Ours is an organization that utilizes professional coaches for two primary purposes—occasionally to coach an individual who, while well-led, struggles to achieve potential, but more often to coach exceptional leaders to yet higher levels of performance.   Marcia excels in both circumstances.  She easily garners trust of our colleagues, listens exceptionally well, has an uncanny ability to accurately read people and their circumstances, and in short order develops effective courses of action that uniquely meet the needs of our colleagues.  Having personally been coached throughout my career, I consider Marcia among the best professional coaches I’ve encountered. – Tony C. Budet, President/CEO, University Federal Credit Union, Austin, Texas

Marcia’s wisdom and experience with coaching senior level executives has been invaluable to me!  I was tasked to implement change management to a team of highly skilled professionals that work in a very traditional culture. Marcia’s expertise was instrumental in helping me to successfully influence the team to embrace the changes! – Veronica Hinojosa Segura, Assoc. Vice Chancellor and Controller, The University of Texas System

Marcia has a wonderful combination of experience, warmth, and intelligence that immediately made me feel comfortable and confident with  her advice. She was an invaluable resource for me as I was looking for opportunities to grow as a leader. She helped me feel prepared to pursue – and attain – the position of my dreams. – Robin Gose, Ed. D., President and CEO, the Wolf Museum of Exploration + Innovation

“Marcia is outstanding! I worked with her to hone and improve my leadership skills, and she helped me feel both more focused and confident.

“I had the great fortune of working for and with Marcia for several years. I consider her one of the greatest influences in my professional career. She has been a strong mentor in my journey to my current role as Senior Vice President of Human Resources at a Healthcare System in Northeast Texas. One of Marcia’s greatest strengths is that of a strategic thinker. I was consistently impressed not only by her ability to think, act and lead on an operational level but also her skill in guiding the executive leadership in strategic Human Resources initiatives. She is a skilled and strong Human Resources Professional.” ~ Tom Wilken MS, SPHR, previously Senior Vice President/Chief Human Resources Officer at Trinity Mother Frances Hospitals and Clinics, now Senior Vice President and COO, Your HR Partner

“As my coach, Marcia has helped me better understand myself and refine my career goals. She really takes the time to understand the complexities of work relationships and organizational issues. Without judgment, and with much humor and kindness, she has helped me navigate “next steps” to become a better leader, team member and person. She started as my coach but became my “life saver” and someone I consider a friend.” – Lisa Kay Pfannenstiel, previously Director of Special Events at St. David’s Episcopal Church, now Executive Director at Movability Austin
