Build Stronger Teams with Confidence and Purpose
Today’s workplace demands more than productivity — it demands cohesion, clarity, and trust. When teams are newly formed, under pressure, or facing growing pains, everyone – even high performers – struggle to thrive.
That’s where I come in.
Through customized team-coaching programs, inclusive leadership development, and coaching rooted in empathy and purpose, I help organizations unlock the full potential of their people through:
Executive and Leadership Development Coaching
Team Coaching
Workshops (including Communication, Strategic Planning, DEI)
Whether you’re developing new managers, guiding a team through goal-setting, or striving to create a culture of belonging and inclusion, I bring practical frameworks and deep insight to strengthen communication, build psychological safety, and develop leaders from the inside out.
When teams feel safe, seen, and supported, everything improves.
Let’s co-create the kind of environment where teams don’t just function — they flourish.
What team development clients Are Saying…
“Building a high-performing team is hard. Retaining a high-performing team is even harder. When I became a manager and had to build a team of my own, I realized what an accomplishment it was that Diane had achieved as a leader. She established a team culture that was open, supportive, respectful, genuine, diverse, and yes, FUN. The positive environment motivated me to do more, not just for my own development, but to also raise the collective success of the whole team.”
— Mai Nguyen, Technology Manager
“There are few people in your career and in life that will stand for you. Diane is one of those people. Through her leadership and coaching, she has allowed me to explore, examine, and discover things that I never saw about myself before. As a result, she helped me shine a light on what is important in my being…as a leader / team member, a father / husband / parent, and even my daily interactions. I appreciate being able to see what I enjoy about life / work and continue to make empowered choices in that space that I create. Through her coaching, I was able to shift my perception and create an environment on my team based on the principle of “I can only win, when YOU win”. Thank you Diane for standing for me…I know what it is to stand for others too!”
— Andrew Nakamura, Senior Business Systems Analyst
“My focus is always with my team, supporting them and helping them grow. Diane and I worked through a framework that I’ve found beneficial to both handling current chaos of the organization and keeping focus on my team.
I also put some focus on self care and stress management. It was helpful to have someone to talk with and help me reflect on how well I was keeping balance in my life, calling out when a “Saboteur” is at play, and flipping the circumstance to an inquisitive one. The “Saboteur”/”Sage” concept helped me gain a better understanding of myself. I also found it helpful in observing and coaching my team from a counter-productive mindset to a more refreshed one.
Finally, there were other tips that Diane shared that were helpful. I enjoyed her perspective and patience in helping me get to know myself better. Her advice around building breaks and setting boundaries to combat my restlessness have also been helpful. I continue to be mindful of these things and practice them. I leave our time together stronger, more resilient, and better equipped for coaching my teams to be their best.”
