Coaching Client Success Stories

My experience rates a 10 out of 10. Tom is really talented and clearly loves what he does to bring the enthusiasm. He combines his experiences and professionally developed coaching skills with his intellect and intuition to utilize them all well. The delivery was skilled and compassionate. The content was amazing. He also shows a good command of the content, its origins and its ultimate purpose. He knows where he is going with it and is able to change up approaches and/or frameworks to get there on the fly.

Most valuable was the overall philosophy of operating from my strengths, which was very different than the coaching I was hearing in the office, which addressed shoring up my weaknesses. I enjoyed the weekly face to face meetings immensely since that held me accountable to getting the work done.

"Tremendously valuable! I went into this process feeling deflated and demotivated. I have emerged from this process with greater self awareness and feel confident in my ability to direct my department, demonstrate greater value to my supervisors and others in the organization, and lead my team to do new, creative work that we are genuinely proud of. I will always be extremely grateful for your professional guidance!"

“I liked your style, which is why I chose to work with you. I know of a few other management coaches that are too forceful and opinionated – telling you how to “fix” your business in the first 10 minutes with little or no historic knowledge. I appreciated that you got to know me first and my issues before spouting advice. I also like the little follow-up emails – some good items come across once you reflect upon our discussions. And I liked how I could divert the conversation to current issues if need be.”

Tom did a great job in connecting with me as a person, helping to guide me in understanding of my approach and interaction with people and providing me with a road map for life. I’ve discovered the importance of qualify of life balance, prioritization of work flow, and family interaction improvement Most valuable was the gap awareness process of who I am, who I want to become and how to get there.

I learned valuable lessons on leadership and its true essence. I understand more now than ever how to engage people to get them to perform to a high level and to an aligned vision. Most importantly, I learned that all the answers lie within myself. It’s all up to me.
