“Coaching invites successful people to evaluate their current state, understand where they want to be in the future, and build an efficient path to get there.”
Courtney Kent
I combine ten years of consulting experience across three continents with proven coaching techniques to help people achieve their goals faster.
Whether it’s securing a promotion, deciding where to take your career next, or defining what you want from life, I help clients analyze where they’re at, focus on their priorities and achieve their goals.
Services
CK coaching is a tailored experience. I work across time zones and can adapt the frequency and length of sessions to fit your schedule. All sessions are conducted via Zoom, a high-quality internet conferencing service.
I offer leadership and business coaching but often find that a holistic approach combining techniques from both areas gets the best results.
Leadership Coaching
Leadership coaching is for people who want to:
-
Fast track themselves to promotion
-
Define their leadership style and brand
-
Re-think a negative mindset that’s holding them back professionally
Case Study: Struggling to delegate
After being promoted to a senior role, one of my clients was struggling to find the right balance between delegating and being a hands-on manager. We worked together over a period of six months to identify and articulate his leadership vision and build confidence in his decision making to empower his team and ensure collective success.
Business Coaching
Business coaching is a great way to:
-
Define, measure and execute on your strategic plan
-
Have a confidential sounding board to discuss key business issues and solutions
-
Engage your team and increase performance
Case Study: How do we prepare for growth?
After a stagnant business year, an entrepreneur I worked with was looking for renewed strategic vision and a partner to hold her accountable to massive action. A year later, she found 40% sales growth, inspired vision and renewed motivation as a business owner and leader.

TESTIMONIAL
“Before coaching, I felt frustrated my career wasn’t moving as quickly as I’d like. With Courtney’s help, I have a plan in place and know how I’ll achieve my goals.”
Approach
I’m an outcome-oriented coach with a direct style. Our sessions are far more than a discussion: expect to be challenged, expect me to share how I see it, and expect results.
All sessions will be structured and well-rounded, drawing on a combination of psychology, business and real-world business experience.
In our sessions we will use a variety of techniques to:
-
Assess strengths and weaknesses and identify limiting beliefs
-
Prioritize values and define next steps
-
Increase your confidence to improve performance
As a triple-certified Executive Coach, Life Coach and CPA, I combine techniques from a variety of fields:
Industrial and Organizational Psychology
This discipline applies psychological analysis techniques to the workplace, evaluating how you feel about work and relate to your colleagues. It can help leaders understand the context in which they’re operating and identify barriers to collective success.
360 Feedback
As well as self evaluation, we offer the option of conducting 360 feedback with your team. We can then incorporate these different perspectives in to our sessions and identify development areas.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming
This approach can help people uncover links between past experiences and current expectations. We’ll explore how your mind has been programmed to think about success and how this may impact your current experience.
