Laura Davis

Laura Davis assists individuals, teams, and organizations to grow through change by developing people and organizational capabilities to create healthier, engaged, coaching cultures within organizations. Prior to becoming an ICF Master Certified Executive Leadership Coach and Master Facilitator, Laura held both line and staff marketing management positions at Exxon, Equifax, and United Parcel Service as well as serving as an Adjunct Professor of Business Studies at Mercer University.

In addition, Laura has coached hundreds of senior and mid-level leaders from a wide variety of industries to “get out of their own way” and to become the effective leaders they were meant to be. Her focus is on the development of transformational leadership and team skills using accelerated learning techniques to foster open communication, trust and teamwork, and innovation and creativity. The coaching and empowerment culture Laura assists leaders in creating can dramatically increase the sense of personal responsibility and ownership at every level of the organization. This results in happier, more productive employees as well as bottom-line business results.
