One Leader Grows Alone. A Cohort of Leaders Grows Together — Faster.
Dr. Jasmine Reed facilitates ongoing, cohort-based coaching for groups of leaders inside your organization combining the depth of 1:1 coaching with the accelerated growth that comes from learning alongside peers facing the same challenges.

The Pattern Interrupt
Quick Question: Are Your Best Leaders Solving the Same Problems in Isolation?
Most organizations have a handful of managers or directors quietly wrestling with nearly identical challenges ; delegation, difficult conversations, confidence under pressure; with no idea the person two floors down is stuck on the exact same thing. Individual coaching solves this one leader at a time.
Group Coaching solves it for a whole cohort at once, while adding something 1:1 coaching can't: the accountability and shared language that comes from growing alongside peers who understand exactly what you're facing
The real Problem
This Might Sound Familiar
You have a group of leaders new managers, a high-potential cohort, a specific department's leadership team who'd benefit from coaching, but 1:1 coaching for each of them isn't feasible at scale.
Past leadership training was a single workshop with no follow-through, and the skills didn't stick once everyone went back to their day-to-day.
Your leaders are isolated from each other competing priorities, different departments with no structured space to learn from peers facing similar challenges.
You want the depth and accountability of coaching, but need it delivered efficiently across a group rather than one relationship at a time.
Leadership development has been treated as an individual perk for a few, when it should be building a consistent leadership culture across a whole layer of your organization.
None of this means your leadership development strategy has failed. It usually means the format hasn't matched the need, a single training day when what's needed is sustained, cohort-based coaching.
THE APPROACH: THE R.E.E.D. METHOD
Introducing The R.E.E.D. Method
Group coaching done poorly is just a training session with a longer runtime. Done well, it combines individual accountability with the accelerant of peer learning; leaders seeing their own patterns reflected in colleagues facing the same pressures. As a licensed psychologist and ICF-certified coach, I facilitate cohorts to get both: real individual growth, inside a structure that leverages the group.

Reveal
Through an intake process with your organization and the cohort itself, we surface the shared challenges and individual growth edges each leader is facing; so sessions target what's actually happening, not generic leadership theory
E.
Examine
As a cohort, we examine patterns together where leaders are over-functioning, avoiding hard conversations, or leading from borrowed confidence creating the kind of honest peer reflection that's hard to manufacture in 1:1 coaching alone.
E.
Elevate
Each leader builds their own specific tools and leadership identity, while the cohort structure creates accountability, shared language, and momentum that individual coaching can't replicate.
D.
Direct
Your cohort leaves not just individually stronger, but connected; a peer network of leaders who've grown together and can continue supporting each other long after the engagement ends.
How this is different from our Other Services
It's a fair question, since this sits between two things that sound similar. Here's the distinction:
Executive/Leadership Coaching
An individual engagement deep, personalized, and confidential to one leader. It can be sponsored by an organization for a specific executive, or pursued independently by the individual
Leadership Development Tracks
Leadership Development Tracks (under Program Development) are structured training programs delivered to a group, built around teaching specific skills and content.
Group Coaching / Leadership Cohorts
Group Coaching / Leadership Cohorts sits in between: ongoing, facilitated coaching delivered to a group, combining individual coaching depth with peer accountability and shared learning — always sponsored by the organization for a defined cohort of leaders.
If you're not sure which fits your situation, the Discovery Call is built to help you figure that out not to sell you the wrong format.

What’s Included
Cohort Design & Intake
Structuring the right group size and composition for your organization's goals, plus an intake process to understand each leader's starting point and the shared challenges across the group.
Facilitated Group Sessions
Regular cohort sessions combine coaching, peer discussion, and real-time problem-solving around each leader's actual challenges. Group size and session cadence are agreed as part of your custom proposal.
Individual Touchpoints
Brief individual check-ins woven into the cohort structure, ensuring each leader gets some personalized attention even within the group format.
Shared Tools & Language
A consistent leadership framework and vocabulary the whole cohort builds together — creating alignment and shared expectations across a leadership layer, not just individual growth in isolation.
Progress Tracking
Defined success metrics agreed with your organization at the outset, engagement scores, manager effectiveness ratings, or retention among the cohort's direct reports, so impact is measurable at both the individual and cohort level.
Case Studies
Growth-Stage Technology Company | New Manager Group Coaching
From First-Time Managers to Confident, Connected Leaders
Before
As the organization continued to grow, several employees transitioned into management roles without a structured leadership development program. While each brought strong individual expertise, many struggled with common challenges, including delegation, providing feedback, establishing authority, and navigating the shift from individual contributor to people leader. Without consistent support, new managers were left to navigate these challenges independently.
The Work
Through a structured group coaching program grounded in The R.E.E.D. Method, we created a collaborative environment where emerging leaders could develop essential management skills while learning from one another. Sessions focused on building leadership confidence, strengthening communication, navigating difficult conversations, and applying practical strategies to real workplace challenges.
After
Participants developed greater confidence in their leadership abilities, became more intentional in how they supported their teams, and gained practical tools for navigating the responsibilities of management. The shared coaching experience also fostered stronger peer relationships, creating opportunities for continued collaboration and mutual support beyond the program.
The Impact
A more confident and connected group of emerging leaders, stronger cross-functional relationships, and a foundation for a sustainable leadership culture rooted in collaboration, accountability, and shared growth.

Mid-Size Financial Services Organization | Leadership Development Cohort
Developing High-Potential Talent Into Future Leaders
Before
The organization had identified a group of high-potential employees with the skills and ambition to take on greater leadership responsibilities. However, without a structured development pathway, participants had limited opportunities to strengthen their executive presence, expand their strategic thinking, and build the confidence needed to transition into more influential roles.
The Work
We designed and facilitated a leadership development cohort combining group coaching, guided reflection, and practical leadership exercises. Through The R.E.E.D. Method, participants explored their individual leadership strengths, addressed barriers to professional growth, and developed skills in decision-making, executive communication, relationship-building, and organizational influence.
After
Participants emerged with greater clarity around their leadership potential, stronger communication and decision-making skills, and a more intentional approach to professional development. The cohort also created opportunities for meaningful peer connection, shared accountability, and greater confidence in navigating complex organizational dynamics.
The Impact
A stronger internal leadership pipeline, more prepared and self-aware emerging leaders, and a development experience that supported both individual career growth and the organization's long-term talent strategy.
Healthcare Organization | Leadership Team Group Coaching
Strengthening Leadership Alignment During Organizational Change
Before
During a period of organizational restructuring, a department's leadership team faced increasing pressure to manage uncertainty, maintain employee morale, and support their teams through significant change. While each leader was responsible for navigating their own challenges, limited opportunities for collective reflection and collaboration made it difficult to establish a unified approach to leadership during the transition.
The Work
We facilitated a confidential group coaching experience designed to help leaders process organizational challenges, strengthen communication, and develop practical strategies for leading through uncertainty. Using The R.E.E.D. Method, sessions created space for honest dialogue, shared problem-solving, and reflection while building individual and collective capacity to lead with empathy, clarity, and accountability.
After
Leaders developed a stronger sense of alignment, greater confidence in navigating difficult conversations, and a more collaborative approach to supporting their teams. The group coaching environment also encouraged deeper peer connection, allowing participants to recognize shared challenges and approach organizational change with greater consistency and mutual support.
The Impact
A more connected and resilient leadership team, stronger alignment during organizational transition, and a foundation for psychological safety, collective accountability, and more effective change leadership.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your answers to popular questions
How is this different from just sending our leaders to 1:1 coaching?
Group Coaching is typically more cost-effective per leader, and adds something 1:1 coaching structurally can't: peer accountability and the realization that other leaders are facing the same struggles. For some leaders, especially very senior executives with unique, confidential challenges, 1:1 coaching remains the better fit — we can discuss which makes sense for your specific group on the Discovery Call.
What's the ideal cohort size?
Typically 4–8 leaders — large enough for real peer diversity and dynamic discussion, small enough that every leader gets meaningful individual attention within the group.
Will individual leaders' challenges stay confidential within the group?
Group norms around confidentiality are established at the start of every cohort, and individual coaching touchpoints (where included) remain confidential between that leader and me, separate from what's shared with the group.
Can this be combined with a Leadership Development Track?
Yes — some organizations pair a structured Leadership Development Track (training-focused, under Program Development) with an ongoing Group Coaching cohort (coaching-focused) to get both content and sustained accountability. We can scope this during the Discovery Call.
How long does a typical cohort run?
Cohort duration depends on your organization's goals, with the schedule and session cadence agreed in your custom proposal. Not sure if Group Coaching or 1:1 Executive Coaching is the better fit for your leaders? Start with a Discovery Call — a no-obligation conversation to scope the right format for your specific group and goals.
