"Good coaching can make all the difference in your success." Rich Huttner
If you're budding entrepreneur, manager, subject matter expert, or C-Suite executive, having a knowledgeable sounding board, someone who asks the right questions, provides valuable information, and is genuinely interested in you can make all the difference in your accomplishments. A good coach will enable you to better solve problems, build your confidence, and be a lot happier at work. In short, you will achieve greater personal and professional success.

What I do and who I am
Coaching Philosophy
Coaching is all about helping people. Building upon a client's strengths and interests. I help my coachees formulate and execute their own action plans for personal and professional success.
I am a dedicated coach who truly listens to my clients, helping them find their own correct paths. I help my clients develop action plans that produce outstanding results and help them derive more satisfaction from their work.
My Experience
For the last 15 years I've taught leadership and management skills and have been an executive coach. I have helped over 200 managers.
I've also taught organizational behavior in Northeastern’s MBA program and am the author of The Universal Management Principle Workbook – How to Manage Your Team Better.
Lastly, I hold the ACC designation from the International Coaching Federation.
EXAMPLES
Carol was head of sales who was promoted to the VP Sales & Marketing slot. I helped her understand the broader scope of her new role. She wrote me:
“Things are going great so far. Bob (CEO) called me a Hero after our worldwide Sales & Service Meeting last week which I led. One of my colleagues nominated me for The President’s Award for the last fiscal. You sure were right on when you helped me see my new role was like becoming the General Manager of a sports club rather than its team manager. My new job includes supporting and developing the managers in many departments who now report to me. Our discussion about starting out with a listening tour was invaluable. I’ve had great success, and I love the new job!! Thanks again for all your coaching that helped me solidify the promotion.”

Tony was the architect of the AI software upon which his start-up tech company was based. A brilliant inventor, as CTO, he had to learn how to become a more patient team player and to handle less stressfully the give and take of becoming a member of the management team.
Partially as a result of the coaching, Tony quickly matured in his role. He successfully led his company’s pilot project, resulting in a $20 M hospital system infection-control contract. His company has now embarked on its planned steep growth trajectory.
