An Educator
Coaching provided me with opportunities to reflect on my emotions and socio-emotional needs of my teachers and students.
A Leader
Coaching gave me time to reflect on emotional issues and how to handle them professionally.

I loved having a thought partner who helped me realize my potential.
A Superintendent
This coaching and training is at the very top of my professional development experiences. Personal and professional in scope, and directly applicable to my life and my work. Well done!
A Principal
I had a difficult conversation with a teacher. I was able to take a moment and attempted to understand. Following this I used proactive language to help her understand how children were not first in what she was asking.
Star Factor catalyzes leaders to build self-awareness and use self-regulation to improve relationships, performance, and decision-making.
By choosing personal, professional development, leaders begin with themselves and then encourage others to build their emotional intelligence skills, leading to a creative, flourishing organization.
Leaders who work with Star Factor Coaching develop leadership styles that spark positive change within themselves, with their teams and throughout their organizations.
"My hope was that organizations would start including this range of skills in their training programs – in other words, offer an adult education in social and emotional intelligence."
