Tia B. Coachman

MY APPROACH

I create space.
The kind leaders rarely get, but deeply need.
‍
I create space to slow down and see what's beneath the armor. This allows us to examine the hard things, address what's in the way, and get to the other side.
‍
Leadership is a human experience.
My work is to support people who lead.
‍
I work with leaders to (re)define their leadership style, deepen their leadership practice, and lead confidently with their full self.

Coaching

THIS IS FOR

Leaders who know that their practice impacts both their people and their organization.

Those who are leading through:

uncertainty + change
complex challenges
growth inflection points + conflict

HOW IT WORKS

The practice of leadership is about bringing who you are into the work.

This sometimes runs counter to what people are taught throughout their careers. I’m here to bring us back to center and support leadership development.
‍
Logistically, I recommend bi-weekly sessions with a 6 month commitment, but every leader has their own circumstances so we will scope our work accordingly.

the experience

Together, we’ll reflect on what the leader is experiencing. We’ll name and address what surfaces with the outcome of clarity and intentionality.

Each session creates space for leaders to sit with what they’re holding, but not in isolation.

Speaking

THIS IS FOR

Closed groups, organizations, and organized public events.

I speak to those who are looking for insight into the practice of leadership.
‍
Those leaders who want ideas and learnings that shift perspective and behavior into alignment with personal values and intentional impact.

how this works

Whether you need someone to speak at your next board retreat, a panelist for an upcoming conference, or a keynote that dives into what it means to be a leader… I bring my experience and insights to deliver a message that meets the moment.

the experience

When I speak or facilitate, the energy in the room shifts. It's intentional. People feel seen.
And, either in quiet reflection or expressive discussion, transformation is sparked.

Finding Alignment Makes A Big Difference

When leadership starts to feel off, it’s rarely about the work itself.

In most cases, it’s about the quiet drift that happens when you lose alignment with yourself.

Re‑centering is a practice of noticing when something feels out of sync, pausing long enough to ask why, and choosing to lead from clarity instead of momentum.

“Everyone wants clarity from me, but I don’t know how to give it without sounding like a jerk.”

What it means to lead with integrity in real time

Integrity isn’t just a value. It’s a moment-by-moment practice of noticing where you’re tempted to drift… and choosing not to.
