Andrea Raggambi, PCC, CBC
Chief Success Designer

I am a professional certified coach by the ICF and certified behavioral consultant with expertise in guiding my clients to learn more about themselves and make choices that align with what they truly value and desire – from their work and relationships to exploring personal endeavors that have appeared thus far, intangible.

My professional journey began 25 years ago in marketing, advertising, and public relations and evolved into training/facilitation, leadership development, coaching, and organizational change management which is where I have been thriving and geeking out for the last 17 years. I earned a Masters's degree in Adult Learning and Human Resource Development from Virginia Tech in 2006 and have since designed dozens of successful, transformative learning experiences for hundreds of professionals across many organizations and industries including small and large non-profit organizations as well as for-profit industries in the architecture, construction, and engineering space. I have served project managers, people managers, and executives. 

One of the key reasons I find my work as executive coach so compelling and inspiring is seeing shifts in attitudes and behaviors to take action on what people truly want instead of letting fear keep them comfortable or letting someone else’s belief’s of them control their destiny. Most of us are so consumed by comfortable habits we’ve designed to keep us safe and busy, it’s rare, and often feels uncomfortable for us to push the pause button to wonder ‘what if’ instead of asking ‘what else’. I trust and truly believe that everyone has the capability to look inside and answer hard questions that result in mirror-moments –moments when we see ourselves as someone totally capable and worthy of everything we desire.
 

My clients come to me for many reasons but a few of my sweet spots are:

• Mid-to-late career leaders who find themselves stuck at a crossroad because they have a choice to make about the last one or two career moves that will define their career and legacy.

• Managers who feel like they are constantly drinking from a firehose because they don’t like saying no and have trouble prioritizing their emotional and physical health.

• Task-oriented managers who find it difficult to switch from doing and delegating to leading and empowering their team.

• Up and coming managers who want to build their confidence and may have trouble delivering bad news or avoid difficult conversations.

Baked into my MADES coaching model, are the ICF Code of Ethics to ensure ethical principles and standards of behavior. I am also certified to utilize many well-known tools and self-assessments that support client awareness and development:
 

• Leadership Circle 360

• HPTI (High Potential Trait Indicator) 

• Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)

• DiSC

• Energy Leadership Index Assessment (ELI-MP)

• PROSCI Change Management Methodology (Train the Trainer Certified)

• Emotional Intelligence - EQi 2.0/ EQ 360 

• HPTI (High Potential Trait Indicator)

 
I work with clients who are ready to make decisions that make a difference. I invite you to push the pause button and listen deeply to what comes up for you. Contact me to see if we are a good match to explore what you hear.
