“What makes working with Tim so special? That’s easy. It’s his heart. He has skill that is up there with the best of the best of leadership developers and coaches. Add that skill with Tim’s care for the people he works with, and you get an amazing combination. Tim’s work isn’t work to him. It’s vocation. It’s service. It’s doing whatever he can to help you become the best version of yourself and make the biggest difference you want to make in the world. I’ve been working with him for almost a decade and plan to continue for years to come!”

“I have had the rare opportunity of not only being coached by Tim but observing his leadership development style and approach. The two often show up together in a conversation, which is masterful. Tim uses his leadership techniques during coaching sessions by remaining constantly curious, asking challenging questions that make you think differently, and by giving you the space you need to think through a solution on your own. I often walk away from sessions thinking, I am smarter than I thought. Look at what I came up with! That’s powerful coaching.
Tim’s guidance to experiment with my own ideas between sessions has pushed me to take positive steps to meet and exceed my goals. I’ve worked with multiple coaches throughout my career, and I would recommend his thoughtful approach to anyone striving for the very best results.

“Tim is a fantastic coach! Tim worked with me as I was going through an unexpected career transition. I found his style to be empathetic, curious and compassionate. He wasn’t afraid to ask the difficult questions that allowed me to process what I wanted my next steps to be. His coaching work with me allowed me to enter into my next role feeling stronger and ready for the next step in my career.”

“Tim is an exceptional career coach whose input has significantly improved my professional life. With his guidance, I was able to improve my corporate social skills and get a boost to my career confidence, resulting in my being promoted to a Senior position. I already had many years of experience, but until I got Tim’s coaching, I was not able to take advantage of that experience.
Tim’s coaching style is an excellent blend of empathy and directness - I often describe him as ‘Jack Reacher’s kinder brother’. As I noted, his insights into how managerial leadership works have directly led to tangible improvements in both my career trajectory and workplace satisfaction. I highly recommend Tim to anyone seeking to advance their career.”

His sense of timing helps him ask thoughtful, useful questions at the most effective moments. His true commitment to adaptive leadership principles helps clients make significant progress on challenges big and small. I've personally enjoyed working with Tim and would recommend his practice without hesitation.”

“Working with Tim over the past few months has been transformative for me. He is very empathic, disciplined and professional. Our sessions have unlocked a clarity of purpose in me that I just didn't possess beforehand. I found myself struggling with my career circumstance and with his help, homework and his dedication to accountability, I have been empowered to take the hard steps that are improving my direction. I highly recommend Tim and know that you will have the same realization I have had: I should have worked with him as a coach long before I started.”

“I have had the pleasure of being coached by Tim for over a year. His open demeanor and non-judgmental way of question asking makes you feel comfortable exploring tough areas of necessary growth and bringing about greater self awareness. He also brings an element of faith through his questions which I particularly enjoy navigating through and allows a deeper discussion regarding values and the way I honor them in my life. Thank you Tim for being on this journey with me, holding me accountable, and encouraging me to grow and learn!”
