Message from Lauren Meagher

Managing Partner, Evolute Consulting

As a leader with high growth expectations, you are tasked with achieving impressive results.

Leaders come to us when they need to prepare for a major milestone or ramp up for significant growth. Whether there is upcoming funding, product and market launches, or other major milestones, we help develop leaders and teams that can support the organization’s growth.

Here are some common questions about working with us:

What kind of clients do we work with?

We work with senior leaders in technology-driven companies.

How do I know that I, or one of my senior leaders, need a coach?

If your business is experiencing or expecting significant growth in the coming months or years, it’s likely that you’ll need to up-level the capabilities of your senior leaders. It’s incredibly helpful to have a trusted coach so a leader can fully open up about their challenges and stay accountable to their development plan.

Do you work with leadership teams?

Yes, we often work with entire leadership teams to improve their dynamics, tighten their ability to collaborate and make better decisions.

What is it like to work with a coach?

We will begin our work together by gathering some key data points. Depending on how you’d like to grow as a leader, we may do 360 interviews, capability and preference assessments, and communication reviews. From there, we will prioritize working on the areas that will bring you the greatest impact. Every client is different, but typically there are 3 to 5 main areas of development along with some more spontaneous issue problem-solving.

How long is a coaching engagement?

Most of our clients continue to work with us over years as their business grows and evolves. We are there to support you and think through big issues as a non-judgmental partner. Since leadership development takes time, our shortest engagements are about 6 months.

How much is the investment to work with a coach?

The investment in leadership development depends on the number of leaders involved and the complexity of the situation. Our work is customized to each senior leader, so we can design a coaching program to suit most budgets.

What does the name Evolute Consulting mean?

We help senior leaders grow. The name Evolute derives from using analytical thinking to draw insights and create a custom, action-oriented plan. We like to be grounded in solid problem-solving and strategic thinking to help our clients.

It's rare to find an executive coach like Lauren who can really jump into a leadership team and figure out exactly what's needed to strengthen the team's effectiveness. She created a team development offsite for us with a great mix of education, engaging exercises, and inspiration. Weeks later, our team is still motivated and building on the offsite takeaways. For any senior leader looking for tangible improvements to team dynamics and effectiveness, I unquestionably recommend reaching out to Lauren Meagher.

The best part of our time together is having an open discussion about my issue and thought process to solve it. Then providing open and honest feedback--whether it is agreement with the line of thinking or offering alternate ways to view (and solve) the issue/solution. Having someone not in the company providing alternatives allows me to further flesh out the issue.

I worked with Lauren to determine how I can more effectively manage my large, multi-functional team and build stronger partnerships across the business. She helped me identify blind spots, but what I particularly loved about working with Lauren is that she pushed me to select a few enhancement areas & design tactics / goals to address them. Her approach was to focus on realistically achievable targets, recognizing my limited bandwidth. I am confident that the plan we built will leverage my team’s strengths & enable their continued professional development. I am grateful for her partnership and look forward to continue working with her!

"Lauren conducted a structured audit of my responsibilities that uncovered where my strengths, interests and demonstrated successes overlap. I walked away with a very clear sense of where to invest my time so that I can unlock the most productivity from the team while elevating my personal brand."
