Our Approach

We take a strengths-based, supportive approach to coaching. Our focus is on helping leaders build on what already works, while increasing self-awareness and addressing blind spots that may be limiting their broader impact. We don’t believe coaching is about "fixing" someone. Instead, we focus on unlocking more of the leader's potential and aligning their behaviors with the outcomes the organization needs.

We coach leaders to shift from simply managing tasks to leading with greater strategic clarity, emotional intelligence, and cross-functional influence.

“Executive Coach Leila Ansart worked with me as I navigated the evolving expectations of a complex job, a demanding client and a worldwide pandemic.

Our Executive Coaching Process

Our coaching engagements are customized but typically follow this proven structure:

Initial Alignment
A 3-way meeting with the coachee, their sponsor (if applicable, HR or direct leader), and LIS to align on priorities and define success.
Goal Setting
The coachee identifies 2–3 high-impact development goals aligned with the organization’s needs.
Biweekly Coaching Sessions
Held over 6-12 months; these sessions are actionable, reflective, and tied to real-time leadership challenges.
Progress Check-ins
Midpoint and final touchpoints with the sponsor to assess observed progress and calibrate next steps.
Optional Add-ons
Feedback gathering, stakeholder input, or 360 assessments can be included as needed.

“You know how big differences in leadership styles can create friction at the top?

I’ve had a productive leadership style, and working with LIS increased my results even more.

I increased my ability to flex my perspective and communication with those who think and communicate in a much different way than I do. It’s reduced conflict, built trust, and boosted cohesion across the executive

team—and I’ve been able to pass these skills on to others.

FAQ

How is executive coaching different from training or mentoring?

While training teaches skills, executive coaching helps leaders take a new skill or perspective, reflect on what's currently in the way of them applying it within their unique role and context. The executive coach provides 1-1 discussion, brainstorming and reframing support to allow the person to successfully move around anything blocking them.

Mentoring usually involves sharing advice and personal stories from someone who’s been there before. Coaching is a different kind of partnership with someone. It's more about asking the right questions to help leaders uncover their own insights and build lasting capability.

What kind of outcomes should we expect from executive coaching?

Expect greater self-awareness; stronger collaboration; improved communication and better alignment with organizational goals.

Is executive coaching confidential?

Yes, executive coaching is fully confidential. Within organizations, we maintain confidentiality with the coachee while keeping sponsors informed on progress at the organizational level.

What makes LIS coaches different from other executive coaches?

We’re outcome-driven, and bring a business lens to leadership growth. Every engagement has clearly defined metrics so that ROI can go beyond results that are transformational but can be hard to quantify. Our coaching is delivered by experienced coaches and consultants who understand both leadership and strategy, and who tailor their approach to the client’s needs and priorities.

Are LIS executive coaches credentialed?

Yes. Our coaches are professionally trained and credentialed through respected global institutions such as the International Coaching Federation (ICF), and each brings significant business and leadership experience to their engagements.
