One-on-One Coaching
![](https://forwardpike.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Services-11-Coaching-1024x684.png)
It’s critical that you have the skills, qualities, values, attributes and demonstrated behaviours to effectively lead your organization now and into the future. One-on-one coaching provides individualized, highly customized support in a trusting, confidential environment. Coaching is partnering with you in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires you to maximize your personal and professional potential. Using a holistic approach–that works with you as a whole, not just your problems–we’ll explore your personal business-related aspirations, more productive team interactions and enhanced interpersonal behaviours, allowing you to lead with more ease and grace.
“Darcie brings everything she has to coaching. Her passion, knowledge and ability to meet me where I was at, was truly inspirational. I don’t think she fully realizes the positive impact that she’s had on my development. I left every meeting feeling better and more empowered as a person and as a leader.” ~ M.Z.
Psychometric Assessment

Understanding your strengths, challenges and behaviour patterns is the most effective way to tailor your development plan. Using valid, reliable psychometric instruments we will measure factors like behaviour, motivational drivers, personality, natural talent and emotional intelligence. Most people are unaware of how different they are from others when it comes to what they place emphasis on, how much satisfaction they gain from various areas of work and life and how their traits compare to the average professional population. This relevant and insightful feedback will help create a constructive plan with results presented thoughtfully, thoroughly and with the utmost empathy.
“My 360 briefing was excellent. This was probably the most valuable coaching I’ve had with respect to performance and leadership and attests to Darcie’s understanding of the subject matter, method of delivery and ability to connect at a personal level.” ~ T.I.
Peer Group Coaching

Peer coaching is the solution to leverage collective knowledge of a small group of your colleagues, none of whom have oversight or authority over the others. Within these dynamics, you share insights, feedback, challenges, practices and provide accountability. As a group coach, I provide structure and focus, valuable learning content and trust to ensure involvement in a supportive environment. As a result, connection is fostered and tacit knowledge is shared in a space that encourages communication and collaboration, developing leadership skills. Group assessment can open up conversation on topics you need to explore. Proven effective and enjoyable, peer group coaching is also a great way to strengthen your network!
“The sessions were packed with a lot of valuable information in combination with interactive learning and coaching with other participants. Darcie always delivers in an organized, engaging, empathetic and successful way. She is a great coach and facilitator who achieves the required outcome.” ~ L.O.
Team Coaching

Team coaching develops and boosts communication, trust, influence, resilience, change adaptability and problem solving. Misalignment within teams is common and left unresolved, it can cause them to derail. Even moderate levels of conflict can negatively impact productivity and engagement. In our partnership, I’ll foster expression of perceptions, concerns, beliefs, hopes and suggestions using a co-creative and reflective process that focuses on team dynamics and relationships. I’ll inspire participation and contribution so the team will unite on norms, objectives and commitments. The result is room for diverse perspectives and mutual understanding so you can reach your common purpose and accelerate performance.
“Darcie coached our team to help us learn each others’ strengths and internal drivers so we could improve communication and allocate work more effectively by understanding what others love, what they are drawn to and what their preferences are. We’re more aligned because we know each other so much better.” ~ M.S.
Leadership Program Advisory

To guarantee that your program is robust, multi-faceted and addresses formal, social and experiential learning modalities, you need a systemic approach to program design. Every leadership and career development program requires an intentional strategy tailored to the meet your desired objectives, performance improvement measures and organizational outcomes. The best learning program strategies don’t make evaluation an afterthought. To realize maximum impact from your program, start with the end in mind. If you are an HR leader, organizational development specialist or instructional designer, I will ensure your programs align individual capability building with skill transfer to the workplace and organizational results, so you get optimum return on investment.
“Darcie advised our HR team on the design of a new comprehensive leadership development program for our managers. It ended up being stronger and more interesting than anything we had in the past. Her extensive knowledge of various assessment instruments and how to bring those in, took it to the next level.” ~ F.B.
