Executive coaching services for senior leaders and leadership teams
VitalAction Coaching supports leaders and organizations through executive coaching, team coaching, group coaching, and selected leadership assessments.
Every engagement is designed around the leadership situation, the people involved, and the outcomes the organization is seeking to achieve.
The work is practical.
The work is confidential.
The work remains connected to the leadership challenges already in motion.
How the work is structured
Coaching is most valuable when it remains connected to real leadership situations over time.
Rather than treating each session as an isolated conversation, engagements typically follow a regular rhythm that allows leaders to work through decisions, conversations, relationships, and organizational challenges as they unfold.
The structure of each engagement is adapted to the context, objectives, and level of support required.
Connected to real situations
Coaching remains grounded in the decisions, conversations, relationships, and organizational challenges leaders are actively navigating.
Structured over time
A regular rhythm creates continuity and allows leaders to reflect, apply insights, and work with situations as they evolve.
Adapted to the need
The scope, cadence, and level of support are shaped around the leadership context and the outcomes the engagement is intended to support.
Engagements designed around the need
The scope may range from focused executive coaching with a single leader to broader leadership development initiatives involving multiple leaders, teams, or locations.
Founder-led delivery
VitalAction Coaching is founder-led. Eric personally delivers the majority of coaching engagements and remains directly involved throughout the work.
Additional capacity when required
When an engagement requires additional capacity, specialized expertise, bilingual delivery, or support across multiple locations, Eric can assemble a small team of carefully selected certified coaches and facilitators.
Carefully selected professionals
Each coach is personally chosen based on the specific needs of the assignment, professional credibility, coaching capability, and alignment with the principles that guide the work.
Consistency as the work scales
This approach allows organizations to scale an engagement when appropriate while maintaining consistency, quality, and a single point of leadership throughout the engagement.
Coaching and assessment services
The work is adapted to the leadership situation, the people involved, and the outcomes the organization is seeking to achieve.
Executive Coaching
One-to-one coaching for senior leaders navigating significant responsibility, complex decisions, leadership transitions, increased organizational visibility, or evolving stakeholder expectations.
The work remains grounded in the situations the leader is actively managing.
Depending on the engagement, coaching may focus on:
- Leadership transitions
- Decision-making
- Difficult conversations
- Influence across functions
- Delegation and accountability
- Executive presence
- Stakeholder relationships
- Leadership patterns that may be limiting effectiveness
Stakeholder conversations, leadership assessments, and development planning may be incorporated when they meaningfully support the engagement.
Team Coaching
Coaching for intact leadership teams seeking to strengthen how they work together.
The focus extends beyond individual behaviour to the effectiveness of the leadership team as a collective system.
Team coaching may support:
- Building trust
- Navigating conflict constructively
- Clarifying roles and decision rights
- Strengthening accountability
- Improving cross-functional alignment
- Enhancing decision-making
- Leading through organizational change
- Improving the quality of leadership conversations
Every engagement is shaped around the team’s actual work, relationships, and responsibilities.
Group Coaching
Coaching for leaders who share similar leadership challenges or organizational contexts but are not necessarily members of the same team.
Group coaching creates a structured environment where leaders learn from one another while applying insights directly to their own leadership situations.
Typical applications include:
- New and emerging leaders
- Leadership transitions
- Peer-to-manager transitions
- Delegation and accountability
- Influence without formal authority
- Difficult conversations
- Leading through sustained organizational demands
Group size, cadence, and program design are tailored to the purpose of the engagement.
Leadership Assessments
Assessments can be integrated when they provide perspectives that may be difficult to surface through conversation alone.
Available assessments include:
- Hogan Assessments
- iEQ9 Enneagram
- Leadership Navigator 360
- Everything DiSC®
- The Five Behaviors®
Assessments are never used as labels or stand-alone answers. They provide additional perspectives that can help leaders better understand strengths, recurring patterns, motivations, potential blind spots, and differences between intention and how their leadership may be experienced by others.
The assessment should always serve the coaching—not the other way around.

Delegate with greater confidence
