Leading Business Improvement Plans 

Most Managers can set a SMART Goal. Few know how to help their teams turn goals into meaningful business improvement.

The IMPACT Goals™ method gives managers a practical, repeatable way to identify the right opportunities, build executable plans, and follow through with their teams,  so workplace goals lead to real results.
Depending on your needs, IMPACT Goals™ can be delivered as a workshop, multi-week Sprint, or 1:1 coaching.

Across formats, leaders learn to:

- Identify and define high-impact goals that matter most to the business
- Build execution habits and accountability rhythms that sustain progress
- Coach their teams through obstacles with confidence and clarity
- Grow capability in others while reinforcing ownership and accountability

Who it’s for: VPs, department heads, and managers who are accountable for results but struggling to gain traction.

Why it works: This is a hands-on, applied program. Leaders don’t just learn goal-setting theory — they leave each workshop with goals in motion, plans underway, and accountability practices installed in their teams.
Companies that set goals well and follow through are about 3.5x more likely to outperform peers.

We had Michelle in for a half-day workshop with one of our leadership groups and could not have made a better choice.
From our first introductory call, Michelle took the time to understand our organization and group's challenges and build a workshop around content that would be really useful for us. I asked that the workshop be interactive, and she ensured that prior to the workshop, she had given us resources to review and questions to get us thinking about our topic. On the day of the workshop, everyone was very engaged in what she was saying and the exercises she gave us. 

We all left feeling like we learned practical skills to use for ourselves and share with others in the organization.

My time with Michelle has helped me make better business decisions and take the emotion out of them.
We used Michelle for leadership coaching internally with supervisory-level roles, and through that process, I found great value. I then tapped into her leadership coaching to help me with some decisions leading the business as a Founder and CEO. It's tough leading from the top. My time with Michelle has helped me make better business decisions and take the emotion out of them. Ultimately, she walked me through the decision path to find what was right for the business. 

I highly recommend Michelle as a coach.
