TESTIMONIALS

A Few Words From The C-Suite . . . 

 

"Tim’s deep experience comes through in his clarity and insights. He takes it all in and then helps you find those pearls, polish them and speak your truth. Working with Tim is like being with a captain in the storm who is bringing the lightbulb to the lighthouse. He’s the picture of calm and focused having seen it all before, and he is indistractable from his singular intent of helping you. I’m a psychologist, but when I sat with Tim, he worked the magic on me, and helped me identify my actions and drivers, so I could control the outcome of my destiny.  Let him put you in the driver’s seat too." - R.M., Venture Capital Principle

"I really enjoyed your session. It was more than enlightening, it was empowering.  I enjoy fishing and my take away was whenever everyone knows where the fish are, it's easy to get fished out quickly.  But if you anticipate ahead of time where the fish are heading, you get a huge advantage." - M.E., CEO

"We spend our careers promoting products and services with the proper marketing mix, yet when it comes time to market ourselves for that next job opportunity, we fail to follow the same guidelines.

There's no question about it:  your suggestions will significantly improve the odds of reaching my aspirations." - M.R., CEO

"I want to thank you for taking time and discussing the strategy and approach in real detail. This is the first time I am doing a job search after my long career in a multinational company and then as founder/CEO of the startup. Your insight was very helpful. You gave me a systematic approach on how to look into job search from the other side. I have been hiring people for the past 30 years but when it comes to looking for an appropriate career, it's a different science of how to find the right opportunity and how to build a brand for it. I have already taken actions you recommended on looking for the right contacts and changing my profile on LinkedIn, and will work on others in coming days. I will keep you posted. Thanks for your valuable time and coaching." - S.P., CEO

"Tim, thanks for our call a few weeks ago. I mentioned I'd share with you my results from the reach outs. I actually started out to write thank you emails (no biz talk) to people who I already know who have been previous board advisors, founders, and super-connectors along the way. That has been a great way to break into some of the strategies we talked about on the phone. That has sparked amazing conversations where opportunities have already arisen in a very short amount of time. I'm going to keep along the same path for more cold reach outs with the similar tone / approach we discussed." - B.P., CEO
