One leader ’s reflections on a trusted leadership advisor: A personal commentary.

Comments on the article “From here to certainty: Becoming CEO and how a trusted leadership advisor (TLA) helped the client get there” by Karol Wasylyshyn. The author, a physician, talks about how the case study in the article resonates with his own work with Dr. Wasylyshyn, which started as an executive-coaching relati onship but over time transitioned into her becoming his TLA, taking him from academic medicine, to being an executive in a pharmaceutical company, to being an effective senior leader, to being an executive coach and TLA himself. And he describes how her use of four role dimensions and model agility helped him develop trust and reach the personal harmony state of presence. He ends by seconding her call “that current... TLAs... remain as certain and fearless as we need to be to foster the ongoing certainty and fearlessness of our clients.” (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2017 APA, all rights r eserved)
