Beth Napleton Consulting

Customized solutions & support for senior leaders

Do you feel like you are treading water, with the challenges looming larger than the results and the rewards?

Leading well requires time, space, skills and tools–and yet the magical Swiss army knife that fixes it all has yet to appear before you (wasn’t that supposed to be in the welcome package?). I help leaders navigate challenges using their strengths and assets, giving a fresh perspective and leaning in with my decades of expertise to help you reach your goals and your mission.

Here’s what those around you may not be seeing (but I know all too well):

Even with the challenges, even with the stress, even with the pressure…you’re still deeply dedicated to showing up and making an impact. And honestly, before we go any further, I’m going to need you to give yourself a bit more credit for that. Because you’re pretty epic.

And, yes, you expected some challenges, but this is starting to take its toll. The thing is, it doesn’t have to. Massive shifts don’t require massive actions, it’s more about massive perspective shifts and consistent efforts (more forest, less trees).

Oh, let me introduce myself, I’m Beth…

And as someone who has been on both sides—from stress-induced insomnia to impacting thousands of students in my work as an educator– I’ve built my solutions with a keen insight to your experience and a high level view of what needs to happen next.

Services

Decades of leadership experience, a killer track record, and a natural gift for identifying root causes all come together to propel you towards the results you want and need. I specialize in developing customized strategies to help you effectively navigate the challenges inherent in leadership. Let’s get to the bottom of what’s happening and customize your path forward.

EXECUTIVE COACHING

You need a strategic partner who’s been where you are to help you prioritize, problem solve, and troubleshoot. My style is part cheerleader, part work therapist, part accountability buddy, and part Mama Bear telling you what you need to hear.

CONSULTING PROJECTS

There are tangible products that you need that you just don’t have the capacity to create, build, refine or iterate on. I create and deliver actionable plans & tools for you to implement and provide partnership to help you see them through.

“Beth’s directness was much appreciated, as well as her willingness to share her own triumphs and struggles in work and life related to her Gallup Strengths. She shared so many resources with me; I learned how to reframe a lot of my ways of thinking.”
-Monique C., Director of Community Engagement, Phillips Andover Academy, Strengths Coaching Client
“Beth does an incredible job at getting to know people as individuals which allows her to tailor her coaching. She also has a great sense of the amount of help to provide at any given time. She will give as much guidance as needed or desired at the beginning of coaching, but then she is very adept at knowing when to start stepping back and observing, and continue to work through a gradual release until you are ready to fly!”
-Kristen R., Teacher, KIPP Academy Lynn, Coaching Client
“My RFP yielded a ton of qualified folks. Beth's experience in the leader seat is recent, which is a huge asset. She's been where we are and have lots of skill and expertise to share because of it. Beth is incredibly organized, well planned, and thorough. Our team left with a clear plan moving forward as well as a detailed tool that we will be able to use for opening our school as well as other projects in the future.”
-Sean D., Co-Founder, Thrive Academy, Consulting Client
“Beth gets right to work and wastes no time. We achieved so many results in our time together! Most importantly, I became more confident in implementing systems that were yet untested by me, which enabled our school to launch successfully. I was able to bounce ideas off Beth and gather her insight about barriers I wasn’t anticipating. She pushed me to prioritize and act strategically.”
-Francisco V., Founder, Monarca Academy, Special Blend: Senior Advisor Client
