Leadership is changing. The most successful leaders aren’t those who push harder—they’re the ones who build trust, connection, and environments where people feel safe and can thrive.

Creativity, innovation, and profitability don’t come from pressure and burnout; they come from leaders who understand context and believe that leadership is a shared responsibility.

Watts Collaborative offers Rising Leaders peer-to-peer group coaching, 1:1 coaching, and the Rooted in Change corporate leadership program for those who know the old way isn’t working—and are ready to step into something better, now.

Where Bold Leadership Takes Root Within Your Team or Organization

Matt Ruderman

Chief Legal Officer at Definitive Healthcare

“I am so grateful that a trusted friend introduced me to Nan with what turned out to be serendipitous timing. I met Nan when I was fresh into a new, transitional leadership role. The time we spent together over the ensuing months has been absolutely critical to identifying and applying consistent values to a fast-moving and unpredictable situation. When I look ahead on my calendar and see my next check in with Nan I am always excited about the progress I know we will make together. I have met with a few executive coaches in the past, but Nan is the first one I have stuck with. I would be happy to share more with anyone who is interested.”

Testimonials

Nan Watts, PCC Founder / CEO Watts Collaborative

Our unprecedented times call for people to lead wholeheartedly, creating strong systems that support well-being and inclusivity while redefining what great performance looks like.

For nearly two decades, I've refined my talent as a catalyst for growth. My professional calling is coaching, where I bring insight, skill, compassion, humor, and wisdom to the table, along with a unique gift for distilling your words, thoughts, and emotions into the core truth of who you are. My work extends beyond coaching to guiding, partnering with and advising with leaders who are committed to challenging themselves to expand, heal, evolve, and thrive.

I am committed to doing this work myself, by applying the same principles I use in coaching, to find openings for greater internal exploration and growth.

Inside-Out Leadership Development

Expand Your Toolbox and Apply These Learnings to Real Life Scenarios

  • Distill and crystallize your core values and ‘why’. They are essential components of your personal navigation system.

  • Master the art of the Saturated Pause, tune out the external noise, ignite the wisdom you hold within, deepen your self-awareness and become more expansive with more capacity and vitality.

  • Understand your triggers, your habitual response to those triggers so that you can move nimbly between a reactive state to a more resourced and resilient state.

  • Experience safety and trust so that you can understand what it truly means. Then you will be able to extend that our to your wider circle.

  • Listening deeply is at the core of generative conversations and meaningful interaction. At their core these conversations are not merely an exchange of information but rather a dynamic process that has the potential to generate new insights, perspectives and possibilities.

  • Inclusivity and allyship are the cornerstones of building diverse and equitable communities where every individual feels valued, respected and empowered to thrive.

    They serve as powerful catalysts for promoting compassion, understanding among individuals, a team, and within your organization.

    Better understand your own inherent biases without shame and become a more inclusive leader and better ally for others on your team and in your organization.

  • Leading people requires taking time to understand what is needed in the moment. How do you know? When is it time to coach vs advise or direct. What is your preferred style of leading? Is it effective? How to flex your style to meet the other person where they are.

Wherever you may be in your journey, we invite you to become more expansive… with greater capacity and vitality.
