Our Approach

Our philosophy

We believe the coaching should fit the person — not the other way around.

People seek coaching for a variety of unique reasons, so your Emergent Executive Coaching engagement is customized to you.

The Three E’s

Emergent Executive Coaching uses The Three E’s as an original framework to guide the coaching experience. We take the time to understand your unique goals, circumstances, and challenges. Then, we partner with you to develop a unique program tailored to your individual needs. Together, we design the coaching experience that’s right for you. 

1. Evaluate

Emergent uses a variety of strategies, from conversations to worksheets, to identify, evaluate, and understand your specific goals and unique vision.  

2. Expand

Once goals are established, we work together to see the bigger picture — and expand the possibilities of how to reach them.

3. Enact

We create a plan with specific steps to enact to reach your goals. We work through barriers and resistance to integrate sustainable change.

Coaching Results

Your coaching experience will give you as much as you put into it. Be ready to reflect on your thoughts, beliefs, and actions. If you're motivated to change and willing to tolerate some discomfort, progress is just on the horizon.

You might discover a belief about yourself that's holding you back from fulfilling your potential. You might move from feeling trapped or helpless to seeing possibilities and finding ways to help yourself. You might discover strengths you didn't realize you had or ways to frame experiences that change the way you feel about them for the rest of your life. 

With work, your journey can take you amazing places.

Working with Emergent Executive Coaching

  • "Dave gave me the clarity to define what I want in a new position, the confidence to advocate for myself, and the vision to see my future goals in a way I hadn't previously considered. I actually surpassed my own professional expectations after our coaching sessions. I recommend him to all of my colleagues who feel they may be at a crossroads in their career or life."

    —C.B.

  • "I've yet to have a session with Dave that hasn't resulted in a lightbulb moment for me. I'm constantly amazed at how he is able to ask the exact right questions to help me realize the answers to my problems were right in front of me all along. The progress I have made towards starting my own business is all thanks to Dave. I look forward to my coaching sessions because I know that I'll be better after each one."

    —Z.F.

  • "Dave and I set up biweekly meetings to help me discover: What is my life calling, and how do I make a career out of it? Dave coached me in discovering what motivates me, how to optimize this motivation, and how to transfer it into the workforce. By the end of our three-month plan, I was offered a job that matches exactly what we had discussed."

    —G.R.

  • "Dave always knew how to ask questions to help me reach epiphanies. He guided me through re-evaluating my previous job to understand why the role was not fulfilling me and figure out what I was looking for. Instead of accepting the mediocrity of feeling stuck in my previous job, I was able to search and find a position that I was truly passionate about. It was a lightbulb moment that if I was not happy, I could find another company that aligned with my values better."

    —L.D.

  • "Dave’s coaching is intuitive, insightful, and transformative. I’ve discovered so much about the way I think and act, who I am as a person, and how to take the next logical step to move forward. Dave can always get me un-stuck when I’m spinning on a problem."
