“Andrea possesses a keen eye and
provides excellent judgment in her
organizational analysis. She
brings a wealth of experience to each
situation. I trust her
recommendations, and would ask her to
work with my organization
again…anytime.”

“Early on, Carol made it a point to gain
an intricate knowledge and understanding
of our organization’s most pressing
issues. This positioned her as an
invaluable resource – not simply
addressing our concerns at face value,
but digging down and ‘diagnosing’ our
core problems – so that we are
continuously working the ‘real’ issues.
She is a brilliant strategist who has
helped us become a far more
collaborative and productive
organization than we ever have been.
Carol’s work has had a direct positive
impact on our leaders, managers, and
teams.”

the needs of our group; and she
flawlessly facilitates training and
development experiences that

lead and manage.”

significant experience in the most
challenging of corporate venues.
She is wise, intelligent, savvy, and
particularly good at keeping tough
issues on the table with clients – she
doesn’t let them get away with excuses!
One of the aspects of Carol’s coaching
that I find most compelling is her lack
of fear. She is totally willing
and able to be with the toughest of
clients – no one intimidates her; she
let’s no one put her off her brilliance
as a coach.”

“The
coaching experience has helped me
develop as a whole person. I have
come to realize that professional goals
must be balanced with life goals.
Andrea has helped me see that
perspective and take meaningful action
in many aspects of my life. Andrea
has acted as a sounding board in many
conflict resolutions. By listening
and asking very insightful questions,
Andrea has helped me resolve complex
problems. Having an unbiased,
neutral person to confide in has enabled
me to grow professionally and
personally. Since I began talking
to Andrea I have climbed mountains,
traveled the world, developed reading
habits, eliminated my debts, started my
MBA, and began to tackle some complex
relationships that had been avoided in
life. Thank you!!!”

Managing Director, FedEx Ground –

“I have
noted – sometimes with awe – Carol’s
calm, strong and wise approach to
challenges and issues, her sharp
insight, her ability to see clearly,
question firmly but gently and help
others move toward new possibilities and
goal-directed action. Carol is a
great coach. She listens with huge
attentiveness and wastes no time gently
steering her client to the nub of their
own concern by her deft questioning and
ability to heighten awareness with a
quick turn of phrase. She helped
me get right to the core of my pressing
issue and didn’t let me off the hook
until I broke through my own resistance.
She was instrumental in helping me
devise a plan and an accountability for
it, to create the change I desired.
She does so with fierce compassion,
warmth and humour. As a client, I
know that she is a powerful catalyst for
powerful choice.”

indecision to a space of being
proactive, thus more productive.
She possesses a way of shifting my focus
from that of trepidation to excitement,
bridging the gap to assure forward
movement. Carol not only guides me
into a more positive direction, but she
brings forth a tremendous amount of
knowledge of business practice and life
experience to help lead the way to
enthusiasm and confidence.”
