Community Access Coaching Program

Coaching made accessible for ALL in January 2025

Welcome

Welcome to ALT + LEAD's Community Access Coaching Program. While we typically offer executive coaching for tech leaders, we believe everyone deserves access to transformative coaching. That's why we're dedicating 60 hours of pay-what-you-can coaching sessions throughout January 2025, open to anyone who wants to explore personal growth, tackle challenges, or pursue goals.

About Your Coach

Hi! I'm Maya Kumits, an International Coaching Federation (ICF) coach. I bring 20 years of tech leadership experience and 15 years of expertise in human potential and peak performance to our sessions. My approach focuses on helping you uncover your own wisdom and solutions, regardless of your background, industry, or experience level.

What I Ask of Participants

  • Come prepared with a specific challenge or dilemma - no topic is too big or too small.

  • Trust that you are the expert of your situation. Be open to exploratory discussion that will help uncover your own answers vs expecting to receive advice.

  • Honor your commitment. These sessions are limited and by signing up, you're agreeing to show up. Rescheduling with 24-hour notice is ok, but cancelling is not.

What to Bring to Your Session

Come to your session with a challenge you'd like to tackle or a goal you want to explore. Whether it's a complex career decision or a simple daily habit you want to change, coaching can help. No challenge is too big or too small. The best topic is the one that matters most to you.

Here are examples of what others have brought to sessions:

Career & Purpose

  • "I feel stuck in my career and don't know what's next"

  • "I'm successful on paper but something feels missing"

  • "I want to make a bigger impact"

 

Growth & Performance

  • "I keep procrastinating on important projects"

  • "I want to be more confident in meetings"

  • "I struggle with setting and maintaining boundaries"

Daily Challenges

  • "I can't keep my desk organized"

  • "I'm overwhelmed by my inbox"

  • "I can't decide what to do in a particular situation"

 

Leadership & Influence

  • "I want to be seen as more strategic"

  • "I struggle to delegate effectively"

  • "I need help finding my authentic leadership style"

How Coaching Works

Coaching is a confidential, thought-provoking partnership that helps you gain clarity and move forward. Our sessions are a private space where you can speak freely without judgment.

Unlike therapy (which focuses on healing) or mentorship (which offers direct advice), coaching:

  • Helps you uncover your own answers through powerful questions

  • Creates space for exploration and new perspectives

  • Focuses on actionable steps toward your desired outcomes

  • Empowers you to tap into your inner wisdom

  • Challenges you to think differently about your situation

 

During our sessions, you'll do most of the talking while I ask questions that help you explore your challenges more deeply. You might be surprised by the insights and solutions that emerge when you have space to think out loud with someone who's fully present, asking the right questions, and committed to maintaining your privacy.
