Meet Toni
Leadership and Life Coach
About Toni
We begin the coaching journey where you are, identify your strengths, and work towards your goals. We will discover what you do best, learn how to use your talents to accomplish what is most important to you. Together we will design our working agreement.
I am passionate about empowering people to grow their mindsets. My personal qualities, courage, risk-taking, curiosity, and maturity. I use those strengths to guide you toward realizing your dreams. My style of coaching is confident and straight forward. I excel at partnering with clients to explore what is standing in the way while holding respect for their desired outcome. I challenge assumptions to expand your thinking and break free from your comfort zone into the stretch zone. That is where the magic happens.
In team coaching, I guide teams to build trust and work collectively. In my experience, team relationships built on trust can move mountains.
In addition to being an ICF Professional Certified Coach, I hold certificates from nationally recognized programs for creative change:
Center for Creative Leadership – Boundary Spanning Leadership
ICAgile Certified Professional – Leading with Agility (ICP-LEA)
International Coaching Federation- Certified Coach
Technology of Participation (ToP)® Facilitation and Strategic Planning
Boundary Spanning Leadership
Leading with Agility
(ICP-LEA)
Certified Coach
Certified Facilitator
My work includes national speaking engagements, training, research, and publications. I have over 20 years of leadership development and program management experience. An entrepreneur at heart, I bring a unique view of a successful small business owner. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry from Ramapo College and a Master of Public Health degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Testimonials
Rebecca P.
Toni is awesome. She leads you to the answer without telling you the answer. With her help I produced great solutions for issues I've been dealing with.
Steve J.
A fabulous mix of understanding/listening/emotional support AND very targeted, specific tactics and goals for moving forward during a time of transition and growth.
Krishna S.
Through your listening and reflecting we can hear ourselves.
Colleen N.
Speaking with our coach yesterday allowed me to zero in on the most critical things we desire for our new hire. The ability to reflect on what lessons we have learned and what changes, if any, will we need to make as we move forward seems so simple, however without this coaching session-I believe we would have labored this for days without getting to the same clarity. Extremely valuable experience.
Greg S.
It is always valuable to have an outside perspective, as well as the push to think about and define things more clearly. I look forward to these coaching calls.
Nicole T.
Toni coached me to realize employers need my skill set and encouraged me to tap into what my goal is. This has been a game changer for me and the vision for my future. I'll continue to be grateful.
