Coaching leaders on the precipice of possible.

our philosophy

As humans, we’re wired to stay safe - to run from the grizzly and seek cover in the quake. That’s great in the wilderness and during natural disasters. But, we bring that wiring to our leadership every day.

We foresee danger in testing boundaries - so we stop before we start. We imagine honest conversations ruining relationships – so we stay quiet. We equate lack of knowing with inadequacy – so we posture. We protect ourselves so fiercely that we miss the opportunity to thrive.

That seems like a bit of a drag. And, it’s deeply human. To see possibilities instead of danger and opportunities instead of loss, we need help challenging assumptions that hold us back.

At Redcliff Coaching, leaders on the precipice of possible learn to detach from constraining beliefs, favor wondering ‘what if’ instead of feeding ‘can’t do’, identify creative possibilities, access untapped reserves of strength, align actions to values, and demand that fun participate in their leadership journey.

 
 

What we value

Compassion Supporting people to grow and change in how they  lead requires deep listening, empathy, understanding, and care.

Hunger Accessing that insatiable desire to learn, grow and refine one’s capacity for impact is human fuel.

Wonder Embracing possibility, as opposed to certainty, encourages optimism and hope and lets juicy things happen.

Levity Adding lightness and humor to intense work prompts creative insights, gives us perspective, alleviates stress, connects us with others, and makes leading far more enjoyable.

Gut Listening to it, speaking from it, and operating with it matters if we want to lead in unconstrained ways. It’s where honesty and courage come from, after all.

 
 

from our clients

 
Working with Chantal has been transformative for my ability to lead. She is a thought partner who pushes you to think beyond self-constructed limitations, opens your eyes to new possibilities, and cheers you on as you practice new skills. Her pragmatism and action-oriented approach make every session useful and immediately applicable.
— Executive Director, Education Non-Profit
Chantal was life changing for me. She is warm, insightful, brilliant and hilarious; I respected her point of view and her ability to really listen and challenge me directly. She helped me see the other side in so many situations and really challenged the way I perceived certain circumstances and people. She was able to help me recognize my strengths and weaknesses and helped me make a lot of progress with her in 6 months; the change was noticeable by many of my colleagues and by my CEO. I left every session with Chantal energized and introspective. I am very thankful for her positive impact on my leadership style.
— SVP, Product, Healthtech Start-Up
Chantal is impeccable at her job...She has helped me see problems and opportunities for what they are, reduce a bunch of the mixed up emotions and assumptions that affect every human, and finally make and communicate calm decisions. My co-workers and family have noticed and appreciated the change and even mimic the behavior which results in a more peaceful and productive home and work life.
