I had the opportunity to work with Denice at a pivotal moment in my career and leadership journey, and it was an incredible experience. Denice approaches coaching with a client-centered approach, helping leaders identify and achieve personal goals and work on areas of opportunity along the way. I felt comfortable bringing my authentic self as a disabled queer person into our coaching spaces, and I admired the way Denice created a safe environment for me to discuss challenges I was facing in my work to advance access, equity, and inclusion. With changes in my career path, Denice continues to be a wonderful resource and thought partner. She brings incredible knowledge and experience that can benefit organizations and leaders seeking to accelerate equity and shape workplace cultures grounded in ongoing growth and learning.

Each meeting with Denice is impactful. She assesses my needs and provides clear, upfront, guided communication that defines the goal of the meeting with ease. I am continually impressed by her ability to guide me through my thought process resulting in clarity. The intriguing questions she asks expands my understanding and actions. I learn something new and meaningful from each meeting.

Working with Denice has increased my ability as a leader to step-up, pivot, and explore new opportunities. Thanks to working with Denice, I was able to release mindset blocks preventing me from acting. On days when I thought I was not coachable, after meeting with her, I learned how powerful our minds are as she coached me into an active mode. It was one of the most influential experiences. Through her actions and examples, I am a more conscious, active listener.

When I met Denice, I was an extremely competitive person and it showed in my leadership style. She helped me understand how that style does not necessarily work for everyone and helped me gain skills to be a servant leader. Denice was never judgmental; she always had my best interests in mind. She changed the way I listen, the way I share, and the way I connect with others in social and work environments. If you are a leader who wants to advance in your career, wants to be a more effective communicator, or has a position (such as a CEO) with limited resources to turn to, call Denice today. Why wait?
