I really appreciated your insights and practical perspectives on improving my growth areas. I am confident that my takeaways will not only greatly inform my action plan, but will also positively and significantly impact my development as a leader moving forward.

Working with Margaret was hands down one of the best career decisions I’ve made. She made sure to keep my goals in mind and keep us focused on achieving those throughout our time working together. Her thoughtful and direct approach helped me work through complex issues with a solutions focused mindset. Margaret has a unique way of framing up situations and providing perspective that I didn’t know was possible. Her demeanor, and sense of humor through it all, was so helpful during a time of complex professional decision making. I greatly look forward to working with her again in the future!

Thanks to Margaret’s deep experience, insight and wisdom I grew significantly as a leader.  She not only helped me to position myself and negotiate for a new position – working with her has set me up for success in the new role with the insights and skills I acquired in working with her.

Margaret is a premier executive coach Her deep experience helped me navigate organizational structure, learn to seek win-win solutions, and identify and mitigate my challenges.

Her long experience in the executive recruitment field gives her critical insight into the negotiation process, and produces amazing results.

My objective was to build a more successful relationship with my manager based on mutual trust. With her financial services experience, Margaret challenged me to re-think my approach. We developed strategies and approaches that helped me build more trust with my manager. She was highly supportive and was always there for me. I appreciate her patience and empathy in helping me grow professionally.

I was nervous and overwhelmed with my new job. Margaret’s onboarding executive coaching helped me break my new responsibilities into manageable pieces, create a clear plan, and build the confidence to hit the ground running. She helped prepare me for high-stakes meetings, gaining stakeholder input in advance. She also provided guidance on my becoming a first-time working parent—a challenge I hadn’t fully anticipated. Her guidance was thoughtful, practical, and grounded in real insight. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Margaret has a knack for asking the right questions that reveal areas for further exploration and helped me to zero in on the right issues. In a short period of time, she helped me see the joy and opportunities within my current organization, and encouraged me to take a more ambitious internal role than I would naturally target. For my new responsibilities, my goal was to develop stronger leadership skills to work with a new leadership team of direct reports focusing on driving results with oversight, delegation, efficiency, and productivity. It was a pleasure working with her and I’d recommend her unequivocally.

Margaret has the true capacity to listen, emphasize, and provide guidance in an impactful and meaningful way. During my career transition, Margaret helped me build professional relationships with my colleagues up and down the ladder. She provided clear strategy and tactics to help me deliver the operational aspects of my job. But, most importantly, she helped me develop skills to break down barriers and build effective and enjoyable relationships with my colleagues. With perfect combination of razor-sharp perception and proclivity for constructive feedback, Margaret helped me channel my eagerness to succeed. After 8 months of coaching, I have learned and practiced invaluable life-long skills that will set me up for a lifetime of professional success and happiness. I owe a debt of gratitude to her and am equally grateful to have had the pleasure of working with her.

Margaret and I partnered initially when I was an internal CEO succession at my organization. After six months of her highly effective coaching focusing on leveraging my strengths and addressing some blind spots, my board of directors selected me to be the next CEO. Margaret and I continued working together as I navigated my new responsibilities, helping me hone my ability to communicate vision, set priorities, and delegate effectively. Her conversational and practical coaching style leveraged her diverse skills, helping me clarify my development areas and gain insight. Understanding how my leadership initiatives were received and their impact were invaluable as I built a new Executive Leadership Team comprised of my former peers. Her coaching approach is practical and organic leadership coaching at its best!

Our executive coaching absolutely exceeded my expectations. Our discussions really honed in on some key areas for my development and, more importantly, left me with a concrete plan to address them. I hope to work with you again in the future.

I had the opportunity to work with Margaret as she coached me through my promotion to Partner at my PE firm. My new role was unstructured — she helped me define success, establish clear goals and milestones, and track my progress.

I truly believe that I am better prepared for success in my new role after having gone through Margaret’s executive coaching process.

Your direct and pragmatic approach was so helpful in developing strategies for overcoming my development areas, especially in gaining buy-in from others. I love the action plan we created together and genuinely believe that the behavioral changes are both achievable and necessary for my long-term success.
