Finding Your Zenith

I met Curt Canada just when I needed a voice of reason in my life.  For the past 20 years, I’d been focused on my career, had achieved success and traveled the world, but was beginning to feel like something was still missing.

As a Leadership and Executive Coach, Curt is a powerful listener; empathetic and perceptive.  He helped me get right to the heart of the issue without ever telling me what to do.  Curt understands the challenges facing women in the corporate and global environment and that enabled candid and collaborative discussions about my situation.  He also introduced me to leadership and personal assessment tools that gave me a new perspective.

Now, I’ve recognized when and how I prioritize work to the detriment of other important areas of my life and I’m moving forward with confidence and the right tools to make positive changes.

Friends and family have noticed a change in me and so have I.  Thanks to Curt, I’m looking forward to a big new adventure that includes so much more than just the next step on the corporate ladder.

 "My coaching experience with Mr. Canada helped me to identify and define my personal and career goals and action plans. Our sessions were positive, productive, and professional. Mr. Canada has excellent listening skills and was able discern when an issue needed to be addressed. With probing and creative questioning, he challenged me to get to the core of challenges that  limited  my possibilities and explore alternate views than the normal. The assessments administered were also helpful in my personal and career growth. He is personable and geniunely cares for his clients which made my first coaching experience a pleasant one." " One of my aha moments I take away from coaching is that I have the control and confidence to define how I want my life to be and ask for what I want because no one will know if I don't articulate it."  Coaching has helped me define my goals and direction after my divorce in terms of focusing on being a better person and pursuing things and activities that reflect my true personality and desires."

"The FIRO-B Interpersonal Relations Orientation Assessment is a valuable self -assessment document and has helped me fine tune my job search. Anyone looking for metrics beyond simple personality traits and characteristic assessments will appreciate the information provided with this instrument. It has been an invaluable tool in my job search process and serves as a sticking point reminding me of my tendencies, likes, and dislikes helping me to discern environments that will contribute to my success."

 “Curt listens with his heart. His positive collaborative focus and belief in my potential and growth helped me to re- connect with goals, desires, think outside the box and be comfortable in doing so.” I knew nothing about a Life Coach until now! It was an added plus to have a Christian  Life Coach!

 "Exceptionally intuitive about people and I believe that counseling is the work that Curt was born to do. There is no question that all my coaching moments and discussions with him were approached in a way that was unique to my situation and not boilerplate. He simply likes people and is energized by helping others make since of differences.
