Dr. Michael CrystalCoaching

  • The Director, Website Development, for a global information services company. Brought in from the outside, her assimilation and acclimation were difficult and slow, resulting in an initiative being well behind schedule. By collecting relevant information quickly, and utilizing it appropriately in a focused developmental effort, her leadership was quickly established and the project was ultimately delivered on time with her contribution widely recognized.

  • The Senior Vice President for Financial Planning for a major division of a financial services company. Technically brilliant, with an apparent low tolerance for others perceived to be less able to perform, she was becoming ineffective due to loss of staff and constant conflicts with others. A concerted effort, including extensive practice sessions, transformed her communication and interaction focus from inward to outward, ultimately resulting in her promotion to Senior Vice President and Comptroller for the corporation.

  • The Vice President of Marketing for a major pharmaceutical company whose 360° review clearly evidenced the need for dramatic improvement in his self-management and leadership skills. Working directly with him, and through his peers and manager, his "skill and will" have measurably increased.

  • The President of the major revenue producing group in a fast-growing marketing communications firm whose extraordinary ability and willingness was outpacing her team's ability to keep up. Using both transformational and transactional coaching, we have been able to align her leadership with the team's needs, resulting in higher performance enhanced by increasing fulfillment.
