Adelante Services

for Leaders and Managers

Adelante understands the unique challenges facing today’s leaders and managers.
We offer individualized 1-1 coaching packages and cohort training programs to support your development.

For executives and organizational/team leaders looking for external coaching from an experienced, professional coach, Adelante coaching offers a strengths-based approach to leadership development.

Rather than a one-size fits all approach to development, the strengths approach focuses in on a leader’s natural talents and how they can best be leveraged as high performing strengths, while mitigating weaknesses. Strengths coaching supports a wide range of needs, including:

  • identifying and articulating one’s leadership brand, style, and approach
  • meeting development and performance goals
  • increasing confidence, engagement, motivation, and well-being in self and others
  • managing a promotion and transitioning into the new role
  • adapting to organizational restructuring and navigating change/transition
  • reconnecting leaders with what makes them uniquely successful after facing a challenge
  • uncovering self-limiting beliefs and creating new, supportive mindsets

Powerful learning and developmental/behavioral change comes from personalized coaching that is custom-designed and takes into account each leaders’ individual talents, strengths, skills, knowledge, and lived experience.

Foundational to the Adelante coaching experience is Gallup’s CliftonStrengths assessment. With just one assessment, leaders have access to multiple reports, including the role-specific CliftonStrengths for Leaders Report, which offers valuable self-awareness and insight into talent and strength effectiveness, including mitigating blindspots. Along with skilled coaching, this assessment helps leaders at all stages of development to deepen their awareness, appreciation, and application of their inherent talents and strengths as leaders.

Adelante’s offers custom-designed coaching packages that are flexible to meet your needs. We work directly with leaders (as well as their Boards) to create a personalized scope of work. Adelante also can serve as a coach of choice for an organizational coaching program. We have experience developing such programs in close collaboration with Human Resources leaders.

The era of command-and-control management and authoritarian leadership is behind us. Today’s most effective workplaces are those where executives, team leaders, and managers prioritize not only data, goals, and results but also employee empowerment, motivation, well-being, growth, and psychological safety. Exceptional leaders recognize the importance of relationships alongside performance and understand how their actions and words shape a high-performing, positive workplace culture.

How do they do it?
Through the coach approach to leadership and management.

Gallup research has found that employees who receive regular feedback and coaching are more engaged and satisfied, leading to increased productivity and reduced turnover. High levels of retention, trust, and communication benefit individuals, teams, and the organization, while low levels of disengagement, mistrust, and unhealthy conflict are harmful.

By adopting the coach approach, managers and leaders can foster a culture of autonomy, accountability, trust, open dialogue, growth, development, transparency, and equity—creating a “power with” environment rather than one of “power over.”

Adelante offers a dynamic, customizable training course for managers and leaders to develop their skills in the coach approach. Additionally, our consulting services help organizational leaders establish a sustainable coaching culture in the workplace.
