A New Director's Transformational Leadership Journey with Armada Coaching
The problem they were facing
A senior engineer, recently promoted to Divisional Director, contacted Armada for executive coaching with the goal of navigating new disciplines, understanding diverse team dynamics, and addressing a speech issue impacting team communication and her personal confidence.
Effective leadership goes beyond communication—it involves integrating new modes of operation, especially when feeling under-equipped and self-conscious. Navigating unknown territory during a role transition heightened stress and anxiety for our client.
