Our Impact
To lead means to accomplish your goals while maximizing the experience of others. Our strength is in supporting human beings in becoming more authentic and effective leaders while navigating new and uncertain circumstances, in-flux priorities, distributed decision making, highly matrixed organizations, and dynamic team structures — while leading remote teams, managing complex human relationships, and maintaining a sense of purpose and balance.
Results we get through our Leadership Development Programs
We think the most powerful advertising is word-of-mouth, so along with measuring progress on learning objectives, we ask: how likely are you to recommend this experience to a colleague? We are proud to share that to date, in 2021, 97% of our program participants are “likely” or “highly likely” to recommend our programs to others.
My most impactful takeaway was the understanding of how leaders determine the weather. I often times do not think about the energy I omit when conveying feedback or actions - I now understand that I need to be more aware and reset when needed with the tools I now have.

Results we get through our Executive Coaching
We are going to tell it to you straight, when you need it, and create a lot of space for you to explore your challenges. Then we are going to be right there when you get brave and try something new, which in some cases can mean letting go of something old.
To gauge the impact our coaching makes, we measure change across 14 Leadership Behaviors, 5 Vitality metrics, and 1 Clarity on Growth Trajectory metric. Our awesome Coaching Look Back makes progress visible and supports our clients in articulating their progress and keeping track of their successes.
Our Clients
At pLink Leadership, our team of executive coaches leverages over twenty years of experience working across a broad array of organizations and institutions.
During my participation in the program, we started each engagement with a brief exercise to determine how we were arriving. The intentional act of taking a few minutes to access and share my own current state of being, not only prepared me for interacting with the instructors and fellow participants but it also allowed me to really see how that brief moment of self-awareness affected my level of participation, understanding and empathy. I am practicing this behavior as much as I can and as often as time allows and have noticed that it has significantly decreased my level of anxiety, it has sharpened my listening skills and has created a path for me to be more thoughtful in the feedback I provide to others and more positive in in my response to challenging and/or uncomfortable situations,
This was so different than any other leadership training I've done. It was about receiving information well rather than presenting/projecting information.
Case Studies
We listen for our success in the success stories of our clients. These are stories of getting to know oneself better, deleting old mindsets that are no longer accurate, and leaning into strengths with grounded confidence. Stories of developing others, delegating with confidence, prioritizing with decisiveness, and leading with vision and purpose. Stories of navigating a global pandemic, highly matrixed organizations, “pop up” teaming, shifting strategic focus, changing ownership, taking ownership on, becoming a manager, a VP, a CEO, or a founder. They are stories of resilience and positive growth – stories of momentum.
