About Christine Frederick

I am a certified executive and leadership coach with over 20 years of senior executive experience. The focus of my practice is on career transitions and acceleration. I partner with clients to thrive during periods of change with a clear pathway to success. My coaching experience spans across industries collaborating with executives, lawyers, emerging talent and teams. I partner with my clients to learn how to leverage their strengths, overcome obstacles, build action plans, and acquire sustainable behaviors. Prior to starting my coaching practice, I held senior executive level positions including Head of Litigation, Chief Compliance Officer, and Strategy & Execution for top-tier financial services companies. I have the vantage point of having served as in-house counsel and being a client of the law department. I am seen as a sought-after thought partner; known for building dynamic teams, transforming organizations, and helping drive the success of the business through expert and agile solutions. I am passionate about positioning people for success, especially in times of change. It is not theoretical for me. I learned to thrive and guided my teams through acquisitions, mergers, and strategic shifts. I integrated personal life (parenthood, caring for family, and my own health crisis) with my career. As a leader, I prioritized the growth and development of my teams and talent across the organization. I served as executive sponsor for leadership development programs, mentored and participated in employee resources groups. At my own career crossroads, I decided to dedicate the next phase of my career to what gives me joy – helping others seize their true potential and achieve their aspirations.
