MEET BRIAN
As a life & leadership coach, I am trained and certified with the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC) and am ELI-MP certified in the Energy Leadership Index™. iPEC created the Core Energy Coaching™ process which helps bring out the potential in clients. This powerful ‘shifting perceptions’ approach guides in the creation of new thought patterns, which lead to empowering emotions, which in turn inspire actions that lead the client to create the life they want to live.
​
My passion around coaching has everything to do with helping someone set a goal, make plans, tackle barriers and achieve success whether it be helping an emerging leader wanting to accelerate their career or an executive in transition, a team wanting to achieve high performance collaboration, an individual with a challenge or a goal or an LGBTQ+ person navigating their journey.
I am a positive, energetic and relationship driven person. My core values are Integrity, Growth/Learning and Recognition. My education, professional experience, credentials and all my life lessons qualify me to be the best I can possibly be for you.
"Work takes on new meaning when you feel you are pointed in the right direction. Otherwise, it's just a job, and life is too short for that."

I take a holistic approach to coaching, using the Energy LeadershipTM techniques to shift your attitude and perception so you can live the life you want. Together we help you gain clarity around exactly what you want, what you have to do to get what you want, to find the motivation you need, remove barriers and celebrate your successes.

Leadership Acceleration Coaching
​
Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations. With my coaching sessions, you’ll learn about acceptance and how to exert your power of choice over whatever life may throw at you.
​
Team Coaching
​
Team coaching helps teams reach their goals, while creating a sustainable environment that cultivates long-term excellence and success. Using coaching paired with a process called ‘High Performance Collaboration’ we start by setting the context for the team (the ‘why’) followed by establishing a clear sense of purpose and agreeing on its intent and the shared work (the ‘what’) - this brings focus and creates an environment to build trust and collaboration (the ‘how’). Often paired with coaching for the leader, teams can grow and thrive.
CONSULTING SERVICES
As an HR Change Agent, People Developer and Consultant, I leverage the foundation I built over 25 years in progressive roles with world class organizations. This includes success in leading company-wide and targeted HR initiatives at enterprises including Kohler Co., Mars Inc., Johnson & Johnson and Novartis. My passion for creating and implementing processes/systems to enhance succession planning, talent management, organizational development, learning, executive and leadership development, employee engagement and diversity & inclusion are part of who I am. I skillfully design and facilitate meetings and energetically deliver training. I inspire global teams and build and manage relationships and networks to help others thrive.

What’s the Energy Leadership Index Assessment [ELI]?You may have heard of Myers-Briggs or other personality tests. They are valuable, because they give you insight on who you are. The Energy Leadership Index (ELI) Assessment is a bit different - it tells you how you are. This assessment reveals your perceptions and attitudes in life and the world around you. Your perception creates your reality. By shifting your perception, you can create the reality you want to see. Also included is a debrief with a certified ELI Master Practitioner and Certified Professional Coach, which will guide you in understanding your unique energy profile and give you first steps to create your new reality.
