The word “coaching” can generate a host of emotions, depending on your personal experience with people in authority. At Loftis Partners, we define coaching as simply helping someone become a better version of themselves as defined by you. We use a coaching style that encourages and empowers our clients to internally build capacity for change.
Loftis Partners uses the following approaches in our coaching sessions:
· Appreciative Inquiry: a strengths-based approach that looks at discovering and co-constructing your positive core – what it is that connects you to life, energy, and possibility.
· Intentional Change Theory: a series of steps to identify your ideal self, identify your real self, create your learning agenda, experiment with and practice new habits, and get support.
· Emergent Strategy: a non-linear understanding about how we get in right relationship with change, realigning with an indigenous worldview that understands the relationality of all things.
We also incorporate the activities of reflection, mindfulness, nature, and humor into our sessions.
You may wonder, “Is coaching right for me?” Here are a few situations to consider:
· You have come to a crossroads in your life and need help making a big shift.
· You’ve got a new strategic plan ready but feel unsure about how to operationalize the plan.
· You are struggling to re-enter society or certain relationships post-pandemic.
· You started down a diversity and inclusion learning path and want to discover what’s next.
· You have a troublesome employee or work situation and need a trusted human resources advisor to listen and think through next steps.
If you identify with any of these situations, then coaching is a strong option of support for you.

Before we begin the coaching sessions, you will meet with Sally Loftis to discuss your needs, co-create a plan together, and cover our confidentiality and code of ethics policies. You will need to sign a contract with these policies before the coaching sessions start. We also offer Enneagram coaching for those who are interested in using this personal awareness tool.

“Sally Loftis is a wonderful time management coach. She created a practice with me that reflected where I needed support, that worked with me in my state of overwhelm and pressure. Working with Sally helped me better organize and approach what felt like a seething mass of labor and demands for more. Though she is not Black, she took steps to make sure that our sessions were culturally competent which I appreciated. She helped me to reframe things, to practice curiosity, to give myself grace, to say “no” more often and to believe in the power of my “yes.””
