Rethinking Leadership Development

What is Multidisciplinary Coaching?

 
 

Multidisciplinary Coaching expands upon traditional coaching and leadership development in these ways:

In Philosophy and Approach – deliberately considering the various disciplines seeking to explain human behavior to answer basic questions about the nature of individuals and groups

In Process – an integration of multiple models to make each engagement more meaningful, robust

In Attitude and Competence – a willingness and ability to flex among roles to meet client needs

In Resources – an ever-growing suite of multidisciplinary tools to identify and solve real problems

Why be Multidisciplinary?

The Benefit for Coaches

As development partners, being multidisciplinary has the potential to create a more competent and qualified profession, with expanded, well-rounded competencies.


The Benefit for Clients 

Coaching clients live in a complex world and work within complex systems. A Multidisciplinary Coach is adaptive, with expanded ability to meet the needs of those complex and unique circumstances.

Hi, I’m Linda Layton

I’m an organizational psychologist, consultant, and leadership coach with a unique background in business administration, finance, human resources management, and organizational psychology. I’m also an analyst, curator of the popular and unpopular, solopreneur, and matriarch.

I partner with super intelligent, highly analytical people, and their teams, who want to master what they already do best and develop untapped assets.

The Multidisciplinary Coach is a platform to cultivate and integrate multiple disciplines into a cohesive approach to leadership and organizational development.
