Coaching
Maxady’s coaching services help you navigate uncertainty, embrace your strengths, and build a career you love.
As a CliftonStrengths certified coach, Colleen has empowered clients to craft a career and life that aligns with core values. The team at Maxady now shares this approach, which is equal parts exploratory and practical, where you’ll be given the freedom to try on new ideas while receiving real-world insights from our decades of coaching.
While we bring CliftonStrengths to everything we do, we tend to coach individuals in one of two avenues:
Executive Coaching
As a senior leader, you’re likely so busy “doing” that you don’t have time to reflect on your leadership style. That’s where Maxady’s executive coaching comes in. We create a safe space to identify, clarify, and embody the type of leader you’d like to become.
Here’s what you can expect:
Education on how to harness your unique talents that we find through the CliftonStrengths assessment (formerly StrengthsFinder)
Thoughtful discussions about your desired leadership trajectory
Dedicated time for reflection to learn from your day-to-day interactions
Feedback on maximizing your productivity
A mutual clarification of your values and how to live by them
Insightful counsel on challenging leadership situations unique to you
Proven tactics to help you build, manage, and lead teams
And more. You’ll leave each session inspired to make a mark on your organization and life in a way that’s unique to you.
Career Coaching
You deserve a fulfilling career that fuels you. With Maxady’s career coaching services, we help you become unstuck internally and externally with navigating your career. Whether you’d like to reconfigure your existing job to align with your strengths or make a leap to something new, we’re in your court to help you strategically craft your next move.
In our sessions, we often cover:
Understanding the disconnect between your strengths (assessed through CliftonStrengths / StrengthsFinder) and your current role
Determining how to rebuild your current role to fit your values
Envisioning possible career changes and logical next steps
Sharing tactical guidance on applying your talents (through CliftonStrengths / StrengthsFinder)
Encouragement to pursue a career that brings you joy
Repositioning your online profiles to demonstrate your unique essence
Creating concrete career goals with steps to make it happen
Every session and every client is unique, and we will cater our meetings specifically to you. We hope to empower you with practical tools and confidence to take the leap and build a career you love!

I accepted the offer today! They came back with an extra week of vacation and another $100 a week so I'm happy. I really feel like the department head advocated for me, which is something that was sorely missing from my last role so that also helped seal the deal.
— Rachel
“I know I talked about how working with you helped me prepare for this next move, but I don’t think I explicitly said THANK YOU. I’m grateful for your expertise, experience and support over the last few months.”
— Stacey
