Neil has provided me with mentoring and coaching services since 2012. As a new president of a non-profit sports organization with 11,000 members, I found it was a challenge for me to provide leadership and direction to a well-established organization. Although we were fiscally strong, we faced personality conflicts, lack of efficiency and effectiveness, and no growth in our membership numbers. Over the past five years Neil’s experience, wisdom, and encouragement has helped me provide direction and growth to our organization.
Personally, I have grown in my leadership and ability to work with a diverse background of people. I have learned interpersonal relationship skills, problem solving techniques, strategic and tactical planning methodologies. The success of every organization is based on the contributions of the individuals. Neil has helped me to harness the abilities and passions of our members to bring successful results.
Neil has a unique ability to work one-on-one with leaders to help them find their leadership style and translate it into tangible results that impacted the morale and bottom line of the organization.
Neil believes that the greatest asset of any enterprise is the people and that as a team they can accomplish amazing results even beyond their own expectations.
When I look back on my current term as president I recognize the tremendous impact he has made in my personal and business life and the overall welfare of the organization. I would not have had the success as a leader as I have had without Neil’s coaching, support, and mentorship.
I highly recommend him to any leader who has challenges in the organization or who wants to their company to grow and go to the next level. He genuinely cares about people and is a man of integrity and character.
