Testimonials and Coaching Highlights

When coaching leaders, Tom tends to be practical, results-oriented, adaptive and fun—even when confronting difficult circumstances. While his foundation for results is built upon research and data, Tom’s approach is personal and often playful.

As an executive coach, Tom has been called upon by the senior-most leaders in an organization to help re-establish their mission, vision, values and operating norms to re-energize their productivity and results. Efforts like these often require extensive interviews, surveys, senior staff meeting facilitation, and always speaking truth to power.

Before becoming a coach, Tom worked in the public, private and nonprofit sectors. After securing $500,000 in seed funding, Tom spent 16 years building programs at the Partnership for Public Service that generate $10 million annually. His previous experience also includes work at Andersen Consulting, the Government Accountability Office, the U.S. Senate and the White House.
