David is an inspirational and genuine thought partner. He and I worked together extensively during a critical juncture in my career, as I made the turn into a divisional C-level position in a (now) Fortune 5 company. He challenged me to think creatively and push the boundaries of the status quo to enable meaningful change in the organization and build confidence and trust with my peers and executive leadership. His counsel was highly valued as I built a more strategic Finance function, providing guidance on how to effectively influence the business and build credibility. He also facilitated many sessions with our team, helping to create a positive and engaging dynamic among the group.

Michael's coaching and mentoring, was key to me becoming a leader who can run a large and nimble organization with executive presence and in a self-assured way. Learning new skills and developing an organizational mindset have greatly contributed to my success, and the success of my team, in effectively navigating diverse, multiple stakeholders. The skills that I have learned through Michael's coaching and mentoring have been invaluable to me in growing my career, broadening my horizons, and ultimately providing the foundation for me to become the Chief Customer Officer at two of my last three companies.

Michael played a critical role in helping me succeed as a partner at a major strategy consulting firm. I had taken over responsibility for the firm's West Coast Business Technology Office (a rapidly growing area) and a major expansion in terms of my role. Michael helped me initially as a personal coach – together we identified specific behavior changes that could strengthen my performance and mechanisms for engraining those changes. Based on that success, Michael and I then designed a lighter weight approach that we used with all of the members of our team. What I liked about Michael was that he was enormously pragmatic and was able to bring about real change rapidly through our work together with benefits that lasted many years at the firm.

“ Over several years Global Reach Leadership played an important role in developing up and coming leaders and training their teams while I worked at Oracle. They are deeply committed to both the personal and leadership development of leaders, and are particularly adept at helping them create alignment with their teams and the larger organization. The result has been leaders who are more effective across the enterprise and in tune with their people and stakeholders. ”
