What Other Washington State Leaders are Saying

“The reflection with my coach, to be able to process what my desired outcomes were in my leadership, then walk through details to help me was incredibly powerful. I am recommending this process to all my colleagues. It's really one of the most powerful professional development experiences I've had in my 20+ years career.”  – Erin Morin, Principal, Lake Chelan

“Coaching helped me re-define my role as a superintendent to suit my strengths. A change in mindset has paid big dividends.” – Tim Winters, Superintendent, South Kitsap School District

“This was the first time I participated in any type of executive coaching. Honestly, I experienced some deep reflection and emotions about my leadership and how I arrived to the position that I'm at today. I feel very fortunate to have had an incredible coach who was insightful, personable, and who throughout our sessions gave me some insights about becoming the very best ‘Mike’.” - Mike A. Villarreal, Superintendent, Hoquiam School District
