Reach for More

Just like the people featured below, I believe you can accomplish more than you think you can. Read about the incredible results my clients realized when they had the courage to Reach for More!

James Funderburk, CEO of Lotus Retail Group, LLC

Background: As a highly successful entrepreneur and CEO of an expanding business, James frequently found himself pulled in countless directions with little time to plan or prioritize.

Goal: Identify and prioritize the best use of his time and resources and develop routines that enabled him to stay focused.

Result: Increased productivity through identification and focus on what matters most. Through reframing priorities, James became a more effective leader by capitalizing on personal strengths, reducing unnecessary stress and gaining a clearer vision for business and prioritized goals.

Coaching helped me to gain clear insight about what my goals were, to see past the static and noise of my life, and to work towards those ends. Janet’s special ability to identify my strengths while eliminating many of the unproductive things that fill my precious time, quickly increased my effectiveness. She also helped me find a more disciplined approach to my business and, while not trying to change who I am, focused my energies in the direction needed.

I highly recommend Janet and “Reach for More” coaching to anyone who is looking to improve their effectiveness in meeting their goals or for someone who feels as though they have peaked and are looking for ways to reach a place of satisfaction in their work and personal life.

Casey Dorsey, Senior Vice President, Bank of America

Background: Casey is a talented and highly respected leader who has dedicated a great deal of her time to advancing her career.

Goal: Evaluate priorities and current use of time, find ways to integrate personal and professional goals, have more time for what matters most - herself

Results: Evaluated career opportunities and feels comfortable with decisions, ran half marathon in fall, spent more time with family, finding more joy in life

My coaching experience was very insightful and helpful.  It helped me to see some critical values and needs that I have that I had not been able to articulate and therefore really see how they impacted parts of my life (especially, when they weren’t being met).  It’s given me a whole new way to look at a situation, in a very personal way. Also, I’ve learned that when you listen to what your life is telling you, you’d be amazed at the results you get when you take hold of it.

Janet provided a safe, open environment where I felt very comfortable sharing things about myself that I didn’t share easily with others and definitely not all of it with one person.  She has a knack at asking the right questions to make a situation clearer. She also kindly “called me” on some things that were just there that I needed to hear.

Mathew Kramer, National Account Executive, MetLife Insurance Company

Background: Mat’s strong operational background and dedication to meeting the needs of his clients often leaves little time to focus on acquiring new business.

Goal: Spend more time on developing relationships with prospective clients; gain greater recognition for my contributions

Results: By aligning priorities with desired results, Matthew increased his comfort level and skill in calling on prospective clients; expanded relationships with new and existing customers; and increased confidence through a more organized approach.

Through Janet's coaching, I have gained the ability to cut through the everyday distractions, reflect on my true needs and areas of development, and finally focus my activities where I received the greatest return.  She holds me accountable to myself and has brought structure to my self-development.  I have approached situations to further my career that I was not comfortable with in the past, which I credit to Janet's coaching.

Janet provides a coaching style that is flexible to the needs of her clients, yet structured in its approach.  She sets an overall program that stays focused on the end goal, but allows the sessions to address the hot-button issues of the day.  Janet provides supports through listening, recommends strategies, and monitors adherence to the client’s self-stated goals.  She's incredible with her insights and dedication.  Anyone who selects her services will be completely satisfied.
