COACHING OF MEN - THE CHALLENGES FACING MEN TODAY
Additional Information
We don't all see things exactly the same way. What you feel is important about being a man may be very different than other men, and/or different than what our partners, children, friends and family want, need and/or expect from us.
- What does it mean to be a man in today's society?
- How is that different than the way it "used to be"?
- You may be juggling career, home, spouse, children, pleasure, recreation, health, wellness, "yesterday's" beliefs about what a "strong man" looks like, acts like, does or doesn't do. I believe that enlightened men need to help other men learn how to focus on the things that may not be celebrated in the past, but may also be the single most important aspect of how we flourish now and into the future. Can we redefine strength so that it is centered on who we are as people and not on physicality? Can we redefine success so that it is centered on our relationships and responsibilities versus financial gain. Can we redefine how we can "have it all" and that by doing so, those in our lives are empowered, rather than possibly being marginalized?
I have been married for almost 40 years. I have 2 adult sons, in their 30's who are independent, with families of their own and they are thriving. I had a very successful executive career and now I have something to bring to my clients that can only be obtained by experience and living it, not just reading about it.
I can help you "have it all". A successful career and more importantly a successful relationship with those who are the most important.
Please reach out to me to discuss how I can assist you in getting there too.

Coaching & Training for those working in Death Care
Death Care - Learn how to work in a business that many find to be challenging and very rewarding.
So you want to work in the death care space (cemeteries, funeral homes, crematories, etc.)? The nature of these types of businesses is that it is very difficult to remain in the field if you don't truly want to play a part in helping your fellow human beings! It is true that almost anyone can have some level of "success" for some period of time, and for the long hall, you will need a multitude of skills and a very specific mindset.
Each silo of the business is a bit different than the other. It is probably obvious to most, that some roles involve working directly with the deceased and others are focused on the family of the deceased. Some roles involve mostly service and others involve products and services. Whichever side you find yourself in or exploring, be prepared to commit yourself to all that it entails.
I spent over 30 years in this space and have a high level understanding of how to "succeed", how to balance service and income, and how to navigate what can at times feel like opposing driving factors. I've worked with family owned locations and publicly owned corporations. I have expertise in sales, operations and administration and achieved a C-Suite role in a very large company. The bottom line is that I know how to help you succeed at whatever level you are aiming for.
I have created specialized training and coaching for those in the business and those desiring to explore what's possible. Imagine working hand in hand with one of the industry's top producers, who found a way to create family focused, employee focused programs so that you never lose site of the mission of the work. Increase your income while at the same time, becoming invaluable to those you serve (the families). You may have the best trainers, managers and leaders and
you may still want or need a more personalized approach. It's quite possible that some of the content that you work with came from me and/or my circle of influence. Changes have occurred over the years and the foundational approach remains relevant!
Cemeteries
There is much to learn about why cemeteries remain a vital part of the circle of life. I can help you learn why and how to talk about it and answer questions.
Funeral Homes/Caskets
Navigating the funeral home world and how to decide on caskets is frightening for many; including the staff at times. Learn more about both and how to discuss a sensitive topic in an empathetic manner.
Cremation/Crematories
Let's face it, cremation is becoming very significant in American culture. Let me help you understand how to explain the process, the benefits and challenges.
Coaching/Making of Leaders
My team was large. Some had a lot of experience and some had none at all. I led this team to top results, drastically reduced attrition, created most of the training programs, and supported the leaders on my team by providing pathways for leadership development, mentoring, coaching and goal attainment.
