"I really like what I’m seeing Mike. Your client  actually came to me unsolicited and said that he is glad we decided on coaching for his report ... it’s like working with someone completely different."

"Mike is a seasoned, effective, senior executive with a great ability to identify talent and lead successful teams. I worked through two divestitures and an acquisition of businesses he managed. His ability to help successfully accomplish these strategic goals while keeping an increasingly uneasy employee base engaged was nothing less than remarkable. He is a humble yet assertive manager who truly cares for his team."

"Mike comes up a lot in conversation. Peers .... usually ask, "What does he do?" I respond by saying, "He's a mentor - a ray of sunshine - and a rock when you're trying to enhance your career."  I found him - and it was like finding gold. He helped me build the confidence I needed to tweak my approach to my own life and career."
