Lori Shook?
Trainer, coach, speaker, author
Professional Coach since 1997 and a Master Certified Coach (MCC) since 2001, Lori has coached small business owners, managers and executives around the world. She has worked with people from a variety of organizations including IBM, Capgemini, UN, Siemens and Johnson& Johnson.
Since 1998, Lori has also been training coaches and training leaders to use coaching skills. She has served on the faculty at The Coaches Training Institute, Performance Consultants International, and CRR Global.
Consistent with Lori’s background in science and engineering, her approach to coaching is practical and pragmatic: she insists that instead of simple problem solving, coaching is many times more productive when the focus is on enriching the client’s internal world so they can reach their stated goals with more clarity of purpose and less self-interference. Recent findings from neuroscience make this approach straightforward and accessible for clients.
