Executive Coaching
I help purpose-driven founders, CEOs, and executive teams step up and lead so they can powerfully, authentically, and sustainably propel their business forward.
Work with me to dream BIG and accomplish the incredible—for you, your team, your business, and your world.
Who I work with
✔️ Founders and senior leaders at scaling tech companies and purpose-driven small-to-medium sized businesses and nonprofits. I sometimes also work with executives of high-growth organizations inside of larger tech companies.
✔️ Trailblazers who don’t follow the rules—they make the rules. While they know that there is no blueprint or roadmap for success— they also crave more structure and accountability towards accomplishing the seemingly impossible.
✔️ Brilliant, creative, outside-the-box problem-solvers, thinkers, and doers. While this is usually an asset, it must be managed and used for good.
✔️ People who are mission-driven will stop at nothing to get the job done…and are also teetering on burnout and know they need to work smarter, not harder.
✔️ Idealists who are ready to be the change they want to see in the world.
Areas of focus include:
Leadership presence
Influence, delegation, and negotiation
Interpersonal dynamics
Anxiety, burnout, and emotional regulation
Work/life balance
Purpose, focus, and motivation
Business impact
Leading with and without authority
Team dynamics and organizational development
ADHD, autism, and neurodiversity
LGBTQ+ and queer identities
And other topics as they arise
How this works
Each engagement is bespoke and unique to each individual executive or organization. This can include narrative 360 interviews, vision, journey, and plan development, personal workshops and retreats, full access via email or text, as-needed coaching via Zoom or in person, and on-site or remote shadowing and observation.
Team coaching, workshops, and retreats are additional options we can explore.
Executive coaching engagements start at $2500/mo and can run upwards of $10-15k/mo depending on scope, business stage and size, intended business impact, as well as how we engage stakeholders, team members, boards, or investors.
Note: If your your organization is not sponsoring, invested in, or paying me directly for coaching, private coaching is a better option we can explore (work can still reimburse you, but you would be my client, not your company).
From billion dollar CEOs to bootstrapped founders to tech executives and leadership teams, I’ve worked with leaders at:
“It’s been invaluable to work with someone who understands my industry and marries that with expertise in how organizations work, human psychology, and leadership more broadly.
“I’m more aware of the stories and fictions I tell myself that hold me back, so I’m better able to get out of my own way. I’ve also been able to apply Donna’s story-based techniques to many aspects of my work — from team building to product design. She’s really helped me embrace opportunities that’ve made a huge difference at work and in life.”
