Common Questions
Quick answers to the questions we hear most of the time.
What is the GLS™ framework?
The Grounded Leadership Systems™ (GLS™) framework is the structured coaching methodology developed by Oscar Kaunda and used in all executive coaching engagements at Lens of Grace Advisory. It is organized around four integrated pillars that address the full arc of leadership development for healthcare administrators and executives.
The first pillar, Inner Ground, builds emotional regulation, decision clarity, and leadership presence — the internal capacity to lead under sustained pressure without defaulting to reactive behavior. The second pillar, Systems Thinking, shifts the leader from managing through personality and heroics to leading through structure, process, and organizational design. The third pillar, Relational Leadership, develops trust, accountability, and communication capacity across teams operating under complex compliance, workforce, and operational demands. The fourth pillar, Sustainable Growth, builds the leader’s capacity to scale — designing organizations that do not depend entirely on one person being everywhere at once.
The GLS™ framework is not motivational in orientation. It is structural. Coaching sessions use a combination of strategic advising, accountability frameworks, decision-making tools, and — in the 90-day and longer programs — somatic-informed work that addresses how pressure manifests in the body and decision-making process. Most healthcare executives who have worked with traditional executive coaches report that the GLS™ approach is more operationally grounded and more directly connected to their organizational responsibilities.
Is executive coaching worth it for a healthcare administrator or HCBS leader?
The most direct answer is: it depends on what you do with it. Executive coaching produces measurable outcomes when it is structured, accountability-based, and connected to the actual decisions and pressures the leader is navigating — not generic personal development conversations. The GLS™ framework is specifically built for healthcare administrators operating under compliance pressure, workforce instability, and organizational complexity, which means the tools and frameworks are directly applicable to the problems you are already solving.
The financial case is straightforward. A healthcare executive who makes better decisions under pressure, builds stronger accountability systems on their team, and reduces leadership bottlenecks in their organization generates multiples of the coaching investment through prevented errors, reduced turnover, and improved organizational performance. The 90-Day Leadership Reset program ($3,500 to $5,000) is designed to produce a measurable shift in decision-making clarity and leadership effectiveness within the program duration. The Executive Partnership programs (6 and 12 months, $6,500 to $18,000) are for leaders navigating larger organizational transformations or longer-term leadership development arcs.
The honest caveat: coaching only works if the leader is ready to examine their own patterns, implement new frameworks under real conditions, and do the work between sessions. If you are looking for validation rather than growth, this engagement is not the right fit.
How is executive coaching different from therapy or mentorship?
These three things are often confused, and the distinction matters because each serves a different purpose and operates under different conditions.
Therapy is clinical mental health treatment. It is conducted by licensed mental health professionals (LCSWs, psychologists, LPCs) and is oriented toward healing, processing trauma, and addressing diagnosable mental health conditions. Coaching is not therapy and is not a substitute for it. If a client’s needs are clinical in nature, Oscar will say so directly and refer to the appropriate professional.
Mentorship is experience-sharing. A mentor draws on their own professional history to advise someone navigating a similar path. It is typically informal, relationship-based, and not structured around accountability or measurable outcomes. Oscar does serve as a mentor through the SBEAP program — but coaching is different.
Executive coaching is structured, forward-facing, and accountability-based. It focuses on building specific leadership capacities, changing specific behavioral patterns, and achieving specific professional outcomes within a defined timeframe. The GLS™ framework uses formal assessment tools (the Leadership Stability Assessment™), session-by-session accountability structures, and explicit deliverables — a personal leadership roadmap, decision frameworks, communication tools — that the client owns and uses after the engagement ends. The coach’s role is not to tell the client what to do, but to provide the structure, challenge, and tools that allow the client to develop their own leadership clarity.
