What Others Have Said About Leadership Coach Academy's Certified Leadership & Talent Management Coaching™ (CLTMC) Certification:

Nancy leads an excellent program on Leadership Coaching. I feel more prepared to be an internal coach for my company after participating in the Leadership Coach Academy. Nancy has deep expertise on the coaching and related assessments to use in coaching. She provides excellent feedback during practice coaching and prepares you to coach in a variety of situations.
    ~ Linda Wilson, Leadership Talent Manager at Thrivent Financial

The CLTMC program was a great investment! The 15-week program covered critical coaching techniques and skills, allowing me to learn about the content, and to practice the techniques weekly. Not only did I have the opportunity to learn and practice coaching skills, but I was provided some key resources to leverage, was able to earn relevant certifications (included with the cost), and to rely on Nancy as a fantastic mentor coach.  I have been able to leverage my learnings and techniques in my Fortune 500 corporate setting, not only in leadership and talent management coaching, but in daily interactions with leaders.

     ~ E.G., Fortune 500 Talent Management Director

Nancy is an exceptional teacher and role model for Leadership & Talent Management Coaching. She was equally effective with experienced coaches as well as those who were brand new to the field, like me. In addition, I found Nancy's "People Management Primer" to be an excellent resource for HR professionals and coaches alike.
    ~ Brady Pyle, Manager, HR Development for NASA's Johnson Space Center, 2008

My experience with CLTMC was excellent. The curriculum was stellar. It was well organized, clear, aligned with ICF competencies, easy to understand, and provided many practical and helpful examples of coaching on different topics. The forms provided are very well written and extremely helpful in my coaching practice. The way each class was conducted was very positive, informative, and really helped me to learn important coaching skills. I cannot recommend this program highly enough!
    ~ Robin Majeski, PhD, Independent Consultant, Organizational Development

This program was the missing link I was looking for to enable me to effectively combine the "heart " of coaching with the ROI needs of the business environment. Participating in this program provided me with valuable content and resources that I can use as coach, career consultant and OD practitioner. I particularly appreciated the wealth of knowledge, experience and practical resources and ideas shared by the facilitator and among my co-learners. Highly recommended.

    ~ Lesley Macartney, ACPC Senior Consultant Coaching and Leadership Development Mackenzie Financial Corporation

I have know Nancy for 15 years and am constantly "wowed" with her breath of knowledge of leadership issues in relation to self and others. Her Leadership & Talent Management Coach certification is an excellent program with rich content, practical application, and opportunities to observe and participate in real life coaching scenarios. I recommend this program to any internal or external coach/consultant who works with leaders.
    ~ Cynthia Kivland, President, CareerPerformanceStrategies

The CLTMC course took my career coaching abilities to a whole new level. Under Nancy’s expert mentorship, I have been able to fine tune (a work still in progress) my skills in active listening and powerful questioning blended with business insight.  After years of working from the perspective of helping clients take action in their job search, this class has given me the tools, resources and strategies to coach leaders and talent within the framework of the organizational initiatives—what a value! It has been very challenging, forcing me to stretch outside my comfort level. It is truly amazing how powerful coaching can move the client’s agenda to ah-hah moments and action that align with the corporate vision and mission. I highly recommend the class to any professional who could benefit from the whos, whats, wheres, and hows in organizational coaching.

Becoming a Certified Leadership and Talent Management Coach™ has allowed me to expand my service offerings. Now not only can I work with career and job change clients, I'm able to effectively coach leaders. It's so exciting to be working with newly appointed and seasoned leaders in helping them develop their leadership skills. I've also found I can command a higher coaching fee working with leaders.

The leadership and talent management program is packed with information that a coach would use when working with organizations. One is exposed to a variety of business areas that need addressing for companies to succeed. I recommend the program for coaches and HR managers.

     ~ Rhonda York, CLTMC, Executive Success Coach

I have been a career coach for 15 years and have been doing some leadership coaching but did not have the confidence to market myself as a leadership coach. This program gave me the confidence and competencies to now market myself as a leadership coach. I already have clients and am enjoying the new challenge!

     ~ Beth B. Kennedy, MS, CLTMC

You're terrific at follow-up, and such an encouragement.

Loved every minute of it and can't wait to take another class.

The CLMTC program gave me many more tools to offer my clients and several valuable models that I have integrated into my coaching practice. I believe that as a result of the CLMTC program I have better outcomes with my clients and reach them more quickly. Clients love assessments and I am now much more knowledgeable about what is available and what various assessments can offer different clients.

     ~ Cami Miller

The CLTMC program is like no other program on the market. It is truly cutting edge and will give you the pertinent knowledge and resources to augment your coaching repertoire substantially or to WOW your employer and make all your HR colleagues envious! Within just a few weeks of completing the training, I was offered a new job leading the talent management function for a national organization. It's been an awesome experience and it certainly gave my career a huge boost!

    ~ Michelle Hauser-Wallace, CCMC Corporate Recruiter with The North Central Group

I feel strongly about the program... This was just another example of what great programs are offered by Susan Whitcomb. The quality of the materials and instruction were awesome.

     ~ Linda Davis

Nancy's class is warm, non-threatening, and the material is delivered very clearly. You never feel like you are wasting time and always are getting an abundance of information with each class session. The class includes lots of application, sharing of great resources -- books, websites, assesments -- and interesting discussion with classmates. This class gave me the knowledge and confidence I needed to launch me into Leadership Coaching.

     ~ Marie Yager, MA

The Leadership and Talent Management program with Career Coach Academy, is a wealth of information that you really don't receive in many programs. I have been certified in many programs that always seemed to have a missing piece. The CLMTC Program is full of empowering, enriching information to use instantly for coaching. This program has truly been one of the best investments I have ever made.

     ~ Cynthia Grant-Cornish, CCMC

The CLMTC course was absolutely wonderful! It was so comprehensive, content rich, and practical. I'm so pleased to now have such solid coaching structures, resources and processes to work with. The instructor was very knowledgeable ... and just a wealth of information!

Nancy is the lead instructor of the Leadership Program of the Leadership Coach Institute. Her program is outstanding, and very very, interesting. I learned a lot on leadership from her program. She is a great instructor, easy to work with, very personable, and she will always answer any question you have and will answer all your e-mails. I would recommend her as very qualified instructor and great coach/mentor. She is very knowledgeable of her programs. I also recommend the leadership program to everyone who wants to work with leaders.
