"I have a deep and abiding appreciation for Ed Mitchell as a coach and a consultant. His non-judgemental style, mixed with his skill, integrity and caring, allowed me to find the best in myself and to utilize these qualities and talents for my own professional and personal growth."

"While a bit skeptical initially, I am now several months into the coaching relationship with Ed and have found the time we spend each week to be rewarding and time I look forward to spending. He helps me both set and achieve my personal and professional goals. While there is an agenda for our time together, it is flexible and allows us to focus on immediate issues as needed. The whole process has been helpful for me in thinking about where I am in life, where I want to be and how to get there. I learn something each week and find the sessions insightful and valuable."

"As an owner of a small business, I believe that the success of our business rests with the people. After working with Ed on a one to one basis, I realized that what he had stirred in me needed to be spread throughout our organization. With the idea of change and growth of and through people, we formed a core team to be coached by Ed.
Each team member formed goals around job responsibilities and laced these with personal goals for themselves. While the work was hard, through Ed's ability to create a "safe place", each person was able to achieve a personal level of success. The realization of individual success has transformed the company to another level. How we relate as people who work together is more honest and team centered.
I firmly believe that Ed has the "right stuff" for the people working in corporate America today. The challenges facing business in these times, can be better resolved through well coached teamwork. Ed has helped us remove the stumbling blocks by creating a more level playing field. From that place, our people have become more empowered as individuals and the business is much more successful."

"I've noticed many improvements in the two managers that I've had you coach. The word "coach" was invaluable as neither one of my managers would have liked other possible terms. The balance of confidentiality, reports, and also the ability to offer feedback on immediate problems has been invaluable.
I would highly recommend Ed Mitchell particularly as well as his company."

"After practicing law for 18 years I found myself frustrated and unsatisfied. As it became increasingly difficult to perform as a lawyer, or even spend time at my office, I turned to Ed Mitchell for help. Following several months of coaching from Ed, I now practice law under different circumstances that are workable. I also am pursuing other business ventures that are stimulating and proving fruitful. My productivity is better, my energy level is higher and my prospects more promising.
Ed was essential in helping me make needed changes. He guided me through a process that enabled me to make decisions and effect change with confidence and clarity. Ed did not direct me toward any defined goal or outcome. Instead he provided a structure and a balance that allowed me to choose a direction and realign myself. The process was sound and reliable. It served to help me sort out which factors were unique to me and which were external, which were within my power to change and which were not. With Ed's guidance I have made changes I believe are justified and valid. He is an effective coach and mentor."
