As an Executive Coach and business owner, I know the issues, struggles, and frustrations today's leaders and entrepreneurs face. The good news is that I also know what it takes to bring your own strength and authentic authority to the table and the tools required to become more powerful in your own environment with confidence and control.
Maybe you're highly intelligent and have the credentials but don't know how to become a key player in the organization's future. Perhaps you're a supervisor, but others are beginning to notice you don't have the interpersonal skills to advance further. Maybe you work with several clients or lead a large team, but you don't know how to break through to that next level. I would love the opportunity to show you what I can do for you. Let's put you in the driver's seat and take this journey together.
I offer a range of coaching programs to suit your unique needs.
Whether you need to enhance your executive presence, land that next executive role, expand your leadership & coaching skills, regain your career confidence, launch your new business, accelerate your entrepreneurial journey, or benefit from the private & confidential support of an external thought partner, there's something here for you.
Take a look and find the focus that is right for you.

It's not uncommon to feel trapped day in and day out, feeling isolated and alone in business. The real problem facing top-level executives today is not loneliness. It is isolation.
If you’re at the Executive Level or moving in that direction, to avoid this, you must go out of your way to develop support systems that provide candid and transparent dialogue. Otherwise, you risk living in a protected bubble - an echo chamber, stuck with blind spots and no one to confide in and work through challenges with.
Get dedicated time and space to focus on YOU and your most pressing issues with a strategic confidant who understands what you're going through.
We’ll dig into your real-world opportunities and challenges and leverage them to drive positive shifts in your performance and obtain measurable results. And as your external confidante and strategic thought partner, you'll be able to count on me to:
With a focus on increasing your effectiveness and impact, this coaching is particularly beneficial during times of transition, whether that’s leading through change, stepping up into a new role and taking on a higher level of responsibility, or onboarding into a new organization.

High-Level Professionals | Emerging Leaders | Business Owners | Sales Professionals
Today's professional initiatives demand that you bring more to the table than just your education, skills, and experience. Sure, all of that is important. However, today's top-performing executives will tell you there's more to it than that.
To thrive in your increasingly competitive and highly connected business environment, you must also be an expert at navigating the needs of people. You must have the ability to positively influence the thoughts and behaviors of others so that their actions are in alignment with what you, your team, or your organization needs to achieve.
It's all about interacting with others more effectively to maximize your impact.
If you want to enhance your interpersonal leadership effectiveness and become a remarkable leader, my Influence & Impact Coaching is for you. This coaching is designed to help you cultivate a strong foundation of self-knowledge and awareness and strategically use it to manage yourself and lead others effectively while enhancing your overall professional presence.
You'll learn to connect, build rapport, and communicate in concise and direct ways that command attention, establish trust, and evoke the response you desire. As a result, your intuition and trust in yourself will dramatically improve your decision-making, timing, and results.
Organizational Leaders | Business Owners | Entrepreneurs
Development of any skill takes time, intentionality, and hard work, and it's no different for coaching. Great coaches have an arsenal of essential skills they bring into every coaching relationship, and they must develop and continue to hone these skills over time.
Effective coaching skills are developed to unlock the value in others, and when successfully incorporated into your leadership style, these skills become the foundation upon which you spur learning and growth, fuel performance improvement, and help others achieve their personal and professional goals.
If you're ready to become a remarkable leader who challenges the thinking of others, empowers growth, and helps others find their own solutions and problem-solve more effectively, my Coaching Skills Development Coaching is for you.
This type of coaching is particularly beneficial when transitioning your leadership approach from command & control to collaborative or making the critical mindset shift from individual contributor to first-time leader.

Strategic Marketing Professional
"I first heard Starla speak at an event, signed up for her newsletter, and decided she could help! The first thing she helped me accomplish was understanding that no matter how hard I try, other people will do what they are going to do. I adjusted the time and effort I put into personal and professional relationships to minimize frustrations. It worked, and I am much happier! She also worked with me on how to use social and physical cues to identify an individual’s preferred interaction style so I could learn how to best communicate with them for efficient and effective results. It has allowed for improved communication for difficult conversations and day-to-day communication. She’s been a tremendous help and I highly recommend her to others."
Executive Vice President
"Starla embraces what it truly means to be a coach. She recognizes her clients' full potential and intuitively knows when to listen, when to encourage, and when to push. Starla has been an invaluable teacher and supporter to me and my teams as we have worked through difficult but necessary changes in business practices and communication dynamics. With Starla as the navigator, we've emerged better able to take advantage of business opportunities and achieve success."
Sales Leader
"Benefiting from an executive coaching experience with Starla has been a career highlight for which I take great pride. Developing a heightened level of emotional intelligence and situational awareness built upon a better understanding of my values and natural tendencies has translated into immense personal and professional growth. Starla has truly helped me become a more effective communicator, leader, and the very best version of myself."

We'll begin with an initial conversation to set the stage for the coaching engagement. We'll review past assessments and performance reviews and discuss your challenges, strengths, gaps, and aspirations to begin shaping possible development themes.
With your consent, I will interview five or six people to gather additional perspectives about your strengths, opportunities for growth, and blind spots that may exist.
I will analyze the results of the previous activities and condense the identified themes into a summary report. You and I will review this report and, together, we'll identify your coaching goals and develop a practical action plan for achieving them. Then, the magic happens when we move into our monthly coaching!
Then, the magic happens when we move into our monthly coaching!
You'll have one-on-one time with me every two weeks, during which we'll engage in focused and content-rich discussions and conclude with actionable next steps to guide you towards your goals. Adhering to an every-other-week coaching schedule keeps our coaching conversations and action plans top-of-mind and moving forward.
I'm your coach all month long and available whenever you need me, so when you have an opportunity or challenge you want to work through or run past me, we'll connect in between your regularly scheduled coaching sessions.
You won't be put through a barrage of aptitude or psych tests. That said, I do have a few assessments I like to use to enhance your self-awareness and provide information about your natural talents and strengths, preferred behavioral and interaction style, and leadership approach.
And since this coaching is self-directed and customized, additional materials may be used to enhance your coaching experience if I feel they will be helpful. Skills and talent assessments facilitated internally by your organization may be incorporated, as well.
During your coaching engagement, I will provide support, strategies, and tools relevant to your coaching goals, and you will have full access to my library of online courses, exercises, and coaching resources via your starlawest.com account.
You will be the beneficiary of everything I've learned from the CEOs and executive-level leaders I've successfully coached, consulted with, and been mentored by over the past 30 years.

As you become more engaged in sophisticated business leadership activities, the more you must deal with psychological and relational issues. I'll show you how to manage these issues effectively and constructively navigate conflict.

You'll learn to connect, build rapport, and communicate in concise and direct ways that command attention, establish trust, and evoke the response you desire.

Realtor, Team Leader
"My coaching with Starla helped me to step back and look at difficult situations in a different light. Now, when confronted with a challenging situation, I immediately assess the behavioral profile of the person I'm working with to better respond in a way that gets the end result I am looking for. I've already resolved several difficult negotiations by evaluating the situation first before immediately responding."
Business Development Executive
"Over the 5+ years I have worked with Starla, her approach to executive coaching has brought me both immediate and long-term benefits. I receive meaningful information and feedback that I can act on right away during corporate acquisition and executive leadership changes while staying focused on long-term goal setting and strategic career planning. She challenges me to think bigger and step outside my comfort zone to pursue my professional and personal goals."
