Leadership Coaching.
Leadership coaching for leaders who are ready to grow with the responsibility they carry.
Leadership Coaching supports managers, directors, emerging leaders, experienced professionals, and leaders in transition who want to strengthen how they lead, communicate, influence, and create results through others.
As leaders grow, the work changes. Success depends less on personal effort alone and more on judgment, communication, relationships, accountability, and the ability to build capacity in others.
Glacier Point Solutions helps leaders develop the clarity, confidence, and leadership habits required to lead well in the moments where pressure, people, and performance meet.

When Leadership Coaching Helps
Leadership Coaching is often a strong fit when:
- A leader is stepping into a new or expanded role
- A high-performing individual contributor is moving into people leadership
- A manager or director needs to strengthen confidence, communication, or influence
- A leader is receiving feedback that requires deeper development support
- A leader needs to build stronger relationships with peers, direct reports, or senior stakeholders
- A leader is navigating change, pressure, conflict, or competing priorities
- An organization wants to support leadership growth before issues become performance barriers
What Leaders Strengthen
Leadership Coaching may focus on:
- Finding and strengthening leadership voice
- Communicating with greater clarity and confidence
- Building trust and stronger working relationships
- Managing conflict and difficult conversations
- Setting expectations and creating accountability
- Delegating more effectively
- Thinking more strategically
- Navigating organizational dynamics
- Building executive presence
- Leading through change with steadiness
- Sustaining energy and performance
This work helps leaders move from being capable contributors to more intentional, effective, and trusted leaders.
How Leadership Coaching Works
Leadership Coaching is individualized, practical, and connected to the leader’s real work.
In addition to regular confidential one-to-one coaching sessions, a coaching engagement may include:
- Clear coaching goals connected to the leader’s role and context
- Tools, reflection, and practical application between sessions
- Assessment-informed development where useful
- Manager or HR alignment where appropriate and agreed upon
- Progress reflection over time
The coaching relationship creates space for leaders to pause, think, learn, practice, and make meaningful changes in how they lead.
The Outcome
Leadership Coaching helps leaders grow in the ways that matter most: greater clarity, stronger communication, better relationships, increased confidence, improved accountability, and more effective performance through others.
It helps leaders carry more responsibility without simply adding more pressure to themselves or their teams.

Our conversation this morning was so helpful!!!
Our conversation this morning was so helpful!!! I had a fantastic, productive upbeat day!! I was truly in a great frame of mind, nothing wanting or pulling my attention.

Making the leap from employee to business owner has been both exciting and terrifying! Connecting with Ariana has been the greatest business move I’ll likely ever make. She is a gifted coach who consistently gives sound advice for all facets of my business (e.g., marketing, client services, growing my business). She helps me to stay focused on my goals while providing me with ideas that I haven’t yet explored. Ariana gently guides me to work through inevitable challenges that arise when creating your own business. Ariana has chosen the perfect name for her business as I can see my life and career goals emerging from my dreams to achievable outcomes. Thank you, Ariana!

You can't put a price tag on the benefit one receives through Coaching
You can't put a price tag on the benefit one receives through Coaching. Working with you as my Coach helped me believe that I can lead at the top of an organization and to trust myself and my leadership skills more. You created a sense of trust that I don't have with most people so that I was able to talk about things openly. This allowed me to work on how I interact with people who are a challenge for me to interact with and find new, more successful ways to work with them. And helped me realize that not everyone is going to understand where I'm coming from, and that's ok. You were a partner to help me see things differently in my work and in my personal life. You also helped me negotiate the terms of my new job and successfully navigate the transition from one company to another. I found working with you as my Coach to be extremely helpful.

Katie is a talented executive coach
Katie is a talented executive coach with a keen sense for enabling self-discovery, professional (and personal) growth and recognizing your own potential. She does this by offering a unique viewpoint into how you think and perceive yourself and others. The result is the realization of new skills, knowledge of how to capitalize on your strengths and use these tools to become a successful and authentic leader. I highly recommend Katie for those who are looking to develop their professional skills and relationships or are searching for greater focus and satisfaction in their personal and professional lives.
Working with Katie was a coaching experience very unique from any prior traditional executive business coaches
Working with Katie was a coaching experience very unique from any prior traditional executive business coaches. She was able to put forth a spotlight on areas that could be developed so that I could continue making smarter decisions that match my talents and desired outcomes. She works from the inside out. This then led to more fulfilling relationships and work, all while expressing myself. If you are stuck envisioning your vision and are willing to dig deep and do the work, Katie’s integrative methods do pinpoint and redefine areas of yourself, your mission, and your life!

Through our Leadership Coaching work together I made progress toward all of my initial goals for Coaching
Through our Leadership Coaching work together I made progress toward all of my initial goals for Coaching. I now spend more time building relationships with my peers, staff, and superiors, which greatly benefit me in my work. I have set aside time for strategic thinking and have used most of the strategic thinking tools you provided to me to shape my strategic thinking activities. I recently sent my thoughts from one of those strategic thinking sessions to my boss and it was very impactful to our business. I am also stronger at inspiring, recognizing, and encouraging my staff. And Coaching changed the way I look at myself and others in a positive way and impacted how I interact in meetings. I now do planning before most of my meetings and find that I am more successful at getting what I need for my department and in influencing others. I also found documenting my Leadership Vision to be a very impactful activity and it led me to document the path I needed to follow to step into being the best leader I can be. I found your encouragement and ability to make me feel safe to be who I am, very helpful in our Coaching process and found Coaching to be everything I hoped it would be and more.

We are all delighted with your team and I am seeing meaningful leadership growth in our Executive Leadership Team members and Leadership Team members who are participating in the program. We plan to continue to grow and expand our Executive Coaching Program with Glacier Point Solutions. We have seen demonstrative improvements in our targeted leaders’ leadership skills as a result of the Glacier Point Solutions coaching sessions (e.g., improved interpersonal conduct with their team members and peers; improved responsiveness to deadlines and commitments; improved attitudes towards team projects; better and more effective meetings; enhanced conflict management skills amongst peers and subordinates). Glacier Point Solutions’ coaching methodology and delivery are personalized to individual’s needs with lots of flexibility, which has been key to further adoption within our leadership team and organization. Also, we have found the telephonic method of conducting the coaching sessions as an advantage of this coaching practice compared to others.

We had a leader who we gave constructive feedback to that didn’t agree with the feedback. We were able to use some Coaching tools provided to us by your Leadership Coach, and the leader was able to take ownership of the feedback, which laid the groundwork for him to work on improving in the areas we identified.

As a new person in HR, I found it really helpful to take the DiSC assessment and have coaching sessions to help me understand my profile and what it means and how to better work with others who have different profiles than mine. The coaching sessions really give a more in-depth understanding.

Karen was instrumental in coaching me through a very difficult work environment where I was experiencing constant change, conflict with coworkers, and a very high level of work-related stress. Her pragmatic leadership approach allowed me to develop ways to prioritize my work, implement effective conflict resolution practices, and utilize stress management productivity techniques to remain focused during a time of immense professional uncertainty. Karen’s coaching allows you to do some important self-reflection, enabling you to recognize all of the skills and talent you bring to the table. You leave each session with a higher level of self-confidence and a renewed commitment to achieving your professional goals.

Vicki has been very supportive. She understands where I’m coming from. [As my Leadership Coach] she has guided me and offered solutions for specific problems and input into decisions. She has been very sensitive to my personality and this has allowed me to be more open. She has helped me build my confidence and helped me feel energized to overcome my challenges. She has been great.
LC
Manager, Financial Services
Working with [my Leadership Coach] this past year, I learned not only to focus on results but also to build relationships with my team. Jon’s advice helped me to nurture a high-performance team, opening my mind with a strategic thinking process that includes stepping back from day-to-day operations and intentionally carving out time to formulate long-term goals. The subtle change created a win-win situation for me to prioritize my time on the most important things while empowering my team to develop their decision-making skills. Jon also worked with me on time management to lead meetings more effectively and on succinct business communication to be more influential. I was fortunate to have Jon as my coach. He does not just talk about being a leader; he walks the walk of a servant leader.
