Testimonials

“I am happy to publicly thank Rob Greenly and endorse him very highly as an exceptional executive coach.  The new skills he taught me, and tools he provided, have enabled me to go through a pretty profound transformation in the last six months.  I am very grateful for this coaching as it has provided me with a new perspective on my role and an ability to better manage my often chaotic and intense work environment.  These skills frankly transcend the work environment and are relevant in a broader perspective which I also find helpful. ”

“During the six months of our working together, Rob has done an unbelievable job of getting to know me, my Firm and its corporate culture.  As a result, Rob has been able to provide keen insights into my day-to-day role and responsibilities within that culture and environment.  More importantly, Rob was able to observe how I interacted and reacted to that environment.  His observations and advice have been invaluable to me and have enabled me to be more effective in my leadership role, in my communications, and in my interactions with both leadership and staff.  I have found Rob’s observations and advice extremely insightful and precise.  His ability to cut through much of the superfluous corporate B.S. you often find in large, matrixed organizations, and address the fundamental issues and motivations that drive the business and individuals is spot-on.”

“Rob is an excellent coach, smart, experienced, interesting, perceptive, and persuasive. Using the very knowledge and techniques he is getting you to understand and learn in his own coaching. He can and does walk the talk. I can recommend highly and without reservation Rob Greenly for a broad array of coaching assignments.”

“Rob style is one of a trusted advisor: who is supportive in listening to whatever the issue may be at the time, but someone who also returns to the central points of the coaching activity.  He really helps in creating a structured program, while being very flexible in deviating from the plan in order to meet the needs of that week.  He is not shy to identify and raise the hard and central issues that need to be confronted.  Rob also has a deep chest of tools to draw from for all coaching situations.”

“I worked with Rob through some very difficult situations, including resigning from my job, and then reversing that decision.  Rob helped me understand some difficult internal and external relationships.  He performed interviews with internal and external customers, and peers and employees.  All feedback was delivered in a professional manner, and we had a lot of work to do.  With Rob’s help, I do feel I better understand my natural tendencies and I know when to suppress those and do what I am supposed to.  I feel I better communicate, certainly listen better and I know how to deliver feedback in a more positive way.  Rob’s style is casual and friendly, though very professional.  He is very insightful and helps a person see both sides of a situation.  That other perspective sometimes is not thought of alone and Rob was very helpful.  Without a doubt, I would highly recommend others to Rob.”

“Rob taught me to pro-actively plan for regular interactions with key individuals, to have 1-on-1 pre-meetings to influence outcome of important meetings, and to act on leadership ideas rather than just thinking about them.  Rob is easy to get to know, is a good listener– reacts with advice after hearing the whole story; honest–provides both flattering and non-flattering feedback; trustworthy–keeps conversations confidential; knowledgable–draws on years of experience with specific examples.  I definitely recommend Rob as an executive coach to others.”
