Lynn Carnes is an Executive Leadership Coach who inspires and equips corporate leaders to increase performance through self-awareness. The leaders who work with Lynn reclaim their lives while also becoming a force to be reckoned with at work. Business is changing faster than ever. Corporate Executives often lose themselves in the constraining environment of having to be leaders through decisions they didn't make and the ambiguity that comes with constant change. Lynn Carnes helps teams and individuals cultivate their sense of purpose, courage and clarity so that they create space in their lives to focus on what matters, both at work and at home.

The Whole Executive Program

Knowing how we think and process information is hugely important. The HBDI not only shows you what your thinking style is, but the program I have designed helps facilitate growth in other areas so you can feel whole again.

Performance Coaching

The Performance Coaching Twelve Week program prepares you for a specific event such as making a significant sales presentation or project milestone, asking for a raise, preparing for a promotion, transitioning into a new job, confronting a difficult colleague and even recovering from a job loss.

Executive Coaching

Leadership is an inner game of self awareness. Through my coaching and workshops, I have helped hundreds of clients develop the self awareness to thrive in today's challenging environment. This is an intense year-long program of working one-on-one with me by phone and in-person coaching retreats.

Transformational Coaching

Transformational coaching provides a level of satisfaction that goes beyond performance, past that promotion and into a happier life lived from the inside out. It would be the most challenging and rewarding thing you ever did for yourself.  When you walk away, you will be stronger and more confident, and you will truly see the world with new eyes. It is completely life changing.

Corporate Retreats

Would you invest a day of company time if it resulted in achieving three things at one time: Team Alignment, Change Management, Leadership Development. Every team session we facilitate accomplishes all three.

Yes! I Want This!
You are not alone if you feel like change is running you. Ask yourself: Is my life running me?  Or am I running my life? 

What if it could be different? 


If you are a leader in the corporate world, you are managing more change than ever. If you are like so many of the the clients I work with, you... 
  • Are struggling to keep up with an incredibly fast pace of change
  • Go to work tired, unmotivated and even burned out
  • Generate great ideas, yet no one seems to hear you or give you credit
  • Secretly wonder if everyone is more qualified that you
  • Want the best for your people, yet find it difficult to bring out your team’s best performance
  • Avoid having important conversations because you dread the conflict, the emotions or the impact on the relationship
  • Have little time to work on yourself

It does NOT have to be this way.  It IS possible to run your life. It IS possible to achieve at high levels, to unleash the performance of your team, and to grow at the same time. Without getting burned out. In fact, you can actually thrive.
 
Even if you are super busy, under pressure, and juggling multiple commitments. Even if you have a huge job and a ton of responsibility.

With coaching and commitment to doing their work, my clients have be able to:
  • Increase their energy, resilience and clarity of thinking
  • Break through procrastination and get stuff done
  • Significantly increase their confidence and be ok with not being perfect
  • Bring the best ideas to fruition 
  • Have difficult conversations that both improve work relationships and better coordinate action
  • Stay calm under pressure
  • Reclaim a sense of ownership in their lives 

And so much more.
 
You can do this!
 
We start with getting clarity about what matters to you.

I will send you a few simple questions to help you get clarity. 

Send me an email and we can talk about your discoveries: lynn@lynncarnes.com

Why we do what we do

Quite simply, learning and growth.  Someone once said “You are either green and growing or ripe and rotting.”  Seen through that lens, learning becomes a journey rather than a static event.  Growth creates aliveness and vitality.  Even if you are already proficient, there is always more to learn. Everything we do at Creative Spirits Unleashed comes down to being better, whether it’s leading a team, leading a change, taking on a new challenge or reinventing yourself.   Perform better AND have a great life.  That’s why we do it.
