Dr. Holly Ward, PhD

My professional career began as an educator. This experience instilled in me the value of thinking and learning. My focus was always on how I could encourage my students to be better and to use their strengths to succeed. They taught me that when barriers are removed they could excel! I learned so much from my students that transferred into my work as an executive coach. I have seen firsthand how supporting individuals with a commitment and desire to grow opens new and exciting personal and professional opportunities. 

I received my PhD from the University of Georgia and my Instructional Coaching Certification from the University of Kansas. I am also a Certified Mediator. I completed my Certificate of Leadership Excellence in Leading Teams with the Harvard Professional Development Program in 2023. I believe in the power of coaching as a support system to inspire individuals in professional environments to fulfill their greatest potential. It is a privilege that I hold very precious to have the opportunity to go alongside and support individuals through coaching.
