This year, all of our Marketing teams participated in a Kolbe team workshop and virtually 100% of us are better prepared for team collaboration.
Holly Randahl, Associate Marketing Manager, Fortune 100
I was somewhat hesitant about the value I would derive from working with a coach, when I first hired Susan. Within the first few sessions, the value of her insight and coaching became truly evident. She has a wealth of coaching experience that she imparts in a very effective way: part listener, part coach, part educator. My experience was extremely positive. Every day, I attempt to recall her guidance and insight. I know I am further ahead than I was the week before.
Alan Iovine, Account Executive, SAP
It is extremely helpful, especially when you get to a certain level within an organization, to receive feedback that is void of internal company objectives, agendas, or politics. Working with Susan gave me an unbiased view of the strengths that I should leverage more fully as well as the areas that I should strive to develop. I appreciate the opportunity to work with her.
Chris Corley, Senior Vice President Corporate Sales, CDW
For years I heard from a variety of people that I needed to meet Susan, in 2008 we finally met. Without sounding too cliché, I wish I met her sooner. Susan has been very instrumental in helping me grow my business. She combined many disciplines that at first glance seemed somewhat unrelated however, by taking her coaching and implementing her ideas we found clarity and have produced outstanding results. I give Susan my highest recommendation.
Jeff Hornstein, President, The Speaker’s Choice
Susan has an uncanny ability to be laser-focused in her listening. She gets what’s going on in the present yet peers far into the future, in any situation. She cuts through and gets to the heart of the matter with such grace and finesse. I reach my goals faster and more effortlessly with Susan’s coaching wisdom.
Kathleen Peterson, Principal, Equinox Associates
Susan’s unique approach combines original thinking from both psychology and business consulting. Susan shows through powerful management psychology and real world business sense, that leaders can break through and reach the next level!
Lynn Crim, Controller, Freeman Seating Company
Susan’s coaching techniques and my Kolbe assessment helped me to make an informed, rational decision about an important step in my professional development. The process was well-defined every step of the way, and our discussions provided me with clarity and insights that will be useful in any major decisions I face in the future.
Anne Yates, Independent Financial Advisor
I only hire new employees using Kolbe. It is one of many important elements to making a good hiring decision. The more experience I have with it, the more appreciation I have for the insights of the tool and Susan’s ability to interpret it.
Lori Kleiman, National Practice Leader, HRadvantage
My experience with Susan has been a true growth opportunity. Her ability to get me to explore my strengths as well as my areas for growth opportunity has helped to position me well for my next professional transition. I not only found her coaching valuable in my career goals, but I also have a new perspective on the way I manage some aspects of my personal life.
John Davis, Area Manager/Vice President,
Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc.
Susan always brings a different perspective that allows me to be open to new ways of understanding. Susan does a great job of providing practical advice and tips yet still uncovering underlying beliefs that may be standing in the way. I always feel more energized after a session. Susan is constantly exploring new tools and ways of thinking that keep our work fresh and meaningful.
Rebecca Maggard, Partner, Rose, Synder and Jacobs
For me, the impact of the Kolbe analysis and Susan’s coaching have actually increased over the years. As I start a new venture, I have found the insights gained to be invaluable. I know where I need to pay extra attention. I know how to structure my role in the enterprise to play to my strengths and how to build energy and enjoyment. The ripple effects make the investment in coaching well worthwhile.
