“Vanessa has been my leadership coach for the last 8 months or so. I find the structure and her approach very helpful, insightful, and valuable. Vanessa has been working with me to identify areas I need to develop more as I am a leader of a large Health Care Team, and she provides context around sound approaches I may have previously not chosen to take based on my instinct. Now I am more confident. In our work together I’m introduced to new ideas and proven best practices which I get to apply as I deal with staff, clinical leaders, and stakeholders in this critical time of COVID getting better outcomes than before. I highly recommend having Vanessa as a professional coach.( 2021)”
