WHAT CLIENTS SAY "James, I really appreciate the work we've done together. You brought some good questions and a workable process that had a real impact. Thanks for taking the time to look at my swing, as they say." Scott McNealy, CEO, Sun Microsystems "I cannot imagine finding a company more adept at building coaching excellence than Integral Leadership (which we knew then as New Ventures West). As a result of their classes, hundreds of Pacific Bell managers incorporated coaching skills and mindset into their everyday work. The results were powerful and enduring." Ken Murphy, Former Comptroller, Pacific Bell "I worked with James Flaherty as my Executive Coach for two years. During this time, James helped me become more effective in my daily interaction with people personally and professionally. James' uncanny skill at observing interaction, listening, and constructively responding has made this process not only a productive learning experience but also a very pleasant opportunity. James' coaching has been a most worthwhile and life changing experience for me, and I recommend him without reservation." Patrick MacLeamy, COO (now CEO), HOK, a global architectural firm whose award-winning designs include Camden Yards, Hong Kong Stadium, and Coors Field "My work with James has had a significant impact on me both personally as well as professionally. He has helped to fundamentally shift my ability to integrate and address complex business and personal ecosystems in a way that leaves me more empowered and more capable of reproducing the outcomes I am seeking. In terms of leadership, my work with James has increased my capacity to listen, to be present, as well as to more effectively lead from my heart. He has also helped me to live a life that is more on purpose and consistent with my personal values and life priorities." Michele Goins, Vice President and Chief Information Officer, Imaging and Printing Group, Hewlett-Packard, named one of the top 50 women in business by Hispanic Business "The knowledge and expertise of James Flaherty never ceases to amaze me. With his help, I have found my authentic voice and developed the courage to let it be heard. While working with him I have been given additional responsibilities that will directly impact the culture of the new HP." Emily Duncan, Vice President, Culture & Diversity, Hewlett-Packard "Working with James I have learned to ground myself. This allows me to get where I want to go with a lot less wear and tear on myself and others. Life opens up. And I have stopped spending time on things that don't go to the core of what I am here for. This works professionally, and it works at home. I just came from a meeting where I was trying to get people to hear one another, rather than argue. We needed to reach an agreement and to do so quickly. It was really amazing to see the impact of my approach. My 'groundedness' allowed others in the room to stay grounded. How do I tie all of this to James? I nurtured this practice by hanging out with him." Tim Tosta, Shareholder, Steefel, Levitt & Weiss |
