“Engaging in coaching with Institute Success™ has been an immeasurably valuable experience. As the director of a small non-profit agency, it is sometimes easy to put your head down and get buried in the work. Working with my coach has helped me pull back and begin to more effectively maximize resources by understanding the strengths and passions about those around me. During our short time together, I have garnered an increased awareness of my own behaviors and communication styles by leveraging the information provided in my ADVanced Insight Assessment combined with my coach’s enlightening debrief. This knowledge has helped me to make necessary adjustments and become a more effective and focused leader. With an extremely limited budget, a non-profit often makes professional development the first area to “trim the fat”. However, making the decision to invest in this level of coaching and professional development will certainly yield a healthy return!”

“As the executive recruiter for a financial services company, I no longer hire without utilizing the ADVanced Insight Assessments offered by Institute Success™. The value of understanding the behavioral preferences and motivators of a candidate helps us to make better hiring decisions. Once hired, the ADVanced Insight Assessment is an indispensable resource for the sales manager to use for mentoring a new employee to achieve more success more quickly.”

“Like most people who have worked for large corporations, I’ve gone through my share of personality testing, team building exercises, and training. Without a doubt, the most useful and insightful sessions I’ve had are the ones with, my Executive Coach, Harvey Smith. Harvey’s interpretation of my ADVanced Insights Assessment helped me see even more in the data, which has helped me improve my day-to-day dealings with my boss, coworkers, and direct reports. In many cases, it lessened the stress of interactions with some of my coworkers. I also think coaching has made me a better manager of others.”
