“Lori epitomizes the X Factor toward success and more.”

When those who endeavor to experience our personal best come to the recognition that striving toward excellence requires skillful, dedicated, as well as discerning help, Lori epitomizes the X factor toward success and more. As an Executive Leader/Manager who has led talented workforces of thousands, I have found that she stands amongst the top … Her extraordinary gifting, patience, hard work, attention to detail, willingness to wrestle through various levels of complexity to position her clients to succeed remains remarkable. Lori, unlike most coaches, does it as a calling and passion. I give her the highest recommendation, especially for individuals set on being "standouts".

Corporate wellness coaching helps you overcome the challenges of navigating the ever-changing workplace

The challenges of navigating the ever-changing workplace and creating or finding a thriving work environment can be overwhelming.

To complicate matters, the current workforce includes 4 generations, all with varying experience, values, expectations, and norms. And then there is the added pressure of having to adapt to emerging technologies, differing workspaces (virtual vs. in-person), and industry trends that change in the blink of an eye.

  • Work days are filled with to-do’s, meetings, and competing priorities, with little time to consider how individuals feel, perform, or get along.

  • The stress of staying competitive and relevant may lead individuals to say less and do more, even if it means that they feel disconnected or unaligned with their work.

  • People struggle to stay engaged when they feel undervalued. Their purpose becomes diluted.

We can bridge the gaps between generations by understanding and accepting diversity, creating a safe place for people to flourish. Professional success will follow. And we will see more individuals bringing their best selves to work every day.

Lori Nero Ghosal, Ed.D, founder and CEO of Inner Quest Coaching, an executive, leadership coaching company that empowers professionals to bring their best selves to work every day.

I’m Lori Nero Ghosal, Ed.D., PCC

As the Founder and CEO of INNER QUEST COACHING, I want to welcome you to the world of coaching and share the transformative experience that high-level coaching can bring to each individual and the workplace to create a more human-centered, positive and fulfilling experience of work in your life.

Our 1 on 1 coaching helps fast-track career and workplace growth while facilitating profound self-understanding and interpersonal growth— benefiting the individual employee, the team, and the entire organization.

Our purpose is to guide clients in exploring and understanding themselves in 4 fundamental areas: work and life values, self-awareness and other awareness, personal and professional goals, and skills and abilities.

We don’t stop being human when we go to work.

When individuals understand what motivates and drives them, where their natural strengths lie, and understand those around them, it allows them to bring their best selves to work every day to meet issues directly and overcome obstacles –regardless of their level – employee, emerging leader, leadership, or executive.

And I think we all can agree our work is more than just a job; it’s the activity that sparks our passion and draws on our unique combination of knowledge, skills, interests, and style that only we have, and it has a place of value for others and the world.

We deserve to achieve our aspirations, do work that is fulfilling, and live the life we desire.

With an impeccable track record spanning over 15 years working in corporate, higher education, and non-profit, I have earned recognition for my ability to connect with and create transformational insight with diverse clients, individuals, teams, and organizations, enabling them to reach their goals.

This is my life's work and dream.

INNER QUEST COACHING can help you develop yours.

Why Coaching Works

  • Coaching uses a creative, introspective, and thought-provoking process where individuals are supported in identifying big-picture objectives while creating immediate step-by-step goals to guide their progress and stay on track.

  • Coaching is a partnership that facilitates growth and empowers individuals to tap into their potential, improve self-confidence and communication skills, clarify the thought process, and release negative patterns. 

  • A coach's role is to provide guidance, support, opportunity for introspection, and a structured framework to facilitate growth and success through active listening, questioning, and feedback.

  • Through a personalized journey, individuals learn to make choices that align with their innate beliefs, values, and abilities. They see new possibilities and make positive changes in their personal and professional lives. 

  • Coaching improves time management, work performance, and team effectiveness.
