My clients typically come from two places...
feeling burnt out and spread thin from being expected to move mountains with limited resources,
or
navigating a plateau in their career or overall life satisfaction—from organizational change to monumental life transitions.
and many others...
Firstly, he is a very warm, friendly, approachable person. I very much looked forward to my conversations with him. But more importantly in this context, he was very effective at helping me understand how to clear my own roadblocks in my career journey. He never told me what to do per se, but he was very good at boiling down complicated (often emotionally based) issues into simple, reflective questions. Discussed in such a way, I could start seeing some of the unconscious beliefs that drove certain actions, or inactions, that run contrary to my overall goals. I would joke that these were my career therapy sessions, but there’s real truth to that.

John's guidance has been instrumental in honing not just my leadership and executive communication skills, but also in significantly improving my self-regulation and emotional presence. Working with John is a seamless and enriching experience. He possesses a unique ability to facilitate profound personal growth by prompting the kind of deep introspection that peels back the layers, revealing core issues and areas for development. Through his skillful questioning and insightful feedback, John helped me to navigate and understand complex professional challenges, empowering me to emerge as a more effective and emotionally intelligent leader.

I was blessed to work with John as a career coach this past year. Not only was John patient and a good listener, he was very compassionate in his approach, and provided me with the tools and guidance I needed to navigate my career. The level of experience he brings to the table, and his unique ability to get one comfortable was instrumental in making the coaching experience successful. I am grateful to have had this opportunity and will encourage anyone who has the opportunity to work with John to do so without any hesitation. You will not regret it.

There are lessons I learned during these conversations that I’m confident I will utilize throughout my career. I never felt like he was rushing me through the process. Together, John and I uncovered personal strengths and experiences that I could leverage to become the person I wanted to be. The most effective thing John did for me at this stage was guide me to different perspectives in the way I thought about myself. There were sessions I (sometimes unknowingly) brought up doubts that by the end of the session, had turned into opportunities for growth.

John is an incredible facilitator of dialogue that challenges you, and makes you consider your choices with the end goal in mind. He does an amazing job of steering in such a way that the ideas flow from you (with his guidance of course), thus allowing you to maintain complete ownership of your process. I found my time with John to be incredibly productive

John is an exceptional executive coach, he takes the time to really understand areas of focus/development and translates into customized sets of actions to drive progress. What sets John apart is his very pragmatic approach coupled with the right balance of listening/reacting to lead to a productive development path. If you're looking to elevate your leadership to the next level then I couldn't recommend working with John enough.

John quickly became one of my key sources of support and guidance as I moved from the most challenging and painful chapter of my life into what I now consider to be the happiest and most successful just a year later. John is a highly gifted coach, with the ability to continuously adapt his approach as he learns which parts of me need to be protected and accommodated and which parts are ready to be challenged and reshaped. For anyone looking to make a change in their life who is even remotely curious about the benefits of having a coach, do yourself the biggest favor and reach out to John.

John was instrumental in helping solidify my true career and life goals to visualize the different paths I could take. Thanks to John's coaching I was able to better utilize my network to pursue positions I was both qualified for and passionate about and landed an ideal role in energy software consulting here in Houston! Reaching out to John for coaching was the best decision I made in my career exploration process, and I attribute my success to his commitment to developing a personalized strategy with me in his program.

My Coaching Process

1)
Take the most accurate, nuanced personality assessment out there.

All of my clients kick off the coaching engagement by taking the iEQ9 Professional Assessment, providing Integrative Enneagram’s most comprehensive 42-page report.  This powerful, scientifically validated framework reveals the core beliefs and motivations shaping your attention and choices, which shape your life, career, and leadership style.

The coaching engagement begins with a 90-minute discovery session to bring the details of the 42-page report to life and marry them with your current situation for unique insights into why you are where you are today. We’ll come away with the core development areas and a skeleton for the coaching plan.

3)
