When my CEO asked me to started working with Jeff Garrett at The Ascent Performance Group, I thought to myself, “I don’t need a coach! What is he going to do to help me?!?” The question I ask myself now is, “Where would I be if I had started working with Jeff sooner? Maybe I’d be a CEO by now!!” Jeff has a measured approach and an incredible ability to ask the right question to reveal the work I needed to focus on to improve my performance that I wasn’t going to realize by merely being self-reflective. He has been a steady influence to hold me accountable and work with me on areas of improvement to make me more efficient, more focused, more empathetic, and a better leader to my team. I feel more empowered and confident to consider taking the next step in my career when that CEO opportunity comes along.
