Part 2: Close Up Radio Welcomes Back Gene Shaw Coaching

Chesapeake, VA – Gene Shaw Coaching specializes in leadership development and executive coaching, primarily in the healthcare space.

“The definition of a strong leader is someone who knows themselves, a degree of self-understanding and an ability to accomplish objectives,” says Gene. “A strong leader is a people person. If you're only focusing on the technology or the finance or the marketing, and forgetting about the people component, you're missing a big part of what will make you successful.”

Prior to launching Gene Shaw Coaching, Gene was a registered nurse who transitioned into hospital administration to focus on the information technology aspects of healthcare.

As an administrator, Gene had the opportunity to work directly with leaders, department heads, emerging leaders and staff who wanted to become leaders, mentoring and developing these individuals to excel in their positions.

“I moved into that role with a deep understanding of how healthcare is to be delivered, so I was able to really contribute to those individuals’ careers,” recalls Gene. “I really enjoyed the opportunity to help those individuals figure out where they want to go, what they want to do, and how to get there. When I retired, I thought, ‘How can I continue doing this?’”

That was five years ago. Today, Gene is dedicated to assisting individuals to achieve personal fulfillment, professional growth, and business results through individual and organizational effectiveness. Together, Gene and his clients establish real specific objectives. These objectives not only the individual, but they also help measure success.
