I am so honored to announce that my book “Coach To ALIGN: Building Empowered Teams Together” has won two “The BookFest Book Awards – Fall 2025 (Bronze)” in the following non-fiction categories.
– Business Leadership – Professional Growth
– Business Leadership – Leadership & Management
Coach To ALIGN introduces four distinct personalities that shape coaching: Feelers, Thinkers, Controllers, and Entertainers, along with the ALIGN Coaching Model, the On-the-Spot ALIGNment Form, and the ALIGN Coaching Roadmap. The ALIGN Coaching Roadmap is a dynamic two-way communication tool created for leaders who want to empower team members to own and drive their success.
The ALIGN Coaching Model framework centers on leadership expressed through positive, engaging dialogues where coach and team member are equal participants in the growth journey. It replaces top-down feedback with collaborative conversations that build genuine accountability and continuous improvement. At the heart of the system is ALIGN — Analyze Behaviors, Leverage Relationships, Inquire, Gain Next Steps, and New Commitment — the guiding principles that shape every interaction and make ALIGNment possible.
