Laura is a High-Performance Coaching Advisor with Own The Podium. She embodies the unique skill of caring deeply about people, their development, and well-being while also taking an uncompromising approach to excellence and living her values. She has completed Executive Education at the Sauder School of Business and holds a Masters in High-Performance Coaching and Technical Leadership (MHPCTL) from the University of British Columbia.
Laura leads the Coaching Enhancement Program to "support Canada's coaches in the pursuit of world-class coaching excellence in Olympic and Paralympic sport.” Our discussion with Laura focused on leadership development and the creation of trusting communities where leaders and high performers can thrive. We talk about the stress and freedom associated with building programs as you go (akin to building the plane while you fly it). Engaging, authentic, personable, and highly knowledgeable about leadership development and program implementation, there is a lot to take away from this discussion.
