Accelerating Leaders Coaching Program
Our leadership coaching program helps professionals develop the confidence, communication skills, and strategic mindset needed to become stronger leaders.

Testimonials
“The Accelerating Leaders Coaching Program gave me so much more than leadership development: it introduced me to an incredible network of women whose mentorship and support continue to have a direct impact on how I lead in my current role. The relationships I built through the program have already opened doors and expanded my perspective in ways that have made me a stronger leader. Just as importantly, it created a space where I could be a little unguarded and even silly with peers, making it one of the most authentic and meaningful professional development experiences I’ve had.” – Sarah Chandonnet, Development Director (Boys & Girls Club of Greater Lowell)
“I benefited enormously from the program, particularly in the areas of confidence and strategic thinking. Understanding some of the challenges that women face when moving from tactical contributor to the strategic leader was really helpful – it made me realize that the challenges I was facing weren’t unique to me and were in fact very common. It was also really helpful to hear stories and thoughts from so many women in similar situations, as it made me feel a lot less alone. One of the most important things I learned from the program is that I already had a lot of great skills that brought value to my company – I just needed to learn how to best leverage those skills and increase my visibility and strategic thinking skills. Kim and Ilhiana were great coaches, and I would highly recommend this program to future and current women leaders!
Thank you for an excellent program. I especially enjoyed the segment on strategic thinking. Looking forward to referring women on my team to this program in the future.” – (Oracle)
“I learned a lot from you and the other fantastic women in the program. Thank you so much for such a great experience.” – (Collins Aerospace – now Raytheon)
“It was an honor to be in this training and learning from so many wonderful young ladies who I know will become and are successful women of tomorrow.” – (Coalition for a Better Acre)
FAQs
“How many participants are in the group?”
We haven’t finalized attendance for the current program but we estimate around 25 participants.
“Is there any personalized contact or connection?”
During each session, we have a mix of small group breakouts and larger group discussions to ensure that everyone can participate as comfortably and effectively as possible. This also leads to great relationship building among the group.
“Are there assignments outside of the group sessions?”
There is minimal “homework” outside of the weekly sessions. The real opportunity to apply lessons learned is through action in real-world work situations. We’ll explore these opportunities more deeply in each of our sessions. So, while you’ll be encouraged to try out new behaviors and reframe some of your thinking, there are no formal assignments.
