WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

In our 19 years of working with Rob at Macys, he quickly became a trusted partner and advisor. He always addressed issues creatively and elevated our thinking as we collaborated to build our leadership academy. You can count on Rob to deliver on commitments. He gets my highest recommendations.

I will be forever indebted to Rob for his sage counsel over the last several years.  He guided me through good times and bad in my role as Chair of a large academic department of anesthesiology.  Rob has an uncanny ability to “meet you where you are” and give examples and analogies that resonate with your internal state. Most importantly, he knows when to redirect or call you out when you’re heading down an unhealthy path and cheer you on when you’re on a productive one.

Rob was critical to our development of the Technology Adoption Program and in understanding the complexities of organizational behavioral and cultural change. His approach combines compassion with just the right amount of pressure to help our partners accept and act on the change they need to meet their organizational goals. Working with him has been an invaluable experience.

Rob was an integral part of the post-merger integration of our senior leadership team. He gave us valuable relational tools for working through the inevitable issues that arose in the months following our merger, but more importantly he created conversational space and coaching that allowed us to confront those issues head-on before they got out of hand.

Over the past year my coaching engagement with Robert has been pivotal in my development as a senior executive. His capacity to provide direct feedback in an empathetic manner and listen deeply provided me the space to work through several important decisions and helped me lead my growing company more effectively.

Our University worked with Robert to enhance communication, surface grass-roots ideas, and encourage a future-focused orientation in the context of enrollment declines, budget reductions, and legislative actions. Robert facilitated multiple large group Open Space conferences across an eight month period through which faculty and staff generated practical, high-impact recommendations, many of which were implemented immediately. Robert was skillful at helping participants feel comfortable while engaging with each other around challenging and sometimes contentious topics. The net result was better relationships, improved communication, and a clearer path forward to a stronger collective community.

Customized Leadership Development

Why not just send your managers to ‘leadership school?' Customized programs reinforce your organization’s specific strategies and unique values.  It's not just about training your managers, it's about improving your overall results. That’s our sweet spot.

Team
Effectiveness

What do high performing teams actually do? They work hard on crucial matters to attain great results, while building strong bonds of trust and continually learning together. We help teams get there.

Executive
Coaching

Why invest in leadership coaching? It's a ‘force multiplier.’ If your executives improve their effectiveness, they build capabilities throughout their organizations. In other words, its not just about them – they pay it forward.

Organizational
Change

Why do over 60% of planned change efforts fail? Leaders often want to change others’ behavior, without recognizing the need to change themselves first. Our approach ensures that the change process is consistent with your desired goals.
