Interactive Workshops

Picture
During the span of a day, we make millions of decisions. From tiny and insignificant decisions (eg: Should I brush my teeth now or after I make coffee?) to large and consequential decisions (eg: Should I fire this employee?), decisions shape our lives. In the workplace, decisions shape our teams, our organizations, our morale, and our profit, which is why we’re always striving to make better ones.

In these interactive workshops, your team will learn how to use decision science and engineering to make better decisions. These workshops are customizable and can be tailored to the specific needs of your team and organization.

Previous workshops include:
  • How to Make Better, Faster Decisions as a Team
  • Making Good Decisions When You Don’t Have All the Information You Need
  • Overcoming Decision Fatigue: What to Do When You’re Completely Spent
  • How to Be a Better Thought Partner in Decision Making

Decision Coaching

Picture
Should I go to grad school? Should I stay in my job or leave? Is now the right time to start trying to have a baby? Where should I relocate to? Which job offer should I accept? Is now the time to sell my stake in the business and retire?

For when you have a high stakes decision you need to make soon, and want professional help to assess the right course of action.

With on-the-spot Decision Coaching, I can help you:
  • Map out the uncertainties that make decision-making difficult and reveal ways in which you can mitigate your personal risk, so that you don't have to fear the "what-ifs"
  • Clarify what you truly want vs. what others say you should want, so that the decision you make is on your terms
  • Resolve conflicts between what you think you should do and what you feel is right for you, so that you can confidently make a decision
​
Decision Coaching usually takes place in 1-2 90 minute sessions or a single half-day session. It includes pre-work, a recording of the session(s), and pictures of any decision mapping Michelle produces for your specific decision.

Executive Coaching

Picture
For high-achieving executives and leaders who want extra support in navigating the complexities that come with leveling up in your career and life. 

Advancing in your career doesn't involve one big, complex decision you make at a single point in time. It also requires expanding your skills as a leader through the hundreds of microdecisions you make every day.

With Executive Coaching, Michelle helps clients apply systems thinking to shift the microdecisions that collectively add up to the way you perform in the workplace. This type of coaching is perfect for leaders who have tried a number of things without success and are looking for professional development support that is tailored, unique, and specific to your organization, your team, and your life.
​
Executive Coaching engagements last a minimum of 4 months, and typically include twice-monthly calls with pre- and post-work. Packages are customizable. Inquire for pricing.

I have struggled with decision-making for as long as I can remember. During your presentation I could feel a subtle release from the pressure I've been putting on myself to make the 'right' decision. I've focused so much on what was perceptively 'right' that I commonly completely forgot about my objectives - what I actually wanted. 
Thank you for bringing a new perspective to my decision-making process: A way to start defining who I am through the decisions I am making and the peace of knowing that I have been and will continue to make the best decision with the information I have (at that given moment).  - Cierra G.
