Individual Leadership Coaching | Ottawa, Ontario

One-on-one executive and leadership coaching with Alexandra Salamis — ICF certified coach based in Ottawa, Ontario. 6–12 month engagements for executives and senior leaders across Canada.

Leadership doesn’t develop in a vacuum. It develops through reflection, challenge, and the kind of honest conversation that’s hard to have inside your organization. That’s what individual coaching provides — a dedicated space to work on yourself as a leader, with someone who has no agenda other than your growth.

Eighty percent of Fortune 500 companies now offer executive coaching to their leaders. The reason is straightforward: when a leader improves, their entire team and organization benefits.

What Individual Coaching Looks Like

One-on-one coaching with Alexandra is a sustained engagement — not a series of disconnected conversations, but a progressive journey with a clear arc. Based in Ottawa, Ontario, Alexandra works with executives and senior leaders across Canada via video conference, making it accessible regardless of where you’re based.

Typical engagements run 6–12 months, with sessions every two to three weeks. The work happens between sessions as much as during them.

The Process

Every coaching engagement begins with a thorough assessment — exploring your aspirations, your current context, the challenges you’re navigating, and the habits or mindsets that may be standing in your way.

From there, each session combines deep listening, open-ended questions, and honest challenge. Alexandra brings a direct style with a light touch — the kind that helps you see hard truths without making them feel insurmountable.
