Corinne Benedetto, PhD
Coach and Mentor
Corinne specializes in decision-focused coaching for working adults in transition. With more than 25 years of experience across diverse industries and career stages, we partner with you to build a personalized readiness plan for meaningful professional growth.
The Coaching Model
The Approach
Our approach is rooted in established practices for growth-focused decision-making. The client’s experience forms the ground of the coaching work. Together, we see growth as planned change in the direction of one’s evolving professional values. The coaching model connects these values to choices about growth that fit you as an individual.
A Pathway to Your Vision
We apply core concepts from studies on successful leadership to the professional growth and action-planning process. Strategic vision, for example, is the ability of a leader to construct a pathway to a clear goal while bringing people together around shared values. The client and coach examine ways to use this concept as a blueprint for professional growth.
Who is this coaching for?
This coaching approach is most likely to benefit professionals who are:
Recently graduated or professionally trained
Interested in entrepreneurial action planning
Mid- or late-career and ready to shift professional focus and identity
Employed yet feeling unsatisfied or undervalued
Nearing retirement or transitioning away from full-time work
Leaders looking to improve communication and management skills
