Hi, I'm Rich Huttner. I work with key executives and business owners to help them solve tough problems and fully realize growth opportunities.
If you're a key executive or CEO, having a knowledgeable sounding board, someone you respect and trust, can make all the difference in your success. A good coach will enable you to better solve problems, come up with new ideas, and meet growth targets.
In short, Senior leaders like and trust me to help them become more successful.
My qualifications: Head of high-performing businesses at American Express and Time Warner and past owner/CEO of several successful small companies. I’m also a graduate of Yale and the Stanford Business School and a Certified Master Coach.
What I do and who I am
Coaching
Coaching is all about helping people. Building upon a client's strengths, interests, and abilities, I help them formulate and execute their own action plan for personal and professional success.
I work by building trust with my clients, maintaining strict confidentiality, and asking knowledgeable questions. I help them develop action plans that work, enabling them to become even more productive and successful leaders. They derive more satisfaction from the jobs, too.
How leaders benefit from my coaching
-
They have a dedicated coach who truly listens to them,
-
Who asks thoughtful questions that help them find their own correct path.
My Background
I am a graduate of the Center for Coaching Certification's Certified Professional Coach and Certified Master Coach programs and a member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF).
For the last 12 years, I've also been a successful leadership and management skills trainer. Over 200 companies sent their senior leaders to my Crestcom leadership workshops.
I’ve had a successful prior career as an VC-backed CEO and entrepreneur..
Lastly, I've taught organizational behavior in Northeastern’s MBA program and am the author of The Universal Management Principle Workbook – How to Manage Your Team Better. My MBA is from Stanford Graduate School of Business.
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. Your advice 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 inventor of a hospital infection-control monitoring device and 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 senior 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.
