WHO WE ACCELERATE: TESTIMONIALS

When I asked Beth to assist my team, we had taken the Myers Briggs assessments and yet I hadn’t observed much change amongst team members. Ineffective communications persisted within the office. Beth’s ability to distill the differences of people’s preferences and their potential implications for interpersonal communications provided a catalyst for change moving forward.

I would recommend that if you have had your team take the Myers Briggs but you haven’t had a professional like Beth create a full awareness of the differences, you might be missing out on an opportunity to take full advantage of the assessment and increase your team’s effectiveness.
Raymond Tsao, CEO, Covendis

Beth Miller was charged with developing two of our high level executives. Over the course of six months, her executive coaching improved the leadership and managerial skills of the executives she worked with.

These positive changes were witnessed by all members of the executive team and have helped the entire team to work collectively and more productively. I was very pleased with the results of Beth’s work and would recommend her to other organizations needing one on one executive coaching.
-Rankin Hobbs, CEO, KaMin LLC

We engaged Beth during a time that our board of directors believed the leadership team was struggling with its communications and decision making process.

Beth interviewed each leadership team member as well as observed management meetings. Her observations provided a better understanding to the board of the communication and personality dynamics taking place on the leadership team. This led to a team building session using Myers Briggs as the backbone to the exercises with both the board and leadership team.

Beth’s work with the team built better communications amongst the leadership and more confidence from board members.

Beth was introduced to our company during a time of significant change and growth. Initially, we asked Beth to assist in the leadership development of our middle management team as we knew the effectiveness of this group was critical to the future success of our company.

During this time, our efforts were also focused on becoming an employer of choice within the marketplace in order to attract and retain top talent as we grew. As a trusted advisor to the executive team, Beth worked in conjunction with operations and human resources to identify areas of needed development for specific managers and she successfully facilitated several high-level strategic planning sessions. Additionally, she worked effectively to develop enhanced team communications using team building techniques and she was instrumental in significantly raising our Best Places to Work scores.

During her engagement with us, she also advised us on identifying our core skill sets and integrating them into a new performance management system. I am certain we will retain Beth for future projects.

“I have known Beth for a number of years, the last year of which I’ve been a beneficiary of monthly one-on-one coaching sessions. Beth quickly came to understand both my businesses as well as my personality. She expertly weaves questions and recommendations during our sessions to help me further my strengths and address my weaknesses. I have thoroughly enjoyed and learned from her and, best of all, seen my productivity and management capability increase, and my stress level decrease (as I get better and better at focusing). I would highly recommend Beth to anyone considering (or not considering) mentoring relationships, as we can be our own worse enemies.”
-Robert Frohwein, CEO. LAVA Group, Inc

“Beth is not afraid to ask the tough questions and hold me accountable to my goals and results. She asks probing questions that allow me to look into our company from angles that would otherwise go unvisited. There is no doubt that having Beth as a coach and a mentor have improved my leadership skills and our company’s performance.”
-Scott Marshall, Principal and Vice President of Sales, CWC

“Having a coach like Beth has been like having an alter ego in our meetings questioning my positions, my assumptions, my accountability in running my business has enabled me to think around my decisions giving more focus, direction and drive to lead the company to greater successes.”
-John Stangel, President and Owner, Container-It

“Beth helps me focus on my business and personal goals that tend to get pushed aside while attending to the daily demands of owning your own business. She is a great listener and contributes with solutions and suggestions in a very diplomatic yet direct way. As your coach, you can confide in her knowing that nothing will leave the room.”
-Dirk de Vuyst, President and Owner, International Marble

“Over the past 20 years in business, I have had the opportunity to utilize the services of executive coaches for my staff as well as for myself. Approximately two years ago, I was introduced to Beth Miller and what a difference she made in my professional career. Beth creates a working relationship with her clients that is extremely professional but also one that has a personal touch. Beth cares about the well being of her clients and their families. Her executive coaching style is one that creates an open and honest interaction with her clients and she will ask the tough questions about you and your business. She will push you to excel and move you well beyond anything close to mediocre performance. Beth is a successful business owner herself so she knows what it takes to be the best.”
