Your Top Performers are Great at the Techincal Work But are They Struggling to Lead People?

Custom coaching for managers navigating growing teams, demanding clients, and tight deadlines.

I help technically brilliant managers grow into confident, clear communicators who lead teams and clients with trust and impact.

Are Your Technical Leaders Facing These Challenges?

  • Struggling to shift from doing the work to leading the people?
    Many rising managers were promoted for their technical expertise but the very skills that made them great individual contributors don’t automatically translate to effective leadership.

  • Facing friction across remote, hybrid, and multigenerational teams?
    Different communication styles, expectations, and work habits can create real tension—especially when teams span generations, locations, and levels of digital comfort.

  • Overloaded, overstressed, and edging toward burnout?
    Tight deadlines, demanding clients, and internal pressure can lead to burnout that affects productivity, morale, and retention across the team.

  • Communication breakdowns slowing projects and straining client trust?
    Gaps in communication, especially between teams and clients, can create costly delays, missed details, and damaged relationships.

If this sounds familiar, I can help.

My coaching equips technical managers with the leadership skills they need—not just to manage projects and people, but to lead themselves with clarity, confidence, and resilience.

I work with multiple managers within the same organization to build a shared leadership language, strengthen collaboration, and create a supportive network of leaders who grow together.

How I Help Your Managers Thrive…

  • Foster seamless collaboration across teams and clients
    Build a shared leadership language that improves communication, alignment, and team performance—even across remote or hybrid environments.

    Help leaders navigate complex client demands, shifting priorities, and people challenges with clarity and confidence.

  • Boost employee engagement and retention
    Create a leadership culture where managers actively support, develop, and retain top talent—reducing burnout and turnover.

  • Build a stronger leadership pipeline from within
    Identify and grow emerging leaders who are technically sound but ready to take the next step in people leadership.

  • Align team efforts with organizational priorities
    Ensure managers connect daily execution to firm-wide goals, creating momentum that matters.

  • Deliver a measurable ROI on your leadership investment
    Track individual and organizational growth through data-backed assessments, feedback loops, and applied learning milestones.

WHY Work with Collective Energy?

I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all leadership programs—especially not for technical managers. Traditional leadership training often falls flat because it doesn’t connect with how they think, work, or lead.

What makes my approach different?

  • Designed for Technical Thinkers: My coaching respects how technical managers process information; logical, practical, outcome-focused and helps them lead without asking them to become someone they’re not.

  • Real-World Relevance: Everything is grounded in the day-to-day complexity your managers face, from demanding clients to tight project deadlines.

  • Multi-Manager Focus: I work with multiple managers within the same organization, creating shared language, stronger collaboration, and a culture of accountability.

  • More Than a Workshop: My programs blend assessments, interactive learning, and ongoing coaching so skills stick, and leaders keep growing long after the session ends.

  • Measurable Progress: I track growth and impact through proven tools and consistent check-ins, so you know exactly how your investment is paying off.

    “Anna's energy, guidance, advice and view on your needs is priceless. Being able to connect with someone not just as a peer but as a friend can make the world of difference when seeking someone to help coach you. Her words of wisdom are like none other and she always seems to know what to say to help. “

  • - Tax Manager -

    “Anna helped me find my voice for career advocation. She was never pushy but rather gave me ideas on how I could communicate my concerns with confidence. She is great at calling attention to others' strengths and providing specific encouragement and feedback.”

  • - Kyle | Managing Partner -

    “Having Anna's energy in the office was contagious. Specifically related to coaching, Anna positively impacted employee engagement by delivering a focus on each individual. Having team members valued for the person they are and their contributions to the organization directly impacted our culture and team member retention.”

  • - Sydney | Supervisor -

    “Anna has not only motivated me to achieve my goals, but made my goals feel like a team effort. Our sessions helped me to communicate my goals to others properly and to reach for higher goals than I expected. Professional and personal growth is daunting when working on it by yourself, but Anna's team-focused coaching style made me feel supported. Having Anna as a sounding board, as an ally, and a coach pushed me to accomplish things in my workplace bigger than myself. She not only guided me throughout my goals, but learned with me as well. “

  • - Assurance Manager -

    “My experience with Anna was incredibly positive and eye-opening. Before working with her, I often felt pressured to conform to the leadership styles of those before me. However, Anna helped me recognize and embrace my own strengths and positive qualities. Her guidance has given me the confidence to pursue my goals, even though my leadership style may differ from others'. I'm truly grateful for her support and encouragement.”

  • - Stacy | Director -

    “As a professional with 25 years of experience, I find that most days I can meet challenges and lead myself and others to satisfying results. This past year was different. All of my approaches were falling short, in some places, considerably. Anna helped me to explore what had been hidden to me. She exposed new ways that I can engage with my team and peers to create a better culture for creative collaboration and meaningful interaction. The results were eye opening. Anna’s wealth of knowledge and experiences allowed her to take the details and turn them into meaningful action. It was all explained in a way the resonated and did not feel overwhelming. Recommendations were sized so that I could start using them the next day. I can see it already making a positive difference in my approach and how my team is responding.”

  • - Jackie | Staff -

    “I can’t recommend Anna enough. She puts a lot of time and intention into her coaching. She really listened to where I felt like I needed guidance. After taking an assessment and doing a deep dive through the results together, she gave me action steps to use in the future that have made a huge difference for me. I feel more confident and better equipped to continue to grow professionally as a result of our coaching together.”
