TEAM COACHING
Build Stronger Teams with Confidence and Purpose
Are you and your team positioned to excel in an AI-driven world?
Adapting to an AI-driven world isn’t just about technology. It requires leaders and teams to work with more trust, clarity, and cohesion.
How well are your AI initiatives aligned with both business objectives and your team’s success?
How are leadership roles and skills adapting to ongoing innovation?
What’s level of transparency and trust on your team?
How are you helping your teams to develop new skills?
When teams are under pressure or facing growing pains, everyone – even high performers – struggle to thrive.
That’s where I come in.
Offering customized team-coaching programs with access to the resources you need to grow, my coaching is rooted in empathy with the intention of unlocking full potential.
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.

Team Coaching Journey
-
We’ll work together to understand your team’s challenges and opportunities, as well as their readiness for Team Coaching.
Once we’ve clarified your needs, we’ll co-create a Team Coaching Program that aligns to your situation.
-
In this stage, we’ll focus on gaining deeper insights via interviews, observations, and/or diagnostic tools.
We’ll conduct confidential 1-on-1 interviews with the sponsor, team leader, team members, and key stakeholders.
We’ll also use questionnaires & assessments to assess the current state.
Key outcomes of this stage include a summary of findings and recommendations, and a roadmap for Team Coaching.
-
This stage starts with a Team Coaching Kick-off meeting. We’ll align on objectives, priorities, and roadmap for engagement.
After the kick-ff there will be Monthly Team Coaching Sessions that each focus on a specific area for enhancing the cohesion and effectiveness of the team.
-
After reviewing outcomes, the team takes over leadership of coaching conversations for sustained impact and ongoing improvements.
What Clients Say…
“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.”
