EP. 17 The Art Of Executive Coaching: Discovering The Balance Between Peace And Performance

Kate Saber, Owner and Executive Coach at Kate Saber Coaching, helps business Leaders reach their peace and potential. Kate is a seasoned people Leader who draws inspiration from her past experiences being a strategic people Leader at Apple, creating internal global-coaching programs at Airbnb and serving as the Head of People at Tilt. Kate shares her process of diving into a person’s foundational beliefs before working on the tactics. Tactics are crucial to enacting positive change, but you can’t begin to move a new direction without knowing where you stand and the relationship you have with yourself. Kate discusses the human aspect of high-performing Leaders and how even the smallest moment from childhood can lead to many Leaders running into roadblocks, later in their career and within their Teams.

Kate also talks about her own self-development journey and mantra of being a well-rested woman.  Self-exploration is critical to being an effective coach: You can only take folks as far as you have gone. For those interested in finding a coach or becoming one, Kate believes that a good coach is not one that tells you what to do, but asks, listens and looks for areas where one can consider being more self-aware and begin to move in a more fruitful direction.  Learn more about Kate at www.katesaber.com.
