Hi, I’m Carlee Wolfe.
My approach to coaching comes from my lifelong love of athletics. During my professional time with USA Volleyball, The United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee, and Under Armour, I’ve seen how powerful a sports metaphor can be for performance, on or off the field.
I have 15 years of experience working with professionals in leadership and organizational development. I use that experience to help my clients work on leadership, teamwork, personal and work performance challenges, winning, learning from the losses, and building a coalition of fans.
Like working with an athlete, I combine my ability to understand your challenges to facilitate the discovery of practical, yet powerful solutions on the path to becoming a high performer. I prefer a fresh take on the traditional coaching conversations, bringing a sense of humor and directness to the table so we can develop an authentic relationship. No matter the arena, field of play or performance challenge, I’m here to bring your MVP status to life.
What does Ace and Arrow mean?
The name represents my philosophy of helping clients ace their career and life. In volleyball, an ace is a serve delivered with great skill, which no one can return. It’s my job to help you build the skills you need to succeed and have victorious moments of your own. Add in my straightforward (as an arrow) approach, and you’ve got Ace and Arrow.
