Working with Julie has been an incredible experience. She brought clarity, confidence, and actionable strategies to my leadership journey. Through thoughtful guidance, personalized coaching, and a deep understanding of organizational dynamics, Julie helped me navigate complex challenges, strengthen my communication, and lead with greater purpose and impact. I’ve grown tremendously both professionally and personally, and I would recommend her to anyone looking to elevate their leadership to the next level.

Julie is like a campfire; her glow and warmth bring people together in a productive and meaningful way. She uses her skills to expertly lead the group (training) toward knowledge and insight. We’re fortunate to have such an experienced and gifted trainer in our community.

Julie has a magical way of reconnecting teams by encouraging people to step out of their comfort zones and exchange honest feedback within a safe space. Her engaging and entertaining facilitation cultivates cohesion that sticks, long after a retreat is over. Our leadership team is now able to lock arms, support each other, and tackle difficult issues together.

This year was hard. Because of the pandemic, my well-functioning team had to quickly adapt how we interacted with each other and our client base, while not losing our ability to deliver high quality support. As the year wore on, I wanted to invest in the team on a more personal level. Beyond the traditional (and obvious) courses and videos, what could I do to keep them engaged and poised to jump on the next opportunity? I opted for team coaching from Lancaster Leadership. Over the course of a few months, we started to see a change in our approach to work and to our individual professional development. With some reluctance, we shared our leadership philosophies at the conclusion of the sessions and recognized that we are all leaders in some way. Importantly, we came together to support one another on our individual leadership journeys. This experience has empowered our team, rededicating ourselves to our collective vision of success. From the few who embraced coaching the minute I mentioned it, to the most hesitant and suspicious team members, everyone eventually agreed that the experience was helpful to them. I would love to be able to do this again with my team (the coaching, not the pandemic).

I had the opportunity to join one of Lancaster Leadership’s group coaching programs, and I am very happy I signed up. This was simply the best coaching/leadership program I have participated in. Julie’s positive and supporting style matched with an engaging team dynamic created a unique learning experience. I absolutely recommend this program.
