Frequently asked questions

Answers to common questions.

What is executive coaching, and how is it different from career coaching?

Career coaching focuses on what role comes next. Executive coaching focuses on how you lead once you're in the seat — presence, decisions, stakeholders, and the leadership signal you send. The two often run alongside each other for senior clients.

Who is your executive coaching practice built for?

CEOs, presidents, C-suite officers, SVPs, and senior directors — including White House and federal senior executives, military flag officers, and university and healthcare leaders. Confidential 1:1 engagements with Heather Joy Hill.

How long does an executive coaching engagement run?

Most engagements are 90 days or six months, with weekly or biweekly working sessions. Longer retainers are available for first-100-days, succession, and board-readiness work.

Is executive coaching delivered virtually or in person?

Primarily by video, scheduled around your calendar. In-person sessions are available for senior executive search and high-stakes moments where the room matters.

Is everything we discuss confidential?

Yes. Every engagement is fully confidential. We do not share client identities, conversations, or materials with employers, recruiters, or third parties without explicit written consent.
