 Since beginning the sessions with Nancy, I’ve experienced a change in how I approach situations. Being able to engage with Nancy as situations arise has really helped develop skills in real time. Nancy provides great insight and perspective to reframe mindsets- which has had a significant impact on how I engagein certain interactions.

 Nancy has helped me greatly improve my emotional intelligence, allowing me to communicate and influence at a much higher level. My interactions with colleagues and partners are much more results-oriented and efficient. This in turn has raised my confidence level, so I gain trust and communicate much more persuasively. I highly recommend Nancy as her coaching has made a big difference for me.

 Through the sessions I have been able to make good progress… especially related to dealing with conflicts and difficult personalities as well as executive presence…. I faced some people related challenges at work, and Nancy was very helpful to think-through and brainstorm on potential options to deal with challenge at hand. Of many of Nancy’s traits, one specific one I want to call out is her ability to ask thought provoking questions with certain level of candor that will push the individuals to deeply reflect and identify the crux of the issues they are grappling with. My advice to anyone wanting to up-level their leadership toolbox and to work on your development areas in a risk free environment, engaging with Seed Leadership / Nancy is a great investment in yourself that will pay great dividends for you in your career journey.

Nancy helped me elevate my leadership skills in a time of high growth and constant change. During the program, I saw improvement in my ability to communicate an inspiring vision, to coach my team, and to build stronger relationships. I recommend Nancy for anyone looking to take their leadership skills to the next level.

Working with Nancy has opened my perspective on key aspects of leadership such as the difference between feedback and coaching, seizing the momentum of the moment, and how to navigate intensely candid conversations. From our time working together, I've leveraged her recommended strategies in conversations with my direct reports, manager, and even skip-level leadership. The advice I would give to anyone who may be considering working with Nancy is 'do not hesitate'. Her expertise, both broad and deep, will challenge you to evaluate and navigate certain situations differently (for the better)… it’s never too early (or too late) to begin refining your leadership skills and I am confident Nancy can help you do so, just as she did for me.

Nancy, thank you so much for engaging me in your coaching work. I set out to look at the power of diversity from an input perspective vs. an outcome. Our work in being intentional about feedback on my personal development from diverse sources has genuinely changed my leadership. I recommend your services to anyone wanting to effect change and committed to making a more significant impact.

I'm so grateful to have had an opportunity to work with Nancy when I was at an important crossroad in life a few months ago. I was juggling through many professional and personal options, and was in dire need for more clarity in life and effective decision making… Nancy is super personable and our initial conversation just clicked… I learned to develop new perspectives when approaching ambiguous problems and started to discover a pattern of how I make decisions myself. If anything, awareness is the first step to understanding what needs to be changed for the better. This is just one example of many critical lessons I took away from working with Nancy! More importantly, this marks the beginning for an accelerated journey of my continuous personal growth thanks to her coaching.

Nancy is very dedicated, gives our conversations enough time to dig into, follows up, and caters her approach to my needs. The assigned activities pack a punch! They made me uncover what works for me and what doesn’t. It allowed me to experiment, make little tweaks that I may have been too scared to try on my own… learning about my leadership strengths and weaknesses in this program has been a foundational piece that will continue to yield benefits long after the program ends.

I'm so thankful to have an opportunity to work with Nancy on her 90 day leadership program... Over these 90 days, I learned to take advantage of my strengths and work on the opportunities identified. There was significant improvement in my communication and decision making. This program boosted my confidence allowing me to take on greater responsibilities. Even though there is structure to this course, at the end of the day it depends on how you want to drive it to help you get better. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone looking for professional growth.

I am so thankful for the leadership coaching that I received from Nancy during a transitional time in my career. Nancy helped me reflect on my experiences, interests, and strengths and figure out a path with concrete steps that made sense and truly fit.  She is a gifted coach that combines years of practical experience and knowledge with thoughtfulness and humour that made the whole process enjoyable; I looked forward to each session!

I have had the privilege of having Nancy as a mentor. Nancy was always available for guidance and support, during our scheduled sessions but also on ad hoc basis as well. When speaking with Nancy you have her full attention and she listens to understand not to interject (as is human nature). Nancy applies this focus and dedication to her day to day activities and the clients she serves. Though pulled in various directions, she has the ability to focus on a task at hand ensuring she provides the best experience for her clients.

There are 3 words that immediately come to my mind that would best describe her leadership style: mature, purposeful, principled. As a woman of faith, Nancy walks the talk on integrity, honesty and equality. She holds herself accountable to outcomes and establishes processes and exercises discipline in her workflow habits.  She has laser focus on the delivery of exceptional service to all stakeholders.

In my years working with Nancy, she coached and supported leaders across the organization. Nancy helps individuals identify their strengths and capabilities and ignites their true potential, fueling success through others. Over the years, I received countless messages from leaders she worked with commenting on how working with and learning from Nancy had transformative results in terms of their impact and on the success of those they lead. They referenced her ability to deeply understand what mattered most to individual leaders to help them connect in with their truest selves in order to lead powerfully.
