She assists in the development of top talent, emerging leaders, and teams through coaching, skills development programs and self-awareness workshops that increase productivity and engagement and further organizational goals.
Key areas of focus include:

- What are their guiding values?
- What are their strengths and how might they further leverage them?
- Clarity
- What do they want?
- What vision are they creating?
- What might be getting in the way?
- Choice
- What options might they explore?

- How do their choices align with their values and vision?
- Transition
- How will they get there?
- What steps will they take to get started?
- How will they be held accountable for their actions?
Ann creates a solid foundation of trust with her clients by bringing compassion, courage and accountability to the coaching partnership. She is guided by her core beliefs which include the following:
- every coaching client is the expert in his or her life and is creative, resourceful and whole and therefore the coach’s role is not to provide solutions, but to guide the client in a process of self-discovery, and;
- every individual is part of a greater system and therefore, it is incumbent on the coach to expand the client’s perspective and awareness around choice by coaching to the greater context.

What Clients Are Saying
"Starting my own business was exciting, but the transition from employee to business owner was daunting at times.
Ann helped me focus on the right things. I discovered a lot about my strengths and core values that will help me going forward in running my business.
Ann is a professional with a vibrant personality. Her coaching style is collaborative and she is friendly and easy to work with. She is excellent at listening and always asks very good questions to make one stop and think.
I always feel inspired, confident and uplifted after our coaching sessions. And most importantly, I have my roadmap."
Linda Antonacci, Lulu Marketing Communications.
-----------------------------------------------
I originally sought your coaching to help me understand and cope with a very difficult and toxic work situation. Five months later, I can honestly say that you both met and exceeded my expectations, and have armed me with tools and processes that will serve me well going forward. In addition, you have provided me with amazing insights into myself, those around me, and other situations I do and will encounter.
After going through the various assessments, including a 360°, plus your uncanny knack of asking searching questions at the right time, I feel like I have been through a life-changing process! I have learned so much from your coaching that it's difficult to know where to start to describe the changes.
- You've taught me to think less harshly and less critically of myself, something that has long been an issue in my life,
- I have a greater understanding of the importance of assessing 'fit' in all relationships; the need to match values and behaviour in both the workplace and life's relationships in general,
- I have always had a hang-up about being selfish, arrogant, narcissistic or being insensitive to other peoples' situations; you have taught me how to differentiate between these various characteristics and exercise more realistic judgment when it comes to looking at myself,
- Your insightful probing and questioning has taught me to judge situations, more for what they are and who is involved, versus making snap judgments based on a more emotional response; this helps with putting down the baggage of the past too.

"I am more confident in my abilities. Coaching helped me to get out of some of my old patterns and ways of thinking that were holding me back. Through my coaching sessions, Ann also helped me to see my inner critic and how to accept my choices and to forgive myself when I didn't make the best decisions. Ann is a highly qualified professional with a strong business background that allows her to provide support in a variety of ways. Ann is very warm, friendly and very easy to talk to. She has a way of empowering people to achieve their goals."
