WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Mish was my direct manager at Elan, and has been providing insightful career advice ever since. Mish is a creative, strategic thinker who is able to both design and execute relevant talent strategy during times of significant organizational change. Mish is very good at pivoting between the big picture and the details, thus enabling her to cut to the chase and drive for results that business leaders care about most. Personally, Mish has helped me to explore possibilities, think more clearly about what I wanted in my own career and helped move obstacles out of the way. Developing people is truly her calling, and I was one of the lucky ones who was fortunate enough to cross her path.
Kate, President - HR Consulting for biopharmaceutical & technology
Mish was the right coach at the right time. I was in the midst of a job transition - and Mish helped me clearly articulate what I wanted and the value that I bring. She was my sounding board and advisor throughout the job search, negotiations, and offboarding/onboarding process. I really appreciated her thoughtful questions, insights based on her experience, and her endless encouragement and support. I now have my dream job in a new company and industry. I couldn’t recommend Mish more highly for anyone needing career guidance and advice no matter where you are in your career.
Dasle, senior manager - internal communications & employee engagement
Initially, I worked with Mish as a career coach. I was wanting to transform my career, but I was not clear on how to move forward. Mish helped me to identify where I wanted to go and helped me to do so. Her coaching provided me with the platform to become a better leader and step-up to the next phase of my career. As she did so, she has been my business coach and my communications coach too.
Mish is strategic, very grounded and provides true depth of experience. She helped me get to the crux of the issue and build up from there.
It's been uncomfortable, difficult at times, and I have had to face my "inner critic". But I know I'm in good hands: Mish balances my nerves with empathy and pragmatism. She brings executive experience and insight, which guide me to own my transformation and to move forward with strategic business initiatives critical to that transformation.
Sally - global talent programmes
As a midcareer millennial, I found myself searching for my “next chapter”. What was I going to do with my career that would allow me to have an impact on the world and still grow professionally? I knew I needed a change but felt directionless. More accurately, I found myself paralyzed by choices. Working with Mish was a turning point for me in so many ways.
First, I felt that Mish truly met me where I was in this career-transition process. My process was not linear. (I’d often think it was downright chaotic). Mish was there every step of the way to talk through my thoughts, help me plan, adjust course, plan again, and take the small steps to lead me to my big goal.
Second, Mish's exhaustive experience in different industries and with career development provided the perspective and expertise I needed to recognize my own career path. She was able to offer new ideas and ask thought-provoking questions that led me to conclusions I would not have reached otherwise.
Lastly, Mish is just genuinely the most wonderful listener. Coaching seems to be second nature to her. Mish's approach was warm and encouraging, while still being 100% real. Knowing that Mish was there to build me up — but would never sugarcoat my areas of development — made my coaching experience both effective and authentic.
I cannot speak highly enough of Mish's services for anyone experiencing a transition in their career or life!
