Executive Team Reset

Bringing Order, Function and Vitality to Troubled Teams, Partnerships and Family Enterprise

WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

You got us to a spot we could go forward from. And worked with us to get us (to) keep talking and going forward.

We were sick of each other. Blow-ups at every turn. For too long, nothing got done. Your work with me and both of my partners gave us a reset. You made us calm, showed each one of us our assets- and baggage. Amazing, you did get all three of us to see ourselves and own it. You taught grown men how to talk to each other. You got us to a spot we could go forward from. And worked with us to get us (to) keep talking and going forward. Things are good. Great job. Highly recommended.

Dave was a great help to me in letting go of some control and guiding my sons without suffocating them.

I brought Dave in to work with my sons. I wanted to step back, but had low confidence that they could handle what I spent my adult life building. Some of the work turned out to be mine. He helped me let them lead, which was a huge adjustment for me. Dave was a great help to me in letting go of some control and guiding my sons without suffocating them. Honestly, it was not what I originally had in mind, nor was it easy to do. But necessary. Throughout, Dave was relentlessly forthright, a steady and capable hand as I worked the problem.

I continually marvel at my newfound capacity to understand what’s happening with me and manage my inner experience

Thanks for asking me to talk about the experience of working with you, because in thinking about it, I realize I’m rather proud to say I’m a recovering rage-aholic. Your work with me changed my lifetime habit of getting exactly what I wanted by being a terrorist, basically, and then being alone with no way to enjoy it. I continually marvel at my newfound capacity to understand what’s happening with me and manage my inner experience so that I no longer bludgeon the mission-critical people around me and send them running for the hills…

During a very difficult time, your work with me was artful.

During a very difficult time, your work with me was artful. It was a significant period of growth for me. I emerged stronger, renegotiated several key relationships and adjusted my operating style. I’ve regained my balance and confidence.

Beyond a vague notion of “raising my game”, I had no idea what I’d be working on. But there was plenty. And, in the end, I got exactly that: a better game, in so many ways. You can’t think this way alone.

Everything was going well and our team seemed happy with me. I intuitively thought coaching was a good idea, but I had a hard time figuring out why for me. I know another CEO that had a great experience with you, and I liked your keynote. Maybe not such great reasons to enroll a coach.

You can’t think this way alone. You can’t see yourself. And you don’t realize until you’re taking what you call “the helicopter view” how many ways you could be more effective. It was a great experience working with you.
