who i work with

The majority of my clients are entrepreneurs and executives but I enjoy effectively working with any individual or group that fits this description:

My clients are people who deep-down sense something big in themselves that they want to bring out. They tend to be bright, determined, committed, courageous, have a good sense of humor, and are ready to go for it. My clients are thrilled with the discovery and adventure of engaging their new insights. My clients value the honesty and intensity of direct communication and love being challenged and supported to shine.

If this sounds like you then you face some unique challenges:

  • Lack of peers- People who are driven to shine often find few peers. Many people are satisfied with the status quo, but you want passionate engagement, creative ideas, truthful conversation, to be challenged to be your best, and relationships with others who are as fiery as you are. You want to take risks and find out what you’re really made of. You want to change the world and work with others that are as committed and capable as you are.
  • Work and life are not separate -You don’t have the luxury of “leaving work at work”. You have passion that requires full engagement, even when you aren’t at the office. This creates a variety of challenges such as efficient multi-tasking, sustained energy levels, and finding personal fulfillment in the face of big demands.
  • Success requires excellent leadership -Excellent leadership demands excellence as a human being. Few people are naturally great leaders and fewer leaders have people in their circle who can tell them the truth and help them be more effective and rise to the challenge of greatness. The modern leader empowers others and directs their business in a socially conscious way.
  • Responsibility - You are responsible for big decisions, for engaging others effectively, and for understanding the bigger picture at any given moment. You must communicate to engage others and navigate the often treacherous territory of telling the truth with integrity without alienating people. You have a high degree of awareness, making it necessary for you to be more responsible than those around you because you can “see” more.
  • Time and energy seem to be scarce. This can affect performance, efficiency, innovation, quality of life, and business success. Like many entrepreneurs and executives under the constant challenge of finding enough time and energy, you sometimes barely keep your head above water, much less have the luxury of strategically guiding your business and life to greater and greater levels of success.
  • Personal growth and happiness can take a back seat to business- Work demands often trump personal life demands precisely because you need work to even afford a personal life. A vicious circle occurs that is hard to break free from. This can lead to burnout, a lack of meaning, dissatisfaction in personal relationships, identity crisis, illness, and complaints from your family and friends that they never see you or want more of you.
  • Spirituality is MIA - This is an often overlooked but crucial area. Your spirituality can be both a guiding light and point of orientation in your life. While rarely talked about, your spiritual center informs the expression of your purpose and the decisions you make day-to-day. Integrating spirituality seamlessly into the rest of your world is not only possible, but necessary and adds meaning and richness to all experiences.

The approach I take with clients is successful because it is designed to work specifically for the many dimensions of the modern human being. We get to the core very quickly, usually within the first session or two, so we can get to work right away on the business of shining.

I find the challenges and opportunities faced by entrepreneurs and executives immensely rewarding to work with. I enjoy being a cohort in:

  • Communication
  • Leadership development
  • Product innovation
  • Marketing
  • Strategy
  • Relationship issues
  • Employee challenges
  • Vision development
  • Expanded service offerings
  • Discovery and development of life purpose
  • Increasing vitality
  • Increasing effectiveness
  • Empowerment
  • Citizenship
  • Social responsibility
  • All phases of entrepreneurial development
  • Increased revenue
  • Developing revenue streams
  • Client/customer interactions
  • And, in fact, all aspects of a client’s unique world

I do my best work with people ready to go to the next level in their life.
