What is Leadership Coaching?
At UNC Health, leadership coaching comes from the perspective that every teammate is a leader; we are all leading collectively within our teams and leading ourselves. This perspective aligns with our organizational value of Leading the Way.
Leadership coaching is an experiential process that involves a confidential partnership between a leadership coach and YOU. It is a thought-provoking and creative process designed to maximize your potential and address your specific personal and professional goals.
What ONE UNC Health teammates say about their coaching experience:
