The Lane Alliance
Michele Lane

Leadership Development and Executive Coaching

“Michele had a very effective approach. She helped me to take responsibility for where and who I was. I found that with the information she provided, I could very quickly turn things to my favor.”

Rob Webb

Vice President & General Manager, Driscoll’s

Leaders in any organization, whether executives, managers, or supervisors, influence not only the specific teams they lead—they affect the quality and productivity of the entire organization. Any individual employee’s attitude and behavior, regardless of their position, can impact the organization’s environment. When team members look to a leader for guidance, their sensitivity toward an individual’s performance, skills, and attitude is critical to an effective organization.

The Lane Alliance recognizes that one-on-one coaching of any individual executive impacts the functioning and prosperity of the organization. Michele Lane’s legal and business coaching, leadership development, and conflict transformation experience help balance personal and pragmatic approaches to improving an executive’s performance. Leaders not only learn ways to master their communication skills, reduce stress, and find a work-life balance—they gain insight into the unique ways their presence and contributions can affect the organization on larger operational and legal levels.

Ms. Lane appreciates that executives may not have had enough time in their positions to assess the impact their demeanors or methods of leadership might have on a business unit and its greater organization. Problems that arise can often seem mysterious, frustrating, and insoluble when changes and challenges arise. The Lane Alliance always aims to help leaders recognize and address critical areas of development clearly and quickly, at any time, and particularly when they are new to an organization, a management position, an employee structure, or a significant culture change.

Coaching can also be critical when a long-standing executive attempts to reconnect with and reinvigorate an organization. Or when a new recruit to a senior position in a well-established organization tries to situate and direct herself within a unique workplace culture. Whatever the scenario, the Lane Alliance can clarify the issues at stake for the individual and the organization.  Ms. Lane will strengthen the interdependent relationships executives need to maintain with team members, and enable them to deploy their talents and energy with accuracy, efficiency, and effectiveness.
