Testimonials

“…bottom line: work with Ed if you have a chance!…”

I have had the pleasure of having Ed as my Executive Coach for 12 months. To say that Ed was great is an understatement. He was able to help me work through a few issues and has helped me become much more effective leader. This was especially true in encouraging me to have, what I thought would be, difficult conversations. Ed’s approach of facilitating my thought process rather than directly giving advice, interspersed with helpful suggestions along the way was the winning combination. If you have a chance, you should work with Ed!

…Ed’s perceptive and razor sharp insights….

I have worked with Ed Evarts over the last year; honing my leadership skills, creating a vision for my team and identifying specific goals that will contribute to the success of Boston College. This year has been filled with personal growth and awareness which would not have been achieved without Ed’s perceptive and razor sharp insights. I have benefited by having his expertise to keep me accountable in a warm and encouraging manner. These positive and active changes were made gradually and when reflecting on the year, I can see how much my leadership style, communication and decision making has benefited and would highly recommend Ed!

…a revelation that invigorated my leadership journey…

Embarking on a journey with Ed as my leadership coach has been transformative. His expertise in pinpointing my strengths and growth areas propelled me to new heights in my career. Despite being introspective by nature and a leader for a long time, the depth of insight I gained was unexpected and truly rewarding. Ed’s skillful guidance not only honed my focus on key improvement areas but also made the process engaging and inspiring. His mentorship was not just a learning experience—it was a revelation that invigorated my leadership journey. Now I need to do the work :).
