Nancy’s When To Get A Coach Toolkit

How to find the right coach for you

Jess Skylar with Nancy Fournier


Everything you need to diagnose what’s breaking your team, lead a meaningful reset, and actually follow through.

This toolkit brings together Nancy Fournier’s two go-to resources for anyone considering getting a coach.

From the Helia Library — based on the article When To Get A Coach, which came from our Coffee Chat with Nancy Fournier.


What’s Inside

01 — Coach Interview Questions

This is Nancy Fournier’s practical list of questions to bring to your first conversation with a potential coach. Use it to assess fit, understand their approach, and make sure you’re making a real investment — not just a hopeful one.

02 — Delegation Self Assessment

Nancy Fournier’s delegation assessment takes about 10 minutes and gives you a clear picture of where your delegation strengths are, and where the blind spots might be quietly slowing you down.


If You Want Help

Nancy Fournier works exclusively with women in nonprofit and government leadership — helping them recognize the patterns that are holding them back, find their own voice, and lead from a place of genuine confidence rather than braced survival.

She’s a good fit if:

  • You’re a woman leading a nonprofit, foundation, or government organization and feeling the specific isolation that comes with that
  • You want a coach who will hold up a mirror,  gently AND honestly, not just validate everything you’re already doing
  • You’re ready to actually do the work, not just talk about it every two weeks
  • You want support before the crisis, not after

Nancy also recommends two colleagues she trusts deeply:
