Client Testimonials
"Ruth has been an invaluable resource to me as I built a new team, established new leaders, policies and processes, and grew my business. I was starting from a place of not knowing what step one was, while knowing I had 100+ steps to complete. She has a great process around brainstorming, planning, execution and reflection that enabled us to identify a plan (specifically, a waterfall of meetings involving different levels of my organization), carry out those meetings, and regroup in between the meetings to digest new information and course correct as needed. We are over a year into our engagement and the "new leaders" are no longer "new", two of them are no longer with the team (which has been great for the overall health of the company), and my organization is highly engaged with revenues consistently 20+% higher year over year. I appreciate her real world corporate experience at all levels, her great education in the coaching world, and her continued education around emotional intelligence and team building. I fully endorse Ruth and encourage you to reach out to her if you are looking for insightful coaching for yourself and/or your team."
Sabrina, Business Owner, Health Services
"I have worked with Ruth in an executive coaching capacity for a while, and I HIGHLY recommend her. Ruth is not just a coach who is "wise" and has a strong opinion, Ruth has decades of professional, executive experience, successfully advancing her career with a Fortune 50 company. Ruth is an honest, direct communicator, who will help you discover the best path for yourself, but also help you drive yourself to reach the best outcome. And if you want someone who will also make you laugh hysterically and have a blast while doing this, Ruth is the one who can do that too!"
Jen, Founder, Executive Search Firm
"Ruth is an incredibly talented leader and coach. She provided an unfiltered, judgment free zone for me and in that space I grew exponentially. I learned how to utilize and adapt to both my strengths and weaknesses. Ruth is fair but challenging in the best ways. I attribute much of my professional growth in the last three years to Ruth’s steady, insightful coaching."
Kyle, Chief Operating Officer
"Ruth is a talented, experienced corporate executive with a unique ability for bringing out the best in people. Ruth provided support to my finance department and was instrumental in helping to establish systems, and an operational infrastructure for financial reporting. Working with Ruth on a number of projects she brought a disciplined focus on operational excellence and improvements in operational strategies leading to a more streamlined and cost effective company structure. Ruth was a great business partner who brings dedication and excellence to all that she touches.
Ruth took the time to mentor one of my employees who blossomed from a shy young woman into a confident employee who eventually moved up into the management ranks. I attended many employee training sessions with Ruth. She is a compelling speaker with the ability to take complex subjects and make them understandable at all levels. Her presentation style fosters a sense of fun, engagement and enthusiasm with the audience. When I think of Ruth some words that come to mind are integrity, humor, dedication and passion."
Donna, Finance Executive
