Leadership & Team Coaching

Awakening Leadership with Heart

Your last team meeting was... awkward.

Someone rolled their eyes.
 Another checked their phone—again.
 The decision you needed never happened.

You used to have a team that moved mountains.
 Now you have a group that barely moves.

What changed?

The people are talented. The strategy is sound.
 But something invisible shifted—and now everything feels harder.

Here's what most leaders don't realize:

The problem isn't your people.
 It's the hidden dynamics beneath the surface—the unspoken tensions, the trust gaps, the misaligned values that nobody wants to name.

And those invisible patterns? They're not unfixable.

Welcome to Leadership & Team Coaching

Great leaders don't command—they awaken.

They listen deeply, communicate clearly, and inspire others to grow. They create environments where people want to bring their best—not because they have to, but because they're genuinely invested.

At Power Up Coaching, we guide leaders and teams to rediscover alignment, trust, and purpose through leadership coaching and team coaching services rooted in consciousness, not just competence.

Led by Bence Agosthazi—an organizational development consultant and leadership mentor with three decades of experience advising executives at Apple, Cisco, PwC, and First Republic Bank—this work reveals what's really happening beneath organizational symptoms.

You'll learn to build cultures rooted in authentic impact, conscious collaboration, and leadership with heart.

Why Leadership Coaching Matters

Even the best leaders can feel stuck.

The signs show up everywhere:

You know something needs to shift. But what?

The Hidden Truth:

Most leadership challenges aren't tactical—they're relational and energetic.

It's not about:

It's about:

Leadership coaching surfaces these invisible dynamics—and transforms them into fuel for growth.

What You'll Gain

From Reactive → Intentional
You'll shift from constantly putting out fires to creating the conditions where fires don't start.

From Command → Inspire
You'll move from telling people what to do to helping them discover what's possible.

From Burnout → Sustainability
You'll learn to lead from presence instead of pressure—and paradoxically, achieve more.

From Division → Unity
You'll transform conflicts from threats into opportunities for deeper understanding and alignment.

The Power of Awakening Leadership

Awakening leadership starts with self-awareness.

Before you can lead others consciously, you must understand:

Through leadership coaching, you'll learn to:

Navigate conflicts with clarity and compassion
 Not by avoiding or suppressing—but by transforming tension into trust

Inspire rather than instruct
 Shift from micromanaging to creating conditions where excellence emerges naturally

Strengthen emotional intelligence
 Read the room, understand what's unspoken, respond with wisdom instead of reactivity

Lead change without burning out
 Sustain transformation over time by working with natural rhythms, not against them

Build cultures of accountability and creativity
 Where people take ownership because they care, not because they're afraid

This is leadership with heart—grounded in authenticity, guided by empathy, and resulting in authentic impact.

Navigating Conflict with Consciousness

From Suppression to Transformation

Most "conflict resolution" is actually conflict suppression.

You smooth things over. Address surface issues. Ask everyone to "be professional."
 Tension goes underground.
 Three weeks later—same issue, different trigger.

Our approach is different.

We don't resolve conflicts. We transform them—using tension as a doorway to deeper alignment.

The 3-Phase Process:

1. Surface the Real Issue
 What looks like a budget disagreement is often a values conflict.
 What sounds like a personality clash is often a communication mismatch.
 What feels like resistance to change is often unacknowledged fear.

We help teams name what's actually happening beneath the presenting problem.

2. Honor All Perspectives
 Every conflict contains wisdom from multiple angles.
 Every person's resistance carries important information.

Through facilitated dialogue, we create space for all voices to be heard—not just the loudest ones.

3. Co-Create New Agreements
 Not compromise (lose-lose).
 Not one side winning (win-lose).
 But integration (win-win-win).

We guide teams to design new ways of working together that honor everyone's needs.

Real Example:

A leadership team thought they were arguing about budget allocation.

Through our process, they discovered they were actually conflicted about company values—specifically, whether to prioritize growth or sustainability.

Once the real issue was named, the budget conversation became easy. They created a framework that served both values.

The conflict they'd been avoiding for six months resolved in one three-hour session.

Team Coaching Services

From Cooperation to Conscious Collaboration

Teams are living systems.

When one part is out of tune, the whole organism feels it.
 When trust breaks down, everything slows down.
 When purpose gets blurry, engagement drops.

Our team coaching services help groups reconnect with their shared purpose and potential.

We facilitate:

Trust-Building & Communication
 Not through forced team-building exercises—but through real conversations that create genuine connection.

Conflict Transformation
 Turning friction into fuel for innovation instead of pretending everything's fine.

Shared Accountability
 Clear agreements that everyone co-creates and actually wants to uphold.

Mindful Collaboration
 Working together instead of just working near each other—where the whole becomes greater than the sum of parts.

What Teams Experience:

"Our leadership team was imploding—passive aggression, silos, blame. Bence helped us surface what we'd been avoiding. Within 90 days, we were operating like an actual team again. The shift was tangible."
 — Theresa K., Director of Operations, Cisco

"I was skeptical about 'conscious collaboration.' Sounded fluffy. But after one team coaching session, we solved a problem that had paralyzed us for three months. Now I'm a believer."
 — Marcus J., VP Engineering, Fintech Startup

The Science of Conscious Leadership

This isn't just philosophy—it's neuroscience and organizational psychology in action.

Research shows:

HeartMath Institute:
 Leaders who practice heart coherence (a measurable state of physiological alignment) demonstrate:

Google's Project Aristotle:
 After studying 180 teams over two years, Google found that psychological safety (the ability to take risks without fear of punishment) was the #1 predictor of high-performing teams—more than talent, resources, or structure.

Conscious Capitalism Research:
 Companies that operate from stakeholder (not just shareholder) orientation outperform traditional companies by 10:1 over 15 years (Firms of Endearment study).

Translation:

When you lead with heart and build conscious collaboration, you're not being "soft."
 You're applying the most cutting-edge research on what actually creates sustainable high performance.

Leadership Development Retreats

Grow Beyond the Boardroom

Sometimes transformation requires distance.

You can't see the system when you're in the system.
 You can't hear yourself when you're constantly responding to demands.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How is leadership coaching different from executive coaching?
 A: Executive coaching typically focuses on performance and skill development. Leadership coaching goes deeper—addressing who you are as a leader, not just what you do. Both are valuable; this work emphasizes consciousness and systemic impact.

Q: Can you work with our existing leadership development program?
 A: Absolutely. This work complements most traditional programs by adding the human and relational dimensions they often miss.

Q: What if our team is virtual/distributed?
 A: We work effectively both online and in-person. Virtual team coaching includes breakout dialogues, collaborative exercises, and practices adapted for Zoom. In-person retreats offer deeper immersion.

Q: How long before we see results?
 A: Most teams notice shifts within the first session—often subtle at first, then increasingly obvious. Sustainable transformation typically takes 3-6 months of consistent engagement.

Q: What if some leaders are resistant?
 A: Resistance is information. We work with it, not against it. Often, the most resistant leaders become the biggest advocates once they experience the value firsthand.

Q: Do you work with boards of directors?
 A: Yes. Board dynamics benefit enormously from conscious collaboration practices. Format is typically quarterly intensive sessions plus monthly check-ins.

Q: Can this work in highly analytical/technical cultures?
A: Yes—because it's grounded in research and produces measurable results. We speak both the language of data and the language of consciousness.
