One of the better books ostensibly about leadership I have read is Chris Hadfield’s An Astronaut’s Guide to Life on Earth (Random House, 2013). I didn’t start in on it with the expectation that it would enhance my own leadership, but as I often do during “down times,” I picked it up…

What people are saying about John:

“John left me with a greater understanding of myself and the tools needed to achieve personal success. I am grateful to have had him as a coach.
He created a comfortable environment with his humor, concentrated focus, questions and constant professionalism. The feedback he provided was thought provoking, allowing for self-exploration and personal decision making.
Adept at working through both professional and personal challenges, he was able to guide me through many personal “stuck” points, creating clarity and “aha” moments. Although I was not always clear as to what our talks would be about, he teased out deep rooted challenges needing discussion.”
– Justin, Panama City, Panama

John creates a wonderful experience that allows me to explore what’s going on in my head, throw ideas out into the open and together we look for those gems of truth. His skillful questions, kindness and reflections have helped me find paths through barriers in order to step closer to my goals. I wholeheartedly recommend him as a coach to anyone considering their next steps or struggling with achieving their goals

Thanks to John I was able to gain some valuable insight into my experience as a Manager, especially in regards to managing employees. Learning what works and what doesn’t in my business is a huge asset. Thanks John!
