EXECUTIVE COACHING

“A leader’s core muscles are strengthened from the inside out, where true power resides.”

Great leadership requires your inner leader be in great shape, which requires a balanced approach, just like your physical body!

Heidi helps clients stay balanced and works on their very important inner leader core muscles, accessing their true power and laying the foundation for success, professionally and personally. The Whole Leader™ workout is powerful and not for the faint of heart. Leaders work to develop strength and overcome problem areas, including people problems, conflict avoidance, self-confidence, communication faux pas, and unrealized leadership potential.

Join Heidi for a Whole Leader™ workout!

Heidi works with business leaders of all shapes and sizes—C-level executives to individual contributors, in all industries (who have a common denominator of people!), in various geographies (North America, South America, United Kingdom, and Europe), using various communication methods (LIVE, video-conference, and phone, with additional e-mail and text support).

Quickly connecting with clients, Heidi uses her keen intuition to perceive leaders from various angles. Understanding the full person, providing feedback, and sharing observations, clients get a well-rounded view of themselves—blindspots included. Heidi strategically uses leaders’ day-to-day issues, situations, and people problems to heighten awareness, reflect behavioral patterns, and challenge limiting beliefs, strengthening their leadership core, foundation, and authenticity.

Client leaders ultimately choose the kind of leader he/she want to BE moving forward, redefining their sense-of-self, and intentionally creating their personal internal Standard Operating Procedure. While working with Heidi, who is guiding leaders to implement healthy Whole Leader™ strategies, client leaders choose Whole Leadership™

STANDING OUT WITH OUTSTANDING COACHING CLIENTS

  • “I started working with Heidi about 18 months into my tenure as CEO, and at first it felt like a bit of an indulgence but I soon realized it was essential to my growth as a leader. In the early days, she put a variety of concepts and tools in my path and they are things I go back to again and again. Now I use the time to problem solve, “unpack” my current challenges, and find a way to move forward on complex situations.”

  • “I have known Heidi Frye for over 20 years, and in that time, I have known her as classmate, friend, recruiting associate, and coaching colleague. If I had to name her greatest strengths, they would be her bias for action and her desire for results. Interestingly, though the energy that propels her quickly through any task is tempered with a keen intuition that allows her to see what's going on around as she moves forward. Her clients benefit from her ability to get things moving, but she can simultaneously offer support that allows them to build their capability. If you want to move forward, get things done, and are not afraid to take on the work involved in professional development, then Heidi Frye is the coach or consultant for you.”

  • “I would never have thought that meeting a professional coach would be fun, empowering, and positively life-changing…but my experience with Heidi Frye was exactly that! Feeling “stuck” or like your words come out “wrong” can be debilitating in both business and interpersonal relationships. Having the experience and enthusiasm of a professional coach like Heidi helped me turn the “wrongs” into “rights” – and the results have been amazing! Heidi’s method is engaging, motivating, honest, and results driven. She gives you real techniques to put into practice on day #1, and more importantly, the confidence that you really can make the changes, and get to the next level. Being able to feel that shift in your perspective, and behavior, are priceless. From my perspective, you could not find a better leadership coach than Heidi Frye. She truly is a genius when it comes to getting results!”
