BRINGING FORWARD YOUR BEST
WHAT IS COACHING?
Coaching is all about painting a picture of what is possible and moving towards that desired state. Coaching is future focused.
My coaching begins with the fundamental belief that my clients are whole capable people who could use some help reframing current challenges or accessing their own skills and powers to move forward to what they really want.
Coaching is not therapy. If you have questions about the distinction, let's talk.
CAN I BOOK A COACHING INTRODUCTION?
Yes! Please do. I call this a chemistry session. In the meeting, a few things will happen...
1. You will share with me why you are exploring coaching at this time,
2. I will explain what "coaching" is, and what it isn't,
3. I'll share who I am as a coach,
4. Finally, I'll be honest with you in my assessment of if I can or cannot help.
MY COACHING STORY
Audrey Rajnak. Experienced. Professional. Supportive. Certified.
More than any other topic, my coaching focuses on improving lives at work, for individuals and teams. This can take many forms including values exploration and alignment, strengths understanding and application, improving communication and managing conflict. (Hint: While we start with improving work, every improvement has a ripple effect to the rest of your life). My coaching will aid you in creating awareness and taking small actions that add up to big results. I take great pride in the progress and successes of my clients and look forward to helping you.
It was my own opportunity to work with a coach that brought forward an important realization - the times when I've loved my work the most were the times when I was helping individuals or teams solve personal or interpersonal problems. I found that I was intensely interested in the people at work and what motivated them. It is a thrill for me to observe people have experienced breakthroughs, of any size or shape.
In 2019 I made a choice to invest in my passion and build a coaching and consulting business that puts the elevation of others at the center. December 2020 I completed the Executive and Professional Coaching program at UT Dallas. A science-based program, it was rigorous training to prepare me for the coaching profession. I've since completed certification with the International Coach Federation, ICF.
My professional experience has been primarily in the financial services industry working in real estate, technology, change management, and project management. I hold a number of additional certifications including ProSci Change Practitioner, Gallup Certified Strengths Coach, EQ-i 2.0 and EQ-i 360 Certified Practitioner, PMI PMP, an undergraduate degree in Economics, an MBA and a Masters of Science in Leadership and Organizational Development.
