CUTV News Radio spotlights Carol Tieso Creative Coaching

Williamsburg, VA – Dr. Carol Tieso is professor of educational psychology at the College of William & Mary, an Advanced Certified Personal and Executive Coach (ACPEC), and founder of Carol Tieso Creative Coaching. Carol Tieso’s Creative Coaching works with individuals in higher education and non-profits organizations who are seeking to improve their emotional intelligence through a positive psychology strength-based approach.

Dr. Tieso has mentored gifted and creative individuals for more than 30 years, working with gifted children, their teachers, and now graduate students and adults.

Dr. Tieso’s coaching is based on whatever her clients’ needs are, but those needs are generally based around developing greater self-awareness and emotional intelligence.

“From my own perspective, I wasn't always very self-aware. It was a real learning experience,” says Dr. Tieso. “Ninety percent of the issues I dealt with as an administrator were interpersonal issues. They were not issues of curriculum or teaching or classes. I had to deal with faculty-to-faculty, faculty-to-administrator, and faculty-to-student issues. Relationships. If you're not good at that, that's where I think a coach can really help you.”
