Julie’s coaching is customized to the individual’s learning style, personality and specific needs, and is aligned with the sponsor organization’s business goals and competencies. Julie uses a comprehensive 360 process where she conducts structured phone interviews with six to ten of the person’s key stakeholders, and various assessments that she has designed (values, personality, management skills, time management, attitudes, and competencies). Julie is also skilled at interpreting a range of assessments such as MBTI, DiSC, The Birkman Test, Hogan, and BEST. A checklist of to-dos and benchmarks for progress are identified for each meeting as well as an actionable development plan. If it is appropriate, abbreviated 360 interviews are conducted mid or post engagement to assess the individual’s progress. Julie’s style is a no-nonsense, results-driven approach with anecdotal support and practical tips. Her books are: I Don’t Know What I Want, But I Know It’s Not This: A Step-By-Step Guide to Finding Gratifying Work and You Want Me to Work With Who? Eleven Keys to a Stress-Free, Satisfying and Successful Work Life…No Matter Who You Work With.
