Client Testimonials

"As my team grew dramatically in a short period of time (from 5 to 16 people in one year), Cristin was the most useful source of advice on how to deal with very delicate "people" situations that as you can expect will arise from such a rapid team expansion. She was able to illustrate theoretical frameworks and their practical implementation in the specific scenarios I brought to her. On multiple occasions, following her advice to the letter turned hopeless situations into successful ones for all the parties involved.

Cristin facilitated several offsite sessions with our team and applied creative approaches to our communication challenges. Her sessions provided us with practical models we could all identify with and she fostered an environment of openness, with a healthy dose of humor, to help us see our own barriers. She also worked with me for several months in between the sessions, providing coaching to ensure my conversations reinforced the learnings from the offsite. I strongly recommend Cristin as an executive coach and an engaging facilitator."

"I have been fortunate enough to know and work with Cristin at TheMarkets.com and Third Bridge, and am continually impressed by her business and emotional intelligence, results-oriented leadership and the immediate impact of her work on an organization.  She has an innate ability to arrive at the source of any problem, offer creative solutions, and influence a leadership team to action. Cristin is a trusted friend and colleague, and any organization would be lucky to have her on their team."

"Cristin’s approach helped me clarify my vision and develop my story of who I am as a leader and what I contribute as a member of the organization.  She guided me to see things from a different perspective, which gave me insight into how I network and interact with people.  As a result, my conversations became more powerful opportunities to showcase my strengths and position myself to do work that is the best fit for me.  She is a pleasure to work with and it is a privilege to endorse her."

"Cristin is a strategic partner who takes time to understand her client's need, develops insightful analysis of the business challenges and offers practical recommendations.  She meets the business where the business is, asks the right questions to get to the core of an issue, and leverages her broad and deep experience to solve the problem.  She represents a model for the way talent and organizational development should be done."

"Cristin improved our new employee experience by redesigning the sequence of when and how information is presented, which integrated people into the business and culture faster.  She also designed a leadership development offsite for a large group of client-facing revenue producers.  The modules bridged the gap from theory to practical application and were highly interactive, which kept the energy level high and the attention focused.  She is a knowledgeable and talented facilitator who was able to address our specific performance gaps and as a result was instrumental to our growth.  I highly recommend her to other executives who want help with talent and organizational development."
