This isn’t your average executive coaching experience
I’ve spent years working with C-suite executives. I bring Chief-level insight and understanding to each of my clients. I served at the highest levels of business, making critical decisions, and powerfully navigating politics and personalities. I bring this experience and hard-won wisdom to guide you through your most pivotal and life-changing moments. This is a point of view my clients are not used to encountering but get so much value from.
My goal is to be the catalyst that ignites meaningful and purposeful transformation within. As your advisor and coach, I provide you with the tools and techniques to not just succeed but also thrive. I have the ability to deliver potentially uncomfortable or hard-hitting truths to my clients in a way that is understanding, compassionate, and in service of their highest mission.
Unlock your extraordinary potential and create new possibilities for your career and life
You already know the value of investing in an executive coach. You already know how busy you are and how little time you have. But you also know you’re ready for a support system: a sounding board to think through critical decisions, support you through transitions, and drive you to uplevel your career and life.
You're already whole, naturally resourceful, and have the answers within. You also can tap into your knowledge and — with my personalized guidance and support — live a more powerful life with personal and professional relationships that are deep and meaningful.
My mission is to collaborate with motivated individuals and help them realize their peak potential by achieving self-defined growth goals in the quickest, healthiest, and most efficient manner. Working together, we'll identify and set goals, and I will be there every step of the way to serve as a sounding board and offer support, encouragement, feedback, and direction.
My signature offerings are below. Not sure which one is right for you? Let me know.

ChiefSpace® Boardroom
Your Chief of Staff looks after you, but do you look after them?
As a senior leader, you’re constantly experiencing competing demands such as:
Leading your employees, attending meetings, board commitments, and engaging with clients.
Your investors and strategic partners can consume hours of your day leaving you little time for creative thinking.
You’re bombarded with approval requests, client escalations, and pressure around deadlines.
All of this interferes with the time you WANT to spend focusing on your top priorities and driving the company mission forward. If any of this sounds familiar, it can be difficult to find time to invest in developing your most important relationships, like the one you have with your right-hand support - your Chief of Staff.
It can be easy to overlook, but just like you need your Chief of Staff to reach your peak performance, your Chief Of Staff needs support to reach their peak performance too.
As a seasoned Chief of Staff to senior leaders at a Fortune 10 company and a former executive, I understand how critical it is for you to have strong support around you. You need to operate at full throttle, in service of YOUR agenda – and so does everyone supporting you. No one more so than your Chief of Staff.
When your Chief struggles, their ability to execute for you is challenged and this affects your ability to drive high impact.
ChiefSpace® Boardroom can help.
ChiefSpace® Boardroom is a mastermind and group coaching program designed to help your Chief of Staff reach their peak performance in service of you and your mission.
ChiefSpace® Boardroom will help your Chief:
Develop the skills to become the trusted confidant you’ve been looking for, who can help you navigate critical decisions with speed and confidence.
Become an accountability partner to help you with your blind spots.
Drive alignment across your organization for maximum efficiency.
Act as a gatekeeper and organizer who can protect the time you need to work on your biggest priorities.
Learn to work powerfully between silos and discover how to influence without having to command or control.
Be a strategic thought partner and proxy to you in every way.
Here’s what your Chief can expect in ChiefSpace® Boardroom:
Guidance from a top executive coach for powerful support and navigation around what's most important to YOU.
A carefully curated cohort of top Chiefs of Staff who inspire, motivate, and encourage each other and are committed to excellence.
Videos and journal exercises that inspire, provoke, and stretch their thinking.
Access to a robust library of the latest tools and resources to keep them focused and on track.
Esteemed guest speakers who share their lessons learned from the top.
What clients say about ChiefSpace® Boardroom:
“ChiefSpace was informative and impactful! The program was insightful into how to be the most impactful Chief of Staff in service of your leader and your broader team. Well done!” - Ann Guilford, Senior Leader Expedia Group
“ChiefSpace pushed me to make bold moves that led to effective outcomes. We leveraged Laurie’s tools and consultation to develop strategic frameworks for improved and effective decision-making, prioritizing, goal-setting and more. The program inspired me to grow as a leader who spends less time in the weeds and more time leading from my strengths. ChiefSpace forced me to broaden my thinking and understanding of how a Chief can operate at their best.” - Kai Mace, Chief of Staff to Primitives CEO
”Our Chief of Staff now has more confidence and wants to expand her role in the organization by taking more projects off my plate, which is exactly the outcome I had hoped for; for her to understand that the role is more than a chief admin, but rather a senior executive with the company.” - Daniel Hostettler, CEO of The Boca Raton Resort
Your Chief’s mission is to serve YOUR mission. When you support your Chief of Staff’s development by giving them access to the resources and support they need to thrive, your agenda thrives as well.
An unsupported Chief can quickly become overwhelmed and ineffective – and may even become frustrated enough to leave the company. In my 27+ years of experience, I’ve seen it happen many times. This is why your Chief of Staff must have access to the support they need to serve you and be successful.
An investment in your Chief of Staff is an investment in you and your mission. Enroll your Chief in ChiefSpace® Boardroom now and ensure you are BOTH set up for success.

Behind Every Great Leader is an equally powerful; #2
This bespoke coaching engagement is designed for you AND your Chief of Staff, as a pair. Together you’ll work on what’s most important to your mission.
It's no secret that the relationship between an executive and their Chief of Staff is one of the most important in business. Across industries and throughout history, we see powerful pairs everywhere (pilot and co-pilot, surgeon and nurse, golfer and caddy, etc). Why should it be any different in business?
Your relationship with your Chief of Staff is your biggest opportunity AND your secret weapon. When ignited and optimized, the relationship is magical and can drive meaningful impact such as:
Employees and teams become more aligned and engaged.
Processes and operations are streamlined and missions are reached faster.
Decisions are made more effectively and confidently.
Your success ripples outward and amplifies the performance of the entire senior leadership team.
No two power pairs are alike, just as no two missions are alike. Each relationship dynamic is unique and requires a strong foundation and nurturing to thrive. This is the space I navigate with you. I know how both parties work and think AND I help remove the obstacles in your way so you can both succeed.
I’ll help you fine-tune your communications together, build unshakeable trust, set clear expectations, and create action plans that allow both of you to be successful and drive high impact. Your Chief of Staff will become the strategic thought partner you need to lead effectively and powerfully and I’ll help you unlock the kind of business chemistry that carries that magic into the boardroom.

Through private and joint coaching sessions, I’ll help you gain the traction and momentum you need to execute your key priorities and drive strong results, all while getting hours back in your day to focus on the things that matter most.
