Read Nanci Raphael's article in Personal Excellence

Message from Sam Sklaroff

“As the CEO of an organization, large or small, it is lonely at the top. We spend time talking to our direct reports, our partners, our professional advisors and our peers. And although I enjoy speaking to them, they are not the people to be guiding me day in and day out with my own growth both professionally and personally. In the past I’ve been in various executive development and coaching programs. However, Nanci Raphael’s work with me was refreshingly different, and quite unique. Immediately I knew from the first time I sat down with her, that she would be the one coach who could take me and my team anywhere we wanted to go. And she did. Right away my every day, business as usual, thoughts and actions shifted to an extraordinary and exciting intensity. Amazing, unexpected results started showing up. Nanci creates a safe place to brag about your highest achievements and unload your worst defeats. You feel safe discussing and facing your biggest fears. In this secure environment, it was easy to clear the fog, make sound decisions and then act with strength and confidence. Nanci helped me hold myself accountable and follow through in the toughest of situations. After every meeting, I always gained clarity and found it much easier to be an effective leader. If you or your team are not getting the results that you want, then coaching with Nanci is a must!"
