Phase 1:

We are honored to have been chosen to
coach leaders from organizations such as:
Hi. I'm Amy Pearl.
Hi. I'm Amy Pearl and I've dedicated my life to helping leaders like you overcome tough challenges, ignite their passion, and achieve their goals. I'd love to help you, too!
As your coach, my job is to listen, share insight and ideas, and push you toward your goals. I might ask hard questions at times, especially when I see more potential in you than you see in yourself. Ultimately, I want you to be much more in tune with your own ideas, thoughts, and confidence so you can solve problems on your own, long after our coaching process is over.
During the last 3 decades, I've helped hundreds of professionals, from CEO's of multi-billion dollar companies to high potentials just starting out. I've gained a reputation as a no-nonsense yet fun-loving coach who asks thought-provoking questions and delivers actionable ideas.
I welcome the opportunity to help you achieve your goals!
How You and I Will Work Together
Following a Kickoff Meeting with your supervisor, we'll begin by meeting every 2 weeks for 1 hour. This way, you'll hit the ground running and make fast progress toward your goals, while giving you enough time between meetings to implement new approaches. You'll define your personal Success Path and the priorities that we'll work on during each meeting. After each session, you'll feel more prepared and confident to tackle the real-life situations you're facing, while building new habits to achieve your goals.
Over time, we'll stretch our coaching conversations out so we meet every 3-to-4 weeks. This way, I'll serve as your accountability partner and we'll ensure your new habits are sustainable for the long-term. We'll also include your supervisor in a mid-way Process Check Meeting, as well as a Wrap Up Meeting to celebrate your successes and ensure they are prepared to support you for the long-term.
Plus, you'll have your own personal Coaching Portal to keep notes, store your assessment results,
access dozens of my best frameworks, and stay focused on your goals!

Dozens of My Best Frameworks
Lots of attention, ideas, and motivation to achieve your goals
Still have a few questions? Read below.
How do I know this will address my issues?
Our goal is to achieve your goals. So, I begin by meeting with you and your supervisor to understand your objectives and unique needs. After coaching countless leaders over the last 2+ decades, I've developed lots of strategies, frameworks, and tools to solve even the toughest challenges.
Of course, I don't know everything, especially when it comes to the nuances of your role or organization. But, if I don't have a trick in my magic bag, we'll figure it out together!
How are our coaching sessions structured?
Our meetings last about an hour.
Initially, we'll use the WorkPlace Big Five Profile so you can inventory your talents and I can get to know you in a language that I understand. Then, we'll initiate the 360 process to understand others' perceptions and to create a plan for the rest of our meetings.
At those subsequent sessions, we'll discuss your challenges and how best to conquer them. And, I'll help you implement simple habits to ensure your desired results are sustainable.
How long does the whole process take?
We'll meet 12 times, initially every other week and then, stretching our latter meetings out a bit to ensure you stay committed to your new behaviors for the long term. So, the entire process takes about 6-8 months.
Interested in moving faster? We can give it a shot. But I find that lasting change take time. Plus, I want you to have time between each session to try new things and make real progress!
What is the cost?
At Work Ignited, we recognize that the fee for our services is your investment in anticipation of higher levels of performance and ultimately, greater financial return. So we strive to offer our high quality service at a fair value. The fee for our One-on-One Leadership Coaching Program is $8,500.
This includes all of our meeting time as well as all assessments, materials, and access to our online coaching portal.
How did Amy learn to be a coach?
I've been formally and personally trained to be a leadership coach by some of the world's leading coaches including Brendon Burchard and Patrick Lencioni. I've studied the impact of personalities and styles at work through numerous assessment certifications, and I'm a top tier award winner for the use of Wiley's Everything DiSC and associated tools. For over 20 years, I've worked with leaders from Caterpillar, Duracell, Wegmans, Barilla, Blue Cross Blue Shield, FeedMore, the United Way and countless organizations of every size and almost every industry.
But, nothing replaces the learning that comes from real world experience. I spent over a decade working for M&T Bank in sales, tech, and operations. I successfully led large teams and some of the most ambitious projects the bank pursued at the time. I now run a 7-figure business. I've had to hire, fire, motivate, inspire, block, tackle, and lead.
I know leadership and life isn't always easy, but I use my knowledge, experience, and tenacity to help you overcome the challenges, achieve your goals, and feel ignited by your work.
Do you offer a guarantee?
In 20+ years, I've never had a dissatisfied customer. I work hard to achieve your goals and I trust that you will do the same. I can't do the work for you, but if you're committed to your own professional and personal growth, so am I.
That being said, I appreciate there are some tricky situations.
Sometimes, paying the full fee up front is difficult. If you'd prefer a three-pay option, just email me at [email protected]. I can set up the payment system so you pay 1/3 up front, 1/3 after our Process Check Meeting with your supervisor, and find final 1/3 at the beginning of the Get Ignited phase.
Sometimes, organizations hire me to coach people because they have lots of potential. Other times, my coaching clients are struggling and this is a final attempt to help them improve. If you're an HR professional or executive trying to decide if coaching is right for one of your leaders, let's talk before you make this investment. Just email me at [email protected] and we'll connect!
The best time to ignite your leadership skills is today.
I know you're busy and perhaps feeling overwhelmed or worried about taking something like this on.
There's no doubt the world is quickly changing - hybrid workforces and today's economy are creating a lot of uncertainty and challenges. I hear you, friend, and I'm here for you.
I truly believe that there's never been a better (or more important) time to double down on building your leadership skills. Today's workforce is looking for a sense of purpose, social connections, and to feel valued for the difference they make. That takes a new set of skills that you might not have needed in the past. Not only will one-on-one coaching give you those skills, it will give you the discipline to put them in place as small, daily habits. So, they are easy!
I don't want you to look back in 6 or even 12 months with those same problems sitting on your desk, wondering what could have been if you only took action.
I want you to feel proud of what you accomplished and confident in what you can achieve. There's no time to waste. Let's get started!

Employee Appreciation Gifts by DiSC Style
Employee Appreciation Gifts by DiSC Style
This year, give gifts with style!
One‑size‑fits‑all employee recognition is easy, but it rarely hits the mark. Our teams are made up of people with very different personalities, needs, and preferences and their Everything DiSC profiles give us a simple language for understanding what actually makes them feel appreciated. When we match our employee appreciation gifts and recognition to each DiSC style, we strengthen teamwork, boost engagement, and create a more genuinely motivating work experience.
Over the years, I’ve watched leaders struggle with Employee Appreciation Week. They want to do something meaningful, but they end up handing out the same gift card or snack basket to everyone and hoping it lands. Recently, I worked with a client who decided to use her team’s DiSC profiles to guide her gift-giving strategy, and the difference was incredible. I watched a true sense of feeling appreciated come over each team member as they opened their gifts. And, they couldn't wait to see what their colleagues received. The conversation around recognition turned into a powerful team building moment instead of an awkward check‑the‑box activity. That experience inspired me to pull together these DiSC‑based gift and recognition ideas you can use with your own team.
Gift Giving Made Easy
Click here to view 12 gifts that I've sorted by DiSC style to make it easy for you to shop. Each includes a link right to Amazon so you can order, personalize, and ship your gifts in just a few minutes.
Employee Appreciation Week starts on March 2nd. So don't delay!
Keep reading to learn why this is important and for more ideas.
Why use Everything DiSC for employee appreciation?
Using Everything DiSC for employee appreciation helps you move beyond generic praise and align recognition with what each person values most at work. DiSC profiles highlight whether someone is more driven by results, relationships, stability, or quality, which gives you a practical roadmap for choosing gifts, recognition messages, and team building activities that actually resonate. When employees feel seen in this way, teamwork improves because people feel respected for their unique strengths, not just their work.
How do I use DiSC styles to pick better employee appreciation gifts?
Use www.catalyst.everythingdisc.com or your own DiSC Profile report to think about each employee’s primary DiSC style. Do they demonstrate Dominance (direct, decisive, and goal-oriented), influence (energetic, idea-generators, and relationship-oriented), Steadiness (helpful, patient, and team-oriented), or Conscientiousness (high standards, analytical, and quality-minded)? Then, use the Appreciation Checklist below to choose:
One gift idea that fits their style
One personalized experience to show appreciation
One short message you can say or write
This keeps your recognition simple, personalized, and aligned with both DiSC insights and your broader trust and team building goals.
Appreciation Checklist:
Choose a gift, a personalized experience, and a message based on your team member's DiSC Style

How can I use DiSC for team building, not just gifts?
Everything DiSC is also a powerful tool for team building and improving workplace culture, not just for gift‑giving moments. One quick exercise is to use Everything DiSC on Catalyst to create a group profile for your team, and review your composite DiSC map together; then use the conversation starters to talk about how your team’s mix of styles influences communication, decision‑making, and collaboration. This turns Employee Appreciation Week into an opportunity to strengthen relationships and build a shared language for how you work together.
Here are the action steps:
Log on to www.catalyst.everythingdisc.com.
Click on Groups and then, Create Group to build your team’s composite DiSC profile.
In your next team meeting, click on Group Insights to explore your team’s map.
Use the Conversation Starters to talk about how you can make better decisions and communicate more clearly as a team.
Employee Appreciation Week Starts March 2nd!
