Leadership Coaching Services
Lead without losing yourself
You've stepped into a role that asks more of you than the one before it, and the mechanisms that got you here don’t seem to be working in this chapter. Yon’s leadership coaching services will give you the space to think out loud, recognize your own patterns, and build the confidence to lead in a way that's authentic to you.
Leadership coaching can make all the difference when you’re leading through change
Books on executive presence and generic leadership frameworks can tell you what other leaders did that worked for them. A Google search or a conversation with ChatGPT can summarize leadership best practices. What none of that can do is listen deeply and ask the questions that get you to see your own patterns so you can use them to your advantage.
Leadership Coaching Services
Every coaching engagement is built around the client’s role, goals, patterns, and needs. Whether you're navigating a new leadership seat or refining how you lead in one you've held for years, each path follows the same through-line, starting with conversation and ending with enhanced confidence that holds up under pressure.
Executive and Leadership Coaching
3-6 month engagements, investment varies based on scope
Who it’s for: Executives of small to mid-size businesses and senior leaders at large corporations
What it is: We start with an assessment that evaluates your leadership strengths and opportunities. Then we create goals and an action plan to work toward the best version of yourself in a leadership role.

Will leadership coaching get you to the next level of leadership?
This coaching is especially valuable if:
You've recently stepped into a bigger role, or a more complex organization, and the way you’re used to doing things is at odds with your new reality
You've been told to improve your "executive presence," but no one's ever explained what that means or how to build it
You're moving faster than the people around you, and you're not sure how to bring your team along without doing everything yourself
You want to understand why certain patterns keep showing up in your business relationships
You're looking for a thought partner who'll listen deeply and ask the right questions, not someone who hands you a checklist and calls it a day

Frequently asked questions about leadership coaching
-
A Board-Certified Coach (BCC) is a credential that verifies a coach has met rigorous training, experience, and ethical standards. Combined with Yon’s ICF (International Coach Federation) credentialing, it means you're working with someone whose approach is grounded in recognized professional standards.
-
Yes. Coaching is especially valuable for leaders stepping into a bigger or more complex role than the one before it, when the instincts that got you promoted aren't automatically enough to guide what comes next. That said, coaching might not be the right fit for very early-career professionals who are still building foundational leadership experience.
-
A mentor can offer guidance based on their own path. Coaching works differently: instead of advice based on someone else's experience, Dr. Yon Na will help you recognize your own patterns, so the clarity you reach fits your specific situation and career aspirations.
-
Dr. Yon Na's PhD in organizational psychology means the patterns you explore together are grounded in decades of leadership and behavioral research, not opinion. It's the difference between coaching based on one person's experience and coaching backed by what tends to be true across leaders and organizations. That being said, Yon is known for combining her research with real-life scenarios she’s either personally worked through or helped organizations work through.
-
If you're noticing the same frustration resurface across roles or situations, if you've received feedback you don't know how to act on, or if you sense something needs to shift in your career but can't yet name what, leadership coaching might be a great next step. Coaching works best when you're ready to look honestly at your own patterns, even if you don't yet have the language for them.
