Take a coach approach
to develop stronger leaders & build stronger teams.

I partner with leaders and their teams to deepen insight, increase impact, and create lasting growth — through coaching, team facilitation, and research-backed assessments.

I take a coach approach to everything I do — because lasting growth doesn't come from a single workshop or a one-time training. It comes from building the awareness, skills, and culture that help leaders and teams keep getting better long after our work together ends.

Bethany Peters, Ph.D., PCC

 

Hi, I'm Bethany Peters — a leadership coach and team facilitator who helps leaders and teams do their best work.

With over 20 years of experience spanning higher education, organizational leadership, coaching, and team development, I've spent my career studying what makes leaders effective and teams thrive — and then translating that research into practice.

I've led teams, designed development programs, and coached leaders across cultures and institutions — from universities to corporations to nonprofits.

Today I bring that depth to every coaching engagement and team facilitation, alongside the research and tools to make it actionable.. I hold a Ph.D. and am a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) through the International Coaching Federation. I'm certified in Working Genius, CliftonStrengths, Enneagram, EQi 2.0, and MBTI — tools I use to help leaders and teams move from insight to lasting action.

Whether we were preparing for a high-stakes conversation, exploring strengths-based feedback, or building psychological safety on my team, she always came with thoughtful resources I could apply immediately. Coaching with Bethany gave me both the mindset and the tools to lead with grounded confidence.
