"We manage a $250 million hedge fund.  Much of the time we were so busy "baking donuts" that we didn't take the time to think about where we were headed.  Carolina Business Coach was good at fleshing out what our individual roles were, and melding them into a collective vision.  The assessments are descriptive, but it's sitting down and going over them in much greater depth with my staff that helped them learn to become more effective with others.  It was definitely money well spent."

Narrative      

"I have owned a printing company for 20 years, and knew that we were stagnant in sales.  Being in a small business and wearing many hats often leaves me with little or no time to work on my business.  I realized that I needed a confidante and coach to help me address the critical, strategic issues that I was not able to get to alone.  Carolina Business Coach takes a deep personal interest in the success of their clients.  They will push you in the best ways to create a plan for change. They will go beyond the norm to offer their help once the plans and goals are created; they are very effective."

He has been excellent at facilitating the opportunity for me to be more introspective of my career goals and accomplishments. Harvey has been an excellent resource in developing my own leadership teams and ensuring that my team continues on its path to success. Often times, I would go into our sessions without a set agenda and wondering if I even had enough to talk about. Every single time, we pushed the time limits of our session because of Harvey's knack to draw questions and insights that you don't even know you have until you're in his presence. I would highly recommend him to help anyone develop their own leadership teams or personal career path and goals."

After our first meeting, Harvey set me on the right path to resolve the issues, and within two months I was able to straighten out the problem to the benefit of everyone and the survival of the company.

— Fred Bartlett, Division Manager

MTS Services, Charlotte, NC

"Engaging in coaching with Carolina Business Coach has been an immeasurably valuable experience.  As the director of a small non-profit agency, it is sometimes easy to put your head down and get buried in the work.  Working with Carolina Business Coach has helped me pull back and begin to more effectively maximize available resources by understanding the strengths and passions about those around me.  During our short time together, I have garnered an increased awareness of my own behaviors and style of communication.  This knowledge alone has helped me to  make necessary adjustments when needed thereby becoming a more effective and focused leader.  With extremely limited budgets, non-profits often make professional development the first area to "trim the fat".  However, making the decision to invest in this level of coaching and development will certainly yield a healthy return!"
