Testimonials

I had the pleasure of working with Cathy through an executive coaching program at GSN Games provided to rising leaders in the company over the course of 1 year. Cathy was instrumental to my professional development as a leader. Some of the traits that set Cathy apart from other coaches I've interacted with is:

  1. high EQ and gauge of company culture
  2. understanding of self awareness and energy management
  3. valuing cultural differences and adapting communication styles to both the coached employee and the organization.

Cathy was able to learn the leadership styles of my peers and upper management and crystalize how to effectively communicate with these stakeholders. In parallel she invested time in understanding my team's needs and work/communication styles, helping me in managing both up, down and laterally. She made this possible through tailoring my coaching experience to my employee value proposition, leadership style and cultural style while it a fun and rewarding experience!

About a year and a half ago, I woke up one day and did not recognize myself. I was angry, uninspired, and generally unpleasant to be around - personally and professionally. I knew that I could not continue the way things were going - my health was being impacted too - and I asked for help…and my firm set up some coaching. When I say that Cathy changed/saved my life, it is not hyperbole. Cathy gets to the very core of who you are and what is triggering your behavior, demeanor, reactions, etc. She then helps you find ways to work through these moments in a more positive and effective way. My co-workers, family, and friends have all noticed a significant change in my behavior. I cannot thank Cathy enough and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for coaching and clarity!

Cathy is a great coach. While she has very deep knowledge on leadership across various dimensions, her real strength is helping people finding their own answers by guiding them through tailored and profound questions. Cathy asks questions about 'who you are' and helps people find their own strengths to leverage. She emotionally connects and the coaching relationships sustain beyond the on-site process time. She has a deep understanding on cultural differences and she helps people understand how the leadership can be more effective across different cultural nuances.

Cathy and I have worked together for more than 10 years and I don't know anyone who possesses such an array of talent in the coaching/facilitation field. With groups, she is highly skilled at soliciting and gaining involvement; as an individual leadership coach, she is sterling in her ability to listen and synthesize. Her strengths are her ability to gain involvement, her range of knowledge in the fields of leadership and communication, and her ability to listen and get right to the crux of the issue.

Cathy is one of the finest individuals I have had the pleasure of working with. She is a first-class consultant, always focused on providing value to her clients and able to always stay one step head. She is a very creative designer, an engaging relationship manager and a thoroughly professional and thoughtful practitioner. She led the coaching and management development practice with aplomb, developing sought-after thought-leadership and content. She was also one of those individuals that always made things go better, made the people around her feel better and worked tirelessly to ensure the solutions worked.
