I was lucky enough to have Craig as a teacher, mentor, and coach as I made my way through Georgetown’s Leadership Coaching Certification Program. His brilliance is both academic and emotional and it reveals itself like an onion—slowly, one layer at a time, shrouded in humility and a deep capacity to listen. He coaches and teaches from a place of pure curiosity and lack of judgment, and has an astounding capacity to get to the heart of the matter with a single question. His mentorship helped me find my way back to center more than once as I embarked on a career change from law to coaching at age 50. If you have the opportunity to work with Craig, seize it.

Craig is an outstanding coach, someone who listens closely and then offers insightful and practical feedback. My sessions with him had immediate impact, because his advice was so relevant and actionable. I have had a number of executive coaches across my career. Craig is superior, because he helped me understand the challenges I faced and then worked with me to develop a plan to meet those challenges.

"Craig is incredibly enlightened, patient, and warm. During the time that I was fortunate enough to have Craig as my coach, he guided me through a fairly severe career crisis. He helped me to clarify my values and find fulfillment during the "passing through" phase, which ultimately led to greater serenity and a firmer sense of mastery when things started to turn around. I credit Craig with challenging me to reach within myself to focus on the positive and patiently avoid the patterns that have sabotaged me in the past."

"Working with Craig in a coaching relationship has been an incredible experience. Craig has an amazing capacity to be present in each moment with his clients. In our interactions, I found Craig consistently focused on what was important to me. He allowed me both the space and freedom necessary to explore my issues and interests on my own terms. He was willing to accept my approach to exploring my areas for growth, even when these differed from a traditional method. In all of our interactions, I felt supported and encouraged. This was true even when our sessions centered on uncomfortable topics or surfaced powerful emotions.
Craig's nature and disposition make him uniquely effective as a coach. His strong intellect is complemented by his calm presence. He is well versed in coaching practices and techniques, and makes these tools readily available to his clients. My life has been sigificantly impacted in a positive way as a result of my coaching experience with Craig. Having access to a trusted source and safe place for exploring my personal and professional growth is something that I have come to value and look forward to utilizing as I continue life's journey."

I had the chance to work with Craig for a 2 hour values strategy session in my company. It's genuinely amazing how a 2 hour conversation can help you reimagine a million doors you would be excited to walk through.

I took 6 months away from work to participate in the Leadership Coaching program at Rutgers University. Through this program, I have the privilege and good fortune of meeting Craig. I worked with him closely as he provided detailed and thoughtful feedback on my practice coaching sessions. I honestly found working with Craig to be the most valuable and practical part of the program - the insights on coaching and working with other people that I gained through his experience and dialog was such a powerful foundation for my own coaching practice. Invaluable.
