Coaching Success Stories

CEO of growth company found new strength in leading through downsizing and divestiture:

"Most coaches are not former CEOs and don’t have the background to provide the insight you can. Like a good CEO, you lead with your heart. You have an incredible ability to ‘tune in’ to the specific needs of your client. If there’s an issue lurking beneath the surface, you’ll uncover it and probe in depth. I need that.”

Recently promoted president of global metals processing and trading company:

"You accelerated by understanding of and comfort with my new responsibilities. Your coaching enabled me to align my personal efforts with the most urgent business goals...I was able to resolve crucial performance issues within my senior international executive team efficiently by using you as a sounding board for my actions."

COO of Fortune 10 subsidiary rejected slow-moving bureaucracy to pursue his dream of autonomy and rapid response:

“You’ve helped me establish a clear set of personal and business goals, and provided the regular opportunity to withdraw and focus on them. Now I understand how issues in business and personal life are connected.”

Woman VP in medical software company:

“My new professional and personal directions would not have come to be if I had not learned to ask new questions, consider new options, challenge old assumptions, and generally ‘open up’ to a more gremlin-free way of living. Thank you so much for your help, and your interest, and your encouragement.”

Consulting environmental engineer/scientist reordered work and personal priorities to maximize fulfillment:

“You’re a good listener and you’ve helped me get things back on track. Because you have no vested interest in outcomes, I feel comfortable getting my ideas on the table. Thanks to our coaching relationship, my decisiveness has been restored.”
