TESTIMONIALS

“I hired Alan because I felt as though I was failing my team due to my inefficient management style and needed a professional coach that would teach me new/different/better ways to think. My experience with Alan has been outstanding. He is very knowledgeable and genuinely committed to having his clients benefit from his wisdom. He’s a great listener, honest and candid. He provides constructive feedback and is always nonjudgmental and respectful. Alan is always eager to follow up on previous conversations and provide guidance as situations change. He continually provides contexts that help me “get out of my box” of preconceived thinking, which generates new paths forward. He has taught me better ways to manage and mentor my team while holding them accountable at a whole new level. My management team has improved radically since we’ve started working together. I credit that to the work we’ve done together. I highly recommend hiring Alan, but only if you are
open-minded and truly want to change your ways.”
