I was taking a major step forward in my career moving from a Technology Sales Rep to managing two teams of Sales reps in very different divisions. While I was incredibly excited for the opportunity, I was terrified of the high stress, long hours, and negative impacts to my family and health. After all, I was already struggling with these things as an individual contributor.

“I really liked how Vicki projected a positive framework from which to develop a greater sense of team and individual and collective strengths. This is the opposite of coming in as ‘You’re broken we need to fix you’ as so many consultants do. She relates to people on an everyday level instead of teaching concepts on an academic level. She is also approachable and non-judgmental, a rare quality with speakers and facilitators.”

I then closely followed the steps and instructions Vicki provided, and as a result by the end of three months coaching, I have gained solid trust from my boss. Through my second performance review, my achievements, performance and leadership skills were formally recognized. Even more important, I have found the balance between my work and my life again.”

Nothing gives me more joy than seeing people win. I LOVE helping people articulate their biggest dreams, overcome their fears, learn new ways of thinking and behaving, move forward powerfully, stay in action, and achieve beyond their dreams!

I believe that when people have the right tools, relationship problems can be solved before serious damage occurs. It is my passion to give people these tools so they can stop looking over their shoulder, know that they have the support they need from the people who matter the most and be fee to get on with their lives and work.

Empowering people to be the best leader they can be is so rewarding for me because I get to see the impact powerful people have in so many areas that affect so many lives. The ripple effect is amazing. To me, it is like teaching someone to fish – giving people tools they use for the rest of their lives.

I get inspired when I hear stories about what teams accomplish together. Being able to bring insight and new perspectives to teams, and to provide them with tools to become more effective is highly rewarding.
