Advising the C-Suite: What Really Happens When You Coach CEOs
Join host Elizabeth Freedman in her conversation with two executive coaching veterans: Margery Myers and Sarah Woods. With decades of experience advising CEOs and senior teams across industries, they dive into what really makes leaders coachable.They share how curiosity, confidence, and the willingness to get uncomfortable are the real differentiators, and why packaging, polish, and “listening tours” often mask deeper resistance. You’ll hear how coachability shows up in practice, why some leaders fake it, and how the best executives use coaching as a space to sharpen thinking, shift behavior, and drive enterprise results.
Together, they explore:
- What coachability looks like in the C-suite
- The hidden risks of uncoachable leadership teams
- How coaching helps leaders navigate pressure, complexity, and real-time decisions
- Why over-coaching can be just as dangerous as none at all
