I have known Barbara in a professional capacity for almost a decade. As someone who works with the most sophisticated and accomplished senior leaders across various jurisdictions and geographies, I can confidently say that she is one of the most complete, engaged, professional, and insightful leaders I have met. She has the rare balance of pragmatic, "been there done that" sensibility coupled with a drive and resolve to exceed expectations and desired objectives. She possesses savant-like EQ. She connects and understands others almost instinctively. She listens, cares, understands and enacts all with the goal of improving your objectives as a leader and manager. I freely recommend Barbara as a Master class coach to those I believe will benefit from her guidance, which are many. She is a joy to work with.

I had the pleasure and honour of working for and alongside Barbara for many years. As I reflect on our working relationship, I believe my development, learning, growth and strengths - developed in large part with her mentorship and guidance.
Barbara is an inspirational and aspirational leader. Caring for people at the forefront of her leadership style while finding that balance to challenge, drive change, pushing innovation and entrepreneurship. She inspires us to be the best leaders at both "the what and the why" of leadership.
I personally have worked for and with many talented leaders in my career and would highly recommend any connection with Barbara - it will lead to meaningful and positive change.

I attribute my accelerating professional growth to Barbara's coaching, as working with Barbara has been nothing short of transformative. Before Barbara's coaching, I was feeling stuck and uncertain about my career direction a a young professional. I had ambitious goals but lacked the clarity and confidence to pursue them. I was then lucky enough to be introduced to Barbara.
From the moment I had my first conversation with her, I knew I was in good hands of an experienced industry professional. She was empathetic, understanding, and motivational. Barbara's coaching was paramount for everything I know about industry standards and ethics, as well as for my obtainment of a variety of soft skills.
Under Barbara's coaching, I was able to see tangible career progress. This progress led me to obtain professional success one after another. If you are seeking a coach that goes above and beyond to help you unlock your potential and achieve your goals, I wholeheartedly believe you have just found it.
