• Leading the development of related resources necessary (IP, case studies, whitepapers, proposal and pricing templates, marketing materials, etc.) for a particular coaching solution assigned to them (i.e. Executive, Integrated, Team, Coaching Skills/Certificate Programs and/or Coaching Culture) so that others (faculty and sales in particular) may more effectively market, design, sell and deliver the solution
