What people say...

“Although, I’ve had a robust network of senior leaders as mentors, I haven’t been able to realize the career breakthroughs that are important to me. Janet has guided me to take a holistic view of my values and my capabilities thus enabling me to explore how my career could align with them. The benefits of this change are evident in the fact that I’m having greater career satisfaction without it taking a toll on my family and my health.” –Senior Director, Microsoft

“I came to Janet at a crossroads in my career; I had a new role with some significant challenges that I hadn’t faced before. I was beginning to lose confidence in myself, when I decided to give coaching a try. With Janet’s help I was able to isolate the areas in which I was blocked, change how I thought about the challenges, and come up with a framework that has allowed me to break through my own barriers, and make a difference in the business.”   –Chief of Staff, Microsoft 

“I had the privilege to be coached by Janet and I have benefited professionally and personally from our work together.  
One particular area that I worked with Janet was change/transition management.  Janet was instrumental in helping me work and grow through a few big work & life transitions.  At many times during these transitions I would feel "stuck," not sure what to do, or how to move forward.  Janet always had very creative questions and analogies to help me see things from a different light, understand the situation, clarify what my goals and expectations were, and then ask critical questions to help me get there.  I am so thankful for the insights gained through our work together, and highly recommend her!”

“I trust Janet completely as my coach. She helped me throughout a particularly challenging and stressful project within my career to isolate challenges, create a plan of action and drive "wins" within my team.  Janet brings a systemic, strategic and thoughtful approach to each session and her uncanny ability to listen to both what I was saying, as well as what I was not saying, brought about a shift in perspective and new, creative ways of thinking about issue resolution.  I would not have been nearly as effective as a leader without Janet's coaching and support.”  –Consultant, Seattle-based Firm

After undergoing a self-assessment and receiving feedback from my colleagues, I learned that I wasn't showing the types of leadership skills and behaviors I wanted. Janet provided the space and offered questions  that took me from being a person adhered to rigid ideas and agendas to an individual who recognized that such ingrained practices were preventing me from being a transformational leader.  After working with Janet, I can attest that I have become a much more thoughtful listener and flexible planner in my quest to ensure individuals feel valued and validated during our interactions. Such a profound shift has allowed me to bear witness to solutions that previously I may have missed. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work with Janet! -Development Director, non-profit organization
