Coaching
I specialize in coaching around the intersection of leadership and communication. For entrepreneurs/solopreneurs, typically this means coaching around helping them establish themselves as recognized experts in their field. For executives working inside corporations, this often focuses around how to communicate their vision more effectively with internal and external stakeholders.
“I have worked with Dorie in a private coaching capacity for several years. She helped me focus my efforts in a crowded and competitive environment, and differentiate myself through my ideas. Since we began working together, I’ve become a regular contributor to the Harvard Business Review and have written for other prominent publications, including Inc. and Forbes. I’ve also become a frequent guest on many podcasts. This strategic approach has enabled me to become far more successful in closing business, because clients recognize the value and credibility of this intellectual capital. Dorie has been instrumental in this process and I highly recommend working with her.”
– Anne Sugar, Harvard Business Review and Forbes Contributor
“I learned about Dorie through reading her first 2 books, Reinventing You and Stand Out. When I read on her website she was accepting clients who were seeking a business coach, I jumped at the opportunity. This has been a transformative experience for me. Dorie has the ability to absorb your life story and where you want to go, and then create a path for you to accomplish your goals. I know working with Dorie has saved me years in getting from where I started, to where I am now in my business. It’s like she sees where you are in the maze, and because she has gone through it before you, she is able to tell you where to turn and what to avoid. What drew me to Dorie besides vast knowledge of business start-ups, was her undeniable integrity. She holds the coaching relationship with you as if she had a fiduciary duty to your dreams.”
– Chip Massey, Consultant and former FBI Hostage Negotiator
“My business came to a standstill when the pandemic hit. With Dorie as my coach, I tested out a new idea, then quickly created new content, sought out social proof, and made sure my network knew how my business had shifted. Within 8 months, I had completely reinvented myself and reached six-figures through revenue streams that had not existed prior to April 2020.”
