What we do

We partner with our clients to deliver:

Professional Coaching

Coaching empowers individuals to move past barriers, change perspectives and increase perception, create clarity and meaning, and achieve goals in any area of professional or personal life. We ask the right questions, use the appropriate tools, and provide the necessary structure and accountability to identify and achieve these goals. Coaching is done via phone with anyone, anywhere, or in person in the Ann Arbor area.

Organizational assessment
