We hired Stace to take our growing company, but disorganized culture, leadership and middle-management team to an organized, fluent and efficient well-oiled machine. Our Purpose was ‘to strengthen our [company] through genuine leadership, fluid communication, improved coaching and increased empowerment so that our people win now and for the future.’ We achieved much more than we thought was possible. Thank you, Stace.
Here’s what was most impressive about my work with Stace. While I did find some immediate benefits to the work we were doing together, I actually found myself more than two years later looking back to my work with her and applying those skills in a new job environment. Simply put, Stace teaches professional development skills that will last and pay off in ways that you won’t expect.
You have been an amazing coach and I am so impressed with your empathy and skills to read my updates and find a key area to point me in a positive direction. I can't believe it has been almost a year since we started my coaching engagement. You have always been in my comer even when I'm critical of myself and each meeting/message has helped me keep on track and make improvements. Each of your prompts focused me on key areas to learn and improve. Even my boss recognized the improvements you helped me make and became a strong supporter of coaching for development.
I feel fortunate to have been paired with Stace. She’s chosen a career where her shining star is so apparent, it can’t help but inspire others to unlock theirs--thank you for being a positive change agent.
