MENTORING & CONSULTING
Practical mentoring and consulting for individuals, leaders, teams, and business owners. Gain perspective, prepare for important conversations, and move forward with a clear plan built around your goals.
Talk with ColeConfidence, career direction, leadership, teamwork, and client relationships.
01 / WAYS I CAN HELP
Every engagement starts with your goals. We define the challenge, agree on a focus, and turn the conversation into practical next steps.
FOR INDIVIDUALS AT ANY STAGE
For people starting out, changing direction, or ready to grow. Build confidence, work through decisions, and develop habits that support your personal and professional goals.
FOR LEADERS & BUSINESS OWNERS
Support for managers, business owners, and people taking on more responsibility. Strengthen your judgment, set clear expectations, and lead conversations that help people work well together.
FOR TEAMS & BUSINESSES
Help your team communicate clearly, define responsibilities, and work through friction. We identify what is getting in the way and agree on practical changes that support better working relationships.
FOR PEOPLE WHO WORK WITH CLIENTS
Build trust through clear communication, realistic commitments, and consistent follow-through. Prepare for important conversations, address concerns, and strengthen how you work with clients.
02 / MEET COLE
At Cole Demas Mentoring & Consulting, I help people work through decisions, strengthen relationships, and take on new responsibilities with confidence. You get a direct conversation, a considered perspective, and practical steps tailored to your situation.
My background includes more than a decade in construction and quality assurance, where clear communication, sound judgment, and dependable follow-through matter every day.
That experience shapes how I work: listen carefully, explain the reasoning, and help you build your own judgment. We'll focus on what matters to you and how to put it into practice.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ME
Your situation, your goals, and the people involved matter. I want to understand those before we decide what to work on.
You'll get my honest view and the thinking behind it. Ask questions or disagree. The aim is to strengthen your judgment so you can use it yourself.
We'll identify a conversation, decision, or habit you can work on. Then we can look at what happened and what needs adjusting.
03 / HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
We define your goals, work through the challenge, and agree on practical actions. Whether we meet one-to-one or with a team, the work is shaped around your situation and the progress you want to make.
A CAREER CHANGE AFTER 15 YEARS
I helped someone move to a new workplace after 15 years with the same employer. He had the experience, but the change felt overwhelming. We worked through those difficult moments and talked about the skills he already brought to the job.
Balance and boundaries were part of that conversation, too. Building a career should leave room for the rest of your life.
We discuss your goals, the challenges in front of you, and what progress would look like. For team work, we clarify who needs to be involved and what each person contributes.
Work through the options and agree on specific actions. That may include preparing a conversation, setting expectations, or deciding how to address a difficult situation.
Put the plan into practice. In follow-up conversations, we review what changed, address obstacles, and refine the next steps.
MY MOTTO
For me, that means showing up, keeping your word, and making a real effort to improve.
BEFORE WE GET STARTED
Individuals seeking confidence or direction, people navigating a change, leaders taking on responsibility, and teams or business owners working through communication and client challenges. People from different backgrounds and industries are welcome. We focus on your goals and the support that fits your situation.
Both. Individual mentoring focuses on your confidence, career growth, and personal development. Consulting helps businesses and teams work through leadership, communication, and client relationship challenges. We'll agree on the focus, who should take part, and a format that fits the situation.
No. You can be early in your career, established in your profession, running a business, or considering a new direction. We build on your experience and focus on what you want to improve.
I'm based in Washington and work with individuals and teams across the West Coast. I prefer meeting in person when location and travel allow, and phone or video is available too. We'll agree on a format you're comfortable with and arrange any travel in advance.
Individual mentoring is priced by the session. Business consulting for leadership development, team communication, and client relationships is quoted around the support you need.
The fee reflects the time involved, preparation, follow-up, and any agreed travel. We'll discuss the scope and cost up front, so you know what you're agreeing to before work begins.
Bring your questions, be honest about what's difficult, and be willing to consider feedback. Between conversations, make an effort to use what we discuss. Tell me when something isn't working so we can talk about why and adjust.
A little background, one or two situations you'd like help with, and an idea of what you want to get better at. We'll talk through your goals and decide where to begin.
WORK WITH ME
Share a little about your situation, what you want to achieve, and the support you're looking for. Include your location, preferred meeting format, and a few times you're available. We'll agree on the scope, timing, and fee before work begins.
Based in Washington. Serving the West Coast.
In person by arrangement, or by phone or video.
