Case Study: Meet Maya – A Nonprofit Executive

The Challenge

Maya, the Executive Director of a mid-sized nonprofit, was passionate about her mission but struggled with team misalignment, decision-making bottlenecks, and burnout. Despite her dedication, internal tensions and silos were hindering impact.

The Whole Leader Lab Approach

To create immediate and lasting change, Maya engaged in Elevate Together: Unlocking Peak Team Performance. 


Through leadership assessments, one-on-one coaching, and a full-day team development session, Maya and her leadership team:

  • Identified their strengths, communication styles, and blind spots.
  • Engaged in leadership debriefs to build trust and alignment.
  • Implemented a shared decision-making framework to break down silos.


After three months, Maya saw significant improvements—her team was more engaged, proactive, and effective in tackling challenges. She continued with executive coaching to refine her leadership approach and sustain progress.

The Outcome

By month twelve, Maya had transformed her leadership style and created a culture of resilience and high performance. 


She saw these big shifts in her day-to-day leadership:

  • Delegated more effectively, freeing her time for strategy and external relationships.
  • Strengthened team cohesion and accountability.
  • Developed resilience and sustainable leadership practices to prevent burnout.


Today, Maya leads with clarity, confidence, and impact—ensuring her organization thrives.
