Strategy Coaching

Are you ready to step up to your next level?

"Rebekah was my go-to advisor when I started a career services initiative. She is strategic, compassionate, and super smart. She supported me in staying ahead of the curve and keeping my enthusiasm up and focus forward during challenging leadership moments."

-Paula DiRita Wishart

Career services in higher education are facing unprecedented challenges.

More and more, campus leaders recognize the vital role of career services in showcasing institutional value, boosting enrollment, and enhancing career outcomes.

As expectations rise, career center leaders must navigate cultural shifts and engage the campus community effectively while also supporting their team through change.

I have not only lived this very experience in higher education career services, but I have also coached leaders who have transitioned into new roles, wanted to improve their leadership capability, transformed their career services operations, who were building new programs, and much more.

Over the years, I’ve developed proven methods to support career center leaders and their teams.

"Rebekah has served as a guide and coach on several key projects. Her insight in leading a career office and effectively working at a large, complex R1 institution and leading institutional-level change has been invaluable. I appreciate her balanced approach of both consulting and coaching as she provides strategic insight based on her years of experience. Everybody leading career services should have a 'Rebekah'!"

-Louise Jackson, University of Michigan

Why invest in coaching?

It can get lonely at the top. As leaders climb the ladder, there are fewer and fewer people to talk to.

Coaching offers a confidential haven for leaders at every level, from seasoned executives aiming for excellence to new leaders finding their footing. It's a space to hone leadership skills, tackle challenges, and make strategic decisions, fostering organizational success.

"I've had coaches and therapists, but no one breaks it down like Rebekah does. She provides detailed education as part of coaching that's worth the investment."

"I found our conversations invaluable – they increased my confidence in the direction our work is going, helped me to extend and improve my vision and develop a concrete plan for bringing it to fruition."

-Jamie Bufalino, Associate Dean, College of Arts & Sciences, University of Oregon
