Peter Keane
President, CEO
Keane Capital Management
We manage a $160 million hedge fund. Harvey was very helpful during what has externally been one of the most difficult financial environments. A lot of the time we were so busy ‘baking donuts’ that we didn’t take the time to think about where we were headed. Working with Harvey and doing the assessments was a revelation for my employees. Harvey is very effective at working with a whole range of personalities and being able to create and environment where people feel safe and comfortable. I was able to go from the feeling that something wasn’t right to putting people in the right places.
The way we work with Carolina Business Coach is ongoing; it was very important to me that this was not yet another exercise that everybody found stimulating yet was ultimately not practical. Through Harvey’s process of repetition we are forced to learn and relearn, not sink back into our old habits and attitudes.Dr. Michael Smith, ND

“After working with Harvey our business grew by 450% in one year. Before working with Carolina Business Coach, I was looking for people to fill the practice and didn’t have a good sense of: Are these good people for us or not? Through coaching, we were able to formulate a team of office staff and practitioners that are aligned with our goals.”Tim Flanagan

“Harvey Smith embodies all the things you want in a business coach – an intent listener, a compassionate nurturer, a focused motivator. His background as both a schoolteacher and successful businessman gives him a perspective rare among his counterparts. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed our relationship.”

"Like most people who've worked for big corporations, I've gone through my share of personality testing, team building exercises and training. Without a doubt, the most useful and insightful sessions I've had are the ones with Harvey Smith. Harvey's interpretation helped me see even more in the data, and has really helped me improve my day-to-day dealings with my boss, my coworkers and my direct reports. In many cases, it lessened the stress of interaction with some of my coworkers. I also think it's made me a better manager for those who report to me"
