Executive & Leadership Coaching
Longbridge offers coaching services for executives and leaders who are navigating challenging terrain – whether it be a new role or leadership assignment, transition from a department or organization, skill development or addressing a derailer that might be holding them back from realizing their potential.
Our coaches are seasoned guides who develop trusting relationships that help clients uncover their self-limiting beliefs, and access new perspectives and behaviors. All Longbridge coaching engagements begin with data gathering to better understand the individual we’re supporting and their context, challenges, strengths, and specific growth opportunities.
Our coaches also guide clients in exploring and defining purpose, fulfillment, well-being, and measurable long-term change goals. We are relentless about ensuring that insights gained translate to new mindsets and action.

Equity & Belonging Coaching
In addition to general leadership coaching, Longbridge offers targeted Equity & Belonging coaching for leaders.
Our coaches leverage their deep experience in the social justice field to design and facilitate individual development plans that support leaders in centering equity, belonging, and diversity in their leadership.
Testimonials about our Coaching Services
II was fortunate to participate in a leadership development program sponsored by my institution in which professional coaching was provided through Longbridge. I was matched with an executive coach who was fabulous.
Since I am building a clinical service, there were multiple areas in which I needed guidance and reassurance, from building a well-functioning interdisciplinary team to responding to the needs of the facility as well as the executive leadership team.
Without my coach’s guidance, I cannot imagine being as successful as I was. I highly recommend Longbridge for your coaching and professional development needs.

I worked with a superbly gifted executive coach from Longbridge for approximately 18 months. Over the course of our engagement, the coach helped me both lean into my strengths as a leader and identify ways I could continue to grow. Her facility with diagnostic tools like the LPI, and her encyclopedic knowledge of the latest advances in leadership and DEIJ thinking, further supported my quest for excellence. My reports on my company’s Management Team expressed appreciation for the transparent way (thanks to my coach’s advice) in which I shared my leadership journey and applauded my progress.
She has a unique talent for helping clients convey their convictions and visions persuasively, and I credit her with dramatic improvement in both how I make my case for strategic imperatives, and in the quality of the feedback I provide to colleagues and other collaborators. She’s a straight shooter who won’t shy away from uncomfortable truths, and her clients—and their organizations—invariably benefit from her integrity and authenticity in profound ways.
