Coaching Success Stories

Kelly-Lee's coaching is direct and bold! Her style is very distinctive, and I found myself relieved, refreshed and empowered by the end of our session. In less than 30 minutes, I had cleared up my frustration, explored the options and came up with both a short term and longer term plan of action. I appreciate the efficiency and elegance of the process and the concrete results that it brought to me. Thanks, Kelly.

When I began my coaching sessions with Kelly I was nervous about getting into the “business” arena of my coaching practice. Kelly’s mentor coaching was flexible, she provided me with ideas, feedback and direction. More importantly, she had the unique ability to see the direction I wanted to and needed to head in and was direct in pointing out areas where I may have been misguided or unaware of certain factors. After working with Kelly I am no longer nervous. In fact I feel quite confident in trying new things, researching information, asking for help and see that I do not need an MBA to make a success of my practice.

It was very interesting and helpful to be coached by someone with good knowledge and experience of the corporate world. I now feel more comfortable and confident in targeting my market and how to market both individual clients and companies. This has proven very, very helpful and I recommend Kelly to anyone who wants to be successful in the business world.

Thanks Kelly!

I have to tell you that Kelly will change your life the moment she walks into it. You have no choice, her vivacious personality and direct approach allow her to reach people instantly.

I began my coaching session with Kelly in May of 2005. At that time I was frustrated in my career and felt that I wasn’t able to communicate effectively with my superiors. I had become invisible in the organization where I was working.

In the very first session, Kelly helped me to define the management style of the people that I work for and with. This allowed me to try new approaches to communicating with them. The results were earth moving!

With continued sessions, I tried new approaches and publicized my accomplishments and received Kudos from our President in a company-wide assembly. I also became the “go to” person on process solutions and strategic direction for other managers and even the senior executives.

My coaching sessions have not ended with Kelly. She has boosted my self-esteem and empowered me to be the Manager that I want to be. The sky’s the limit as to where I can take this and I’m bringing Kelly along as my personal guide.

I would recommend Kelly’s coaching to anyone who feels they are in a rut, or feels that they could be doing more in their career and that they deserve that next promotion. Give her a try, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Sincerely,

We’ve experienced much transformation in the Utility sector, change has now become the norm and the role of a CEO has become more complex and challenging then ever. The saying is true; it is sometimes “lonely at the top.” Kelly provided a comfortable environment to openly discuss challenges and proved to be a valuable sounding board. In particular, she helped me to realize that I need to further maximize my strengths in order to succeed in helping our membership adapt to the new environment, to gain clarity and focus on the right issues. Overall, I found the coaching engagements to be very rewarding.

I recommend to any Senior Executive who wants to succeed to partner with Kelly.

I knew that Kelly would be a very easy person to communicate with. I thought that I knew myself well and was not sure what I could learn about myself from the coaching experience. After all, I have been operating a successful business for the past 7 years.

During the coaching conversations, Kelly created an open environment that was non-threatening and non-judgmental, she very quickly established rapport and trust. To my surprise she challenged me to focus on my problems and encouraged me to come up with the right solutions.

I liked the fact that I had the ability to speak with someone who was not part of our company. I recommend Kelly to anyone who needs an unbiased coach who has no vested interest except to help you succeed.

Thanks Kelly for your support.

This past year, I was recruited at the Vice-President level to lead organizational transformation within a mid sized entrepreneurial, Canadian based International company. Kelly-Lee Mansi via her coaching skills provided an excellent sounding board, with strong business savvy and political insight to enable me to successfully achieve the following:

         -Lead organizational strategic change
         -Build cross-functional senior management buy-in
         -Restructure and integrate business teams to leverage corporate
           synergies
         -Increase team/individual role clarity, empowerment and
           accountability
         -Enhance overall team motivation and performance

On an interpersonal level, as a business coach Kelly-Lee was challenging, motivating, supportive and worked as my personal partner to achieve the company’s business goals. She encouraged me to look into the leadership style and motivation of my peers to understand how I could build a “win win” scenario to gain their support for rapid change management. Kelly-Lee’s “let’s make it happen” approach enabled the business strategy to shift quickly into the required actions for a successful outcome.

I continue to leverage Kelly-Lee’s coaching abilities as I approach new challenges within my career. I respect her business experience and her positive coaching ability to bring out the best within myself.

Sincerely,
Kathy Spencer

Don't think you need a coach? I used to think that too. I was already successful, confident and had a decade of business experience under my belt. I felt totally prepared to tackle my latest venture. However, in only a few hours, Kelly-Lee helped to show me I could achieve so much more. During our weekly sessions Kelly-Lee challenged me to re-examine decisions, motivations, and even helped me to identify some underlying fears that were holding me back. Not afraid to tell it like it is, her no-nonsense approach was greatly appreciated and respected. I am confident that she has saved me a fortune in time and money-keeping me from repeating the same mistakes ever again. Regardless of your experience, I highly recommend you talk with Kelly-Lee, and let her help you discover levels of success you never imagined were possible.
