Group Coaching Program Helping Managers Become Confident Leaders
You’re in the right place if…
You are a manager or leader who’s feeling overwhelmed with the amount of work and responsibilities on your plate
You really care about the team and about doing a good job, but find yourself working late or on the weekends just to keep up
You try to delegate projects to your team, but aren’t getting the results you want and end up re-doing the project yourself
You’re anxious to ask questions at work because you feel like you should know the answers already
You don’t have as much confidence as you once did at work, and it’s making you question if you’re good enough to be in your new role
If you said yes to any of these, you’re certainly not alone. I’ve been there and I’ve worked with others who have too. But here’s the thing… it’s not your fault and you don’t have to keep feeling and working this way. You CAN feel confident, less stressed and more balance in your new role. Let me help you learn how.
hi, I’m Nandhini sundaram
I’m a certified coach helping managers become confident leaders so you can thrive at work, avoid burnout and continue being the rockstar employee you always were.
I believe the transition to being a manager is the hardest you’ll make in your career because you're now not only focused on your own success, but you're also responsible for the success of your team and your company. You have new responsibilities, you're in bigger meetings with senior people and you're expected to make sure the day-to-day runs smoothly while also trying to be a thought leader and think big picture. It's a massive shift and yet companies don't offer support for people to successfully make this transition, leading to increased stress, anxiety and even resignation. In fact, 48% of managers are at risk of failing (source: HBR) and more than half will suffer work-induced stress and fatigue (source: Gartner)! I don’t want that to be you.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed and lacking confidence, you’re definitely not alone and things CAN get better. Let me help you learn a new way to work so you can thrive in your new role and keep thriving as you move up the ladder.

my approach
Unlike other coaches, I believe that to succeed in your role you need to learn to DO less so you can LEAD more. I help clients achieve this shift and find a new way to work using three core steps:
Let go of self-doubt and increase your confidence by challenging your fears and quieting your negative inner critic
Optimize productivity by evaluating how you work, how you delegate and how you communicate with others
Adopt a growth mindset enabling the growth of your team and your company without sacrificing your own goals
Client Testimonial
“Her ability to hold space, while also provoking action, was done in such a thoughtful manner that I left each session feeling more empowered than the last. Each discussion provided clarity over where my energy could be spent, as well as affirmation that I can stand firmly in my own power regardless of the situation at hand.”
~ Audra Joseph
Strength In Numbers
Being a manager can feel really lonely at times which is why I created a group coaching program to bring like-minded leaders together. This is a small group of just 15 people where you can feel supported, understood and learn from each other.
The next cohort starts April 15th and runs through July 31st. That’s right, 16 weeks! Because real change takes time and short trainings aren’t going to cut it. With this program you get 4 solid months of support to help you work through challenges as they come up and make sure your new behaviors create the change you want.
Program Elements:
16 weeks of online group coaching (Tuesdays 6-7pm EST), sessions will be recorded in case you can’t make it
The topic of the sessions change every two weeks to give you time for practice & implementation before moving on. Topics include: Understanding Performance, Changing Negative Thinking, Building Confidence, Improving Communications, Enhancing Productivity and Enabling Growth for your team and yourself.
Custom exercises will be shared every two weeks along with homework assignments to put learnings into practice
Each participant also gets 2x private sessions with me for more personalized support

~ Fi O’Donnell
why trust me?
I'm an ICF Certified Coach and former Ad Exec with nearly 20 years of experience helping brands, teams and colleagues achieve their goals. I loved the work I was doing, but was fed up with so many rising stars burning out or leaving because they felt they couldn't handle the job. So, I created a personalized coaching program to help managers gain the skills they need to accelerate their success and become the confident leaders they aspire to be.
How do I know that I can help you? Because I’ve been through it all myself. I have over 15 years of experience successfully managing and leading teams. I powered my way up the corporate ladder with a confidence that I didn’t have when I was younger. I created work/life balance (as a people-pleaser!) in a demanding job that previously kept me up most nights. And now, I get to help others do the same.
If you’re ready to feel more confident, have more balance and progress in your career while avoiding burnout, then sign-up today.
