Move more easily through life

I first met Dr. Smith as a student in a leadership course he facilitated during which he blew me away with his facilitation style and his command of the content of the workshop.

Specifically he helped me better understand how I am relating to others and where my core strengths lie as well as behaviors I needed to develop in order to create more mutually satisfying interactions with others. Wanting to know more I decided to hire him as a personal and professional coach and I learned a lot about myself and what I was really doing in my job and personally.

As a result, I came to better understand my real value proposition in a relatively short period of time and made an important career transition to a much better job. He has a knack for revealing my thought process and identifying my own limiting beliefs and now I am moving forward in both my career and my personal life with greater clarity.

To this day, Dr. Smith is a confidant for myself. Dr. Smith has many interests that I am sure he knows how to relate to your current situation and / or leadership & personal growth.

I began working with Dr. Bill Smith more than a decade ago, when he helped my executive team
interpret a personality test. Since then, he has helped me in many professional areas, from
negotiation training for staff to coaching me on a specific real estate negotiation. Currently Dr.
Smith is working with a team of young leaders within our company on a 52-week mentoring
program which has taught them how to think analytically, develop new skills for collaboration
and project management, while refining our compensation plan and creating developmental plans
in preparation for generational transition of leadership.

Bill’s warm personality and rocksteady readiness to listen to any problem, issue, or flaw, without
judgement but rather understanding and insight…have made him a not only a valuable business
resource, but a most trusted personal counselor and life coach. After having worked with Bill on
a variety of issues like parenting, dealing with stress & anxiety, and problems sleeping; I have
referred many friends. They too have often found that Dr. Smith has just the right therapy, or
words of advice for almost any situation.

Over these many years Dr. Smith has time and time again armed me with the insight, knowledge,
and skills needed to deal with the world of issues and worries that face us all. In my opinion you
will be hard pressed to find a more versatile consultant, or gentleman of higher character.

Dear Dr. Bill. I would like to thank you for your help with issues arising in our small family business. I found that my youngest son was not happy with communication and some ways that I manage and run our business. After meeting with you (as a group, the whole crew) I found that I was not as good as I thought at communication and inclusion of all employees involved. I think this was even more important in our case, because we are a family business (father and sons).

Your input we found invaluable. Simple, practical, considerate and honest without compromise. After implementing some of your techniques such as weekly meetings, commitment and affirmation statements, and letting my sons know much more frequently how important they are to our success, we found that things began to
change in a big way.

Communication has improved, attitudes warmed, arguing has nearly stopped, work is something we enjoy much more together, even the hard days. On a personal note, your council in my personal life has been both helpful
and inspiring.
