Testimonials

“…Ed’s experience and conceptual knowledge of leadership principles are superlative…”

I recently received leadership feedback from my boss, peers, and direct reports on how they experience me in the workplace. Through Ed’s guidance and experience with the assessment tool, I was able to digest this information and create an action plan to help me grow my effectiveness as a leader. This experience is helping me evolve my leadership style along in ways that help me, my team, and my organization. Ed’s experience and conceptual knowledge of leadership principles are superlative, and I learn something new every time we meet.

“…The experience was incredibly transformative for me…”

I had the privilege and opportunity to work with Ed over the last year as he served as my coach as part of a leadership development program. Ed consistently challenged me to be confident, trust myself and to believe that I could make important formative changes that would benefit all I serve. Ed was patient, supportive and always encouraged me to strive to make a difference in my work. He helped me discern the importance of balance in my work and assisted me in becoming more aware of how vulnerability and gratitude play a critical role in leadership. The experience was incredibly transformative for me, personally, spiritually and professionally! I’m grateful for Ed’s care, wisdom and constant support throughout the journey this past. Thank you Ed!

“…Ed was diligent in providing insightful and direct observations…”

I had the privilege to work with Ed Evarts over the course of several months. During that time, Ed helped me work through some strategic decisions regarding my business. When I first came to Ed, I was seeking the voice of a seasoned coach, someone that could highlight key factors driving important decisions. To that end, Ed quickly guided me through some clear exercises which helped me identify salient issues, while cancelling out the noise.

“…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 :).
