Our balanced approach of championing and challenging helps deepen awareness, question assumptions, and unlock perspective.

Gannett.Partners offers 1:1 services to individuals and "in-residence" partnerships to enterprises seeking a personalized, transformative experience in a business context. Executive Coaching, as opposed to Advising, focuses on the soft skills that the most effective leaders require today including empathy, professional intimacy, leadership presence, and effective communication. Coaching provides invaluable tools for developing high potential individuals who want to increase self-confidence, make better decisions, improve relationships, and leverage their personal strengths. We work with driven individuals who dig deep for what they want, and focus on executives who acknowledge the inner voices that challenge us to experience and achieve more. Together we'll spark new ways of thinking to enable you to find your own answers, and help hold you accountable to the changes you want to make. Our philosophy is anchored in UC Berkeley's Active Communicating® coaching methodology, based on the belief that the Coach is a Catalyst, and all good managers must have excellent coaching skills. Coaching can be especially helpful in times of transition or uncertainty, and may be TAX DEDUCTIBLE depending on your situation. ⇓ Sources: 2022 BetterUp, Manchester, Inc. ⇓
