Coaching & Transformation at Work

 

Regan Caruthers leads OceansThree coaching services, helping clients elevate their performance, more deeply align their lives and work with their values, or find their path, while reducing internal stress and noise. Regan believes that the insights one needs to make constructive, transformative changes reside within, yet those insights are often inaccessible due to internal and external roadblocks. Regan’s coaching provides easy to access tools and strategies that if applied to daily life lead to personal transformation and more effective, fulfilling performance at work.

“As a coach, her work is professional and career oriented, but the questions she asks, if answered fully and honestly, touch all aspects of your life. Regan helped me to see that my potential, though rooted in software products and learning, was more fully realized in working with people and leading teams. This has led me towards roles of increasing responsibility and executive leadership. Regan sees the whole person and her insight is empathetic yet bold and challenging. More recently, she worked with members of my leadership team and I have seen similar growth and transformation in them. I recommend her coaching services to any company or individual seeking to grow in both quality of life and performance.”

Jon Stowe, COO, Teachstone

Regan will help you see — and thus measure — yourself , and offer the coaching to actualize the changes and growth you seek. Like a masterful musician in a duet, Regan offers the right ratios of support to stimulate your growth and space to find your own path in her coaching.

“Regan is deliberate and kind in holding me accountable to action plans and encourages my follow through in measuring my growth through our sessions. Regan is a highly effective communicator who helps me detangle complicated circumstances quickly…Regan infuses the power of positivity into all of her coaching which has made me a more effective leader and colleague.

“Regan offers keen perspective on how I'm situated within my work ecosystem and otherwise which has helped me realize my voice and role as a leader in and out of the office. Regan models kindness and self regulation as a coach which in turn have lent to my growth in those areas.”

Whether in preparing for an important meeting or navigating a complex project, Regan has an incredible ability to listen, synthesize complex situations, and provide powerful advice (that works!). Meeting with Regan regularly has given me a third eye – I am armed with greater foresight and awareness of my environment that betters me and the organization I work for. I would recommend Regan without hesitation to anyone who wants to improve their success and enjoyment at work.”
