Executive Coaching and Organizational Development for Mission-Driven Leaders

Work With Me

Featured in:

Every organization runs on three systems at once. Most people are only working on one.

You are... growingmission-led

You want to...

You want to lead from who you’re becoming, not who got you here.

You got here because you’re exceptionally capable, deeply committed, and trusted to deliver. You know how to make the call, solve the problem, and step in when something matters. But you can see a bigger future for the business, and you know you cannot build it by becoming even better at being the person who got you here. You want to define what comes next, make the choices only you can make, and grow into the leader who can take the business there.

You want your team to own the business, not depend on you to run it.

You know what happens when your face stays on every client touchpoint and every important decision. People look to you for the answer, clients look to you because you're the trusted face of the business, and you become the person everyone needs when something matters. You want your team to think, challenge, decide, and deliver without waiting for you to step into the room.

You want to change how your organization works without losing what made it work.

Maybe you’ve spent decades building one business and now you’re adding another. Maybe you’re growing into a larger organization. Maybe you’re preparing for someone else to take the reins. Each move changes the work, the roles, the decisions, and the structure around them. You want to build the structure that supports what comes next while protecting the judgment, relationships, and standards that made the business successful.

Better systems can help. They're rarely the whole answer.

By the time people come to me, they usually know their current operation isn't going to get them where they want to go. They may be looking at EOS or another framework to help them grow, delegate, or get more of the business out of their head.

But changing the structure won't change what happens inside it if the same leadership patterns and team dynamics keep running the show.

I look at three layers at once: the leader, the team, and the operations, because they are always reinforcing other.

You can change roles, meetings, and decision-making and still watch the same problems show up.

You can coach the leader and still have a team culture or structure that keeps recreating the problem. If you want real change, you have to work with the whole system.

My background in social psychology, Internal Family Systems, and leadership work at Facebook and Microsoft lets me see the human and structural patterns that other approaches treat separately.

As your trusted advisor, I bring rigor, humor, and directness. I will ask the question the others avoid. I will name the pattern no one wants to admit. And I will help you turn that insight into lasting change.

More About Erin

Happy Clients

I hired Dr. Erin as my business coach a few years ago, when my company's revenue was still under seven figures. Since then, we have grown to well over a million dollars in revenue, and I recently brought Dr. Erin back to work not only with me, but with my growing team of five. Their coaching has helped us evolve as leaders and as an organization. Using the ILOS framework, we are building the structure to support where we are going next, strengthening the foundation of both our business and our team. I am already seeing greater confidence, ownership, clarity, and alignment with each team member, especially around the values we want to embody for our clients and for ourselves. Dr. Erin brings the rare ability to support both individual leadership growth and broader organizational development, and I highly recommend them to any mission-driven leader who wants to grow with intention.JoAnna W, President of Bill Westcott, Inc
I went in to coaching thinking I needed to build a better business. In reality Erin showed me I needed to build a better me. Erin systematically helped me to do exactly that. And in turn, I built a better business. I no longer feel burdened by my ambitions but have more clarity about what exactly it is I want to achieve in life. My wife also told me after working with them: “Erin has made you a better husband.” That’s priceless. Joe L, Trusted Advisor to CEOS and Founders
With Erin’s guidance, I made more progress in my career and as a leader than I’ve ever thought possible! Erin can see the potential in me that I sometimes can’t see in myself, and they share the hard truths when they know I need to hear them. Sarah K, Founder of Outpass Trekking & Co-Founder of Bowl & Kettle
I came to Erin in a period of real uncertainty. They helped me move through that ambiguity with clarity, confidence, and compassion. Their approach blended deep expertise with remarkable emotional intelligence and helped me reconnect with my values, strengths, and priorities in a way that reshaped how I think and lead.
