Is Your Leadership Getting The Results You Expect?
Something feels off. Maybe your feedback has shifted, your vision isn't landing the way you expected, or results aren't following your effort—but you can't quite pinpoint why.
I help accomplished women leaders identify what's quietly limiting them—so they can improve their impact, influence, and effectiveness.
- Align Insight: A focused, 3-month coaching experience grounded in self-reflection and insight.
- Align 360: A deep, 6-month transformation using the Leadership Circle Profile™ to align your intent with your impact.
Align 1:1 leadership coaching
- You move from "I think I'm doing okay" to concrete data about your leadership patterns, how you're perceived, and where you're leaking influence
- You stop firefighting and second-guessing. You gain clarity on the specific behaviors to shift so your leadership feels grounded, credible, and sustainable
- You learn which of your default patterns are actually creating more work, disempowering your team, or undermining your authority—and you replace them with approaches that feel aligned and energizing
- You're no longer self-correcting in a vacuum. You have a thinking partner who helps you see your blind spots, test new strategies, and make changes that stick
What Changes When We Work Together
THE TRANSFORMATION: FROM DRIFT TO DIRECTION
Do Any Of
These Sound Familiar?
- You're capable and trusted, but leadership feels like managing chaos—constantly firefighting instead of leading strategically
- Your calendar is full, but you're not sure you're working on what actually matters
- You wonder if there's a gap between how you intend to show up and how you're actually perceived—but you're navigating without a map
- You've been told you're "doing great," yet you feel stretched thin, second-guessing decisions, or carrying more than you should
- You're uncomfortable with how often you default to keeping the peace, saying yes, or softening your message to avoid conflict
- You know you need to delegate more, but it feels faster to just do it yourself—even though it's burning you out
What If I Told You things could be different?
What you’re experiencing isn’t a motivation problem or a capability gap. It's a disconnect between your intentions and how your leadership is actually landing—and most leaders are navigating this completely in the dark.
The beliefs and assumptions you hold about what makes a "good leader" are shaping your behavior in ways you can't see. And without clear data, you're left guessing, overcompensating, or self-correcting in isolation.
How We Get There
I've designed two coaching pathways—Align Insight and Align 360—so you can choose the level of depth that fits your needs. Both follow the same proven process, but differ in the assessment tool and engagement length.
- Concrete data about your leadership patterns—not guesswork or generic feedback, but a clear picture of where you're strong and where you're unknowingly limiting yourself
- A personalized development plan grounded in your actual context, role, and goals—not a one-size-fits-all approach
- Real-world application with support to test new strategies in your day-to-day leadership and make adjustments in real time
- Accountability that sticks so changes become sustainable habits, not short-term fixes you abandon when things get busy
The difference? Align Insight uses a self-assessment for focused clarity. Align 360 adds comprehensive 360° feedback for leaders who want the full picture of how they're perceived across their organization.
Why the Leadership Circle Profile?
It maps two critical domains:
- Creative Competencies: Behaviors and mindsets that lead to high fulfillment and high achievement leadership (like strategic focus, authentic relating, systems awareness, and bringing out the best in others)
- Reactive Tendencies: Self-limiting behaviors that stem from fear-based beliefs and assumptions (like seeking approval, protecting your image, or controlling outcomes)
Most assessments measure what you do. The Leadership Circle Profile measures the beliefs and assumptions—the habits of thought—that run much of your behavior.
It shows you the connection between how you think and how you lead. When you can see which beliefs are driving your reactive patterns, you gain the leverage to make transformative change—not just polish skills or force new behaviors that don't stick..
My leadership Coaching Process
A grounded, intentional path from awareness to sustainable change
clarity →
- What matters most in this season of your leadership
- The context, pressures, and expectations shaping how you show up
- What meaningful progress actually looks like in your role
ACTION →
INSIGHT →
- Identify a small number of high-leverage behavior shifts
- Co-create an action plan aligned with the assessment insights, goals, and work environment
- Test new strategies directly in your day-to-day leadership — conversations, decisions, boundaries, and influence
ACcountability →
- Review your progress: We analyze what’s actually moving the needle and what needs to pivot.
- Recalibrate in real-time: We update your strategy as your workload or environment changes.
- Stay accountable to what matters most — not just what’s urgent
- The beliefs and assumptions influencing your decisions and behaviors
- Strengths you rely on — and where they may be overextended
- Patterns that support your effectiveness, as well as those that quietly limit your impact
Who This Is For
- You sense your leadership needs recalibration, not reinvention
- You’re open to examine patterns — not just polishing skills
- You value clarity, depth, and sustainable growth environment
- You want feedback that’s honest, nuanced, and useful
- You're open to changing behaviors that no longer serve you
- You’ve realized that your own habits might be the very thing slowing down your team
You’re likely a fit if:
- You’re prioritizing "being liked" or keeping the peace over saying what needs to be said
- You end most days exhausted by emergencies, with no time left for the strategic work you were hired to do
- You’re the bottleneck for decisions, leaving you exhausted and your team disempowered
- A persistent gap between how you think you’re showing up and the results you’re actually getting
- You hesitate to take up space or claim authority, even when earned
Both coaching pathways follow this same Clarity → Insight → Action → Accountability PROCESS. The difference lies in how much data we use and how long we work together.

Not sure which pathway is right? Let’s decide together on a discovery call.
Hi, I’m Lois
I started this work because I saw too many talented leaders burning out trying to lead the way they thought they should—instead of discovering how they naturally lead best.
My work integrates research-backed frameworks with practical coaching to help leaders move from self-doubt to self-trust and from reactive leadership to intentional impact.
I believe leadership doesn’t always need more effort — it needs clearer alignment. This work is about helping leaders slow down just enough to understand themselves, and then move forward with confidence, clarity, and purpose.
I hope to partner with you soon- let's explore which pathway is right for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you want focused clarity and coaching, Align Self is a strong starting point. If you want deep, data-driven insight and comprehensive feedback, the Align 360 is ideal. We’ll discuss this on a discovery call.
You may pay in full or choose a 50/50 payment plan (50% upfront, 50% 30 days after the start of the engagement).
- An invoice
- A program overview for your employer

Common reactive patterns include:
- Controlling patterns (perfectionism, micromanaging, needing to be right)
- Protecting patterns (emotional distance, cynicism, intellectual superiority)

The LCP gives you a complete "heat map" of your leadership effectiveness—showing you not just what you do, but why you do it. This insight is what makes sustainable change possible.
