from others

We are honored to hear the experiences others have had through our work together.

"Anyone who is facing a seemingly intractable business situation should talk to Angie. She has a breadth and depth of business experience that is hard to find, and one couldn’t find a better working partner. She will help you get things moving again."

— Tony Petrella, Co-founder and managing partner of Block-Petrella-Weisbord. 1968 – 1995 • 
Executive Director of National Organization Development Network. 1975-1985

"I have known Angie for a number of years and had the pleasure to work with her on a consulting project in my organization. Angie brought extraordinary expertise to the project. Because of her work, our organization gained insight we otherwise would have missed. Angie’s work exceeded my expectations in every sense. She left us with a product that was practical and we could apply immediately. I would recommend her as a consultant or coach without reservation."

— Mike Valentine, Former VP HR, New York Times

"I engaged Angie to review and revamp standards and performance criteria for a call center that handles well over 1 million calls per year- within a fairly short time, she and her team completed several key pieces and procedures that had been missing in our day to day operations, leading to huge increases in the performance of our people and, just as important, the satisfaction of our large customer base.

Angie did a great job of inserting herself into our daily operations, and gaining the confidence of our people- without that, the project would not have been nearly as successful.  She was able to get the staff to engage and embrace the changes, and to really take ownership of the execution and ongoing improvements. I would not hesitate to use her again- or to recommend her to others!"

—Bruce Eklund, Former VP Services and Support, Cardinal Health/ CareFusion

"Angie facilitated several rounds of virtual workshops for my team. She was adept at tailoring her work to match our internal needs and objectives, yet listened deeply on a human emotional level to inspire engagement and understanding. Angie is a master at awakening the desire for positive change in others.”

— Marco Cassone, MSOD • Principal, Crux 100 Consulting

"Sometimes when we are lost and are looking for answers to our problems or issues we do not realize that we may not be asking ourselves the right questions. What I have come to learn is that Angie has the wisdom to know the right questions to ask at the right time. These questions brought forth new perspectives that I had hidden from others my whole life, and that I was also hiding from myself. Angie is a caring and warm-hearted person who truly seeks to understand who you are by actively listening. Within just a few minutes of talking to her one on one, I felt like she knew and understood me better than most other people in my life. During coaching sessions, she is very perceptive and knows when she should ask a question to help me think through my own thoughts, when she should give her own opinion or advice, or even when she should be silent to let me talk or think about what was just said. As a great coach does, she does not talk to me, but with me. She may not necessarily tell me what I want to hear but will tell me what I need to hear. She helped me find the person that I wanted to be and challenged me to become that person. My life has completely changed for the better since meeting Angie and talking with her, and I have her to thank for guiding me towards my life’s purpose. I could not have asked for a better coach, advisor, or friend."

— Tim Matthew, Conflict Resolution Graduate Student at George Mason University

"From a personal perspective, participation in this core team has been a journey of not only learning about new tools, but one of professional growth. Although the most difficult piece of this process lies ahead, I know it will also be the most meaningful. I am confident that the amount of thought, planning, and collaboration this team brings to the table each week will bring about ideas for improvements that otherwise may have been overlooked or never voiced.”

"Angie was an amazing coach. She took the time to listen and emphathize with each of her coachees. She allowed us to independently discuss our ideas, but guided us along the way when it was needed. She helped walk us through our own thought processes, without pushing any agenda of her own. I would recommend her as a coach. She truly seemed to care and understand what we were going through. I plan to keep in touch with her."

— from a leadership program participant

"Angie was an awesome coach and I am so lucky to have her. Her background gives her so much credibility. Angie was very laid-back, and let us drive all of our conversations and coaching sessions, and provided feedback reactively based on our thoughts. She had astute observations and challenged us to think differently based on what we were saying." 

— from a leadership program participant

"Angie was my coach at a corporate retreat event. From the first call leading up to the event to the several follow up calls afterwards, she has been nothing short of amazing. Her time, attention and consideration have contributed to a complete emotional and mental transformation that was much needed in my life. These changes that I can directly contribute to the reflections that Angie encouraged have significantly impacted my personal and professional life in more ways that I could have ever imagined. As someone who never seeks help, even during trying times, I was surprised by how quickly Angie changed my perspective on the necessity of a coach as a crucial part of my life and will forever be grateful for it."

— Alissa K., leadership program participant and coaching client

"I was fortunate enough to spend the better part of a week with Angie in a small group session of 10 of my colleagues from around the nation, none of whom I had met prior to the experience. Angie was able to take a group of strangers (in the same profession, but dissimilar on nearly every other level) and immediately create a  comfortable space for us to share our thoughts and troubles in an entirely open / honest format. I found the experience to be the singularly most rewarding of my career and I credit much of that to Angie, as she allowed us to to truly connect with one another and our own thoughts. I have kept in touch with Angie in the months since, and she is always genuinely interested in how I am progressing against goals I've set and has been incredibly supportive - definitely someone you want in your corner!"

— Lynne Mundy, leadership program participant and coaching client

"Angie demonstrates courage and compassion as she helps others achieve a new understanding of themselves. She provides insights that provoke individual learning and help teams move to new levels of performance."
