“The Executive Coaching for Equity program has challenged me to reflect on my own background, values, and experiences. Through learning about myself, I am better equipped to support others.

“A benefit of this program was the opportunity to receive an executive coach for several months and to learn from their actual strategies and approaches.” ~ Cohort Participant
“I think one of the strengths of the program is the intensity of focus on coaching, developing the skills/practices of coaching and practicing coaching while also being coached.
