The Executive Roundtable

The Executive Roundtable:
An Exclusive 12-month Forum for CSuite Executives

It's not leadership development as you have known it.

What if the most powerful investment you could make this year wasn't simply more time in your company, but actually in the depth and range of your own consciousness? And solving hard problems that keep you up at night, with a trusted circle of other women in your similar shoes.

You've worked hard to get here, and you've probably noticed: real peers are rare. People who truly get the weight you carry and the problems you face, who can offer perspectives that actually challenge and expand you, while alleviating some weight, are rarer still.

What if you had a trusted circle of 8 to 10 C-suite women from diverse industries and corners of the world, all committed not just to performing better, but to becoming more: more aware, more effective, more fully themselves? All while solving big challenges that keep you awake at night.

What if that circle was guided by a seasoned executive coach, grounded in the science of adult development, and supported by monthly 1:1 coaching designed to meet you exactly where you are and move you forward?

This is an invitation to discover and elevate your stage of consciousness, emotional intelligence, and mind, and to lead from that expanded place.

If that's what you've been missing, this cohort is for you.

From Isolation to Insight

For over a decade, I've worked closely with executives and leadership teams across industries. One thing I consistently see?

It's lonely at the top.

Inside your organization, the dynamics are complex. Outside, it's hard to find people who truly understand the weight you carry, much less offer fresh perspectives that spark real growth and solve real problems. A trusted circle of peers who can meet you at your level, challenge you, and grow alongside you? That's not just valuable. For most executives, it's missing entirely.

That's exactly why I created this experience.

A confidential, high-trust environment where the questions we explore go beneath the surface:

What happens when you are more evolved in consciousness, emotional intelligence, or cognitive complexity than those above you?
What are the hidden costs when your peers or direct reports are operating from a different developmental stage than you?
What are the advantages and blind spots inherent to your current stage, and what becomes possible one stage further?
What does it actually mean to hire for developmental fit, not just skills and experience?
What would it look like to solve challenges and issues from a higher stage of consciousness?

These are not hypothetical questions. They are the conversations that shape careers, cultures, and companies, and they're almost never had out loud.

In this cohort, we have them. You'll learn from other top-tier leaders navigating similar terrain, gain perspectives that break you out of your own thinking, and bring insights back to your organization that most of your peers won't have access to for years.

Supported in community. Stretched in your 1:1 sessions. Surrounded by remarkable women ready to grow right alongside you.

That’s exactly why I created this experience.

A confidential, high-trust environment where you can:

Learn from other top-tier leaders navigating similar challenges
Get out of your own head and access new perspectives
Be supported, stretched, and inspired — both in community and 1:1
Bring fresh, powerful insights back to your organization

Internal Optimization

Most high-performing women in the C-suite have optimized everything around them. The org structure. The team. The strategy.

What fewer have done, and what changes everything, is turn that same attention inward.

Higher stages of consciousness, emotional intelligence, and perspective-taking capacity are directly correlated with:

Prolonged access to flow states and the performance that follows
Increased well-being, happiness, and mental and physical health
Greater fulfillment of individual purpose and potential
Deeper compassion, connection, and collaborative capacity
The ability to cooperatively navigate complex, ambiguous, high-stakes problems
Higher productivity, higher standards, and broader impact

This isn't about adding more tools to your leadership toolkit. It's about expanding the operating system behind every decision you make.

When you understand your own stage of development and can read the developmental landscape of the people around you, something shifts. You lead differently. You hire differently. You see more. You experience yourself and others with more clarity.

What’s Included

Carole’s guidance has been truly transformative. She helped me embrace the perspective that life happens for me, not to me — a shift that has profoundly influenced how I navigate both my professional and personal life. Her professionalism, clarity, and wisdom have been instrumental in building my confidence and resilience. I am deeply grateful to Carole for opening my eyes to this empowering outlook — one that will continue to shape my path for years to come.

I've worked with Carole over the past 2 years and she has been transformational on the way I engage in the workplace and beyond. I started engaging with Carole when I was a bit beaten up from my prior role and starting a new role in a new place -- she helped me identify what baggage I was carrying with me and work through how to show up in a better way. Over the course of engaging with Carole, I became more confident in my ability to engage a broad range of personality styles (in particular the very aggressive ones), I learned more about my own strengths and how to develop them, and improved my overall presence + awareness in a broad range of situations. In total, I feel much more like my true self and others have noticed it as well. Thanks so much Carole!
