FOR EXECUTIVES
1:1 Coaching for Black Women Executives
with Laura Knights (Founder of Black Woman Leading)
Lead powerfully. Lean into authenticity. Rest in wholeness. Rise unapologetically.
As a Black woman in an executive-level role, you’re carrying vision, responsibility, and often, the invisible weight of being first or only. 1:1 coaching offers a space to exhale, realign, and lead from a place of both power and wholeness as you navigate challenges and continue to grow as a strategic leader.
This isn’t generic leadership coaching.
It’s a space made for Black women leading at the highest levels—where your whole self is seen, your power is honored, and your leadership is supported with both strategy and soul. Laura takes a client-centered coaching approach driven by your needs and priorities.

Together, we'll blend:
Pure Coaching – Deep, intentional conversations that reconnect you to your wisdom to help you find answers to your pressing challenges.
Thought Partnership – Strategic, nuanced support for real-time leadership decisions infused with my insights from working with executives from all over the world
Leadership Learning – Research-based tools and practices tailored to your brilliance and your unique context as a Black woman.
This is heart work and head work—for the leader you are and the legacy you’re building.
Details:
Executive coaching with Laura is a minimum three-month commitment (options from 3-12 months) with two coaching sessions per month and some additional support features. Sessions are usually on a set recurring biweekly schedule. After the initial program, there is an option to renew for another sequence if desired.
The program includes the following components:
- 30-minute jumpstart call to get aligned on your current strengths/challenge/goals, establish focus areas for the coaching program, decide the best behavioral assessment for your needs, discuss relevant preparation exercises for the program, and confirm the coaching schedule.
- One behavioral assessment and personalized report (Options: DISC 360, DISC Leader, Emotional Intelligence, Leadership Effectiveness 360)
- Two coaching sessions per month. Six total sessions for the three month program, 12 total sessions for a six-month session, etc. Please note: the initial coaching session is 90-minutes in duration because it will include a debrief of your assessment results and goal planning conversation. The remaining sessions in the program are 60-minutes in duration. Coaching sessions are facilitated via Zoom video conferencing.
- Written recap with highlighted action steps via email after every session
- Additional curated resources that support the goals you are working on. This may include short videos, exercises, reflection prompts, worksheets, articles/readings, etc. that you can access at your convenience during the program as a self-study.
