Coaching Case Study

“I have been working with Erik over the last year and through his coaching I have been able to believe in myself and be more confident in my decisions. I have been able to see new challenges as opportunities instead of blockers. In addition, I have been able to help those around me by being more focused and intentional in my actions.”

Matt D., Coaching Client

When Matt first sought coaching, he was struggling with leadership uncertainty, decision fatigue, and competing demands. Despite his expertise, he felt reactive rather than strategic, unsure how to amplify his influence in a way that aligned with his values.

Through a structured coaching approach combining design thinking, Positive Intelligence, and leadership prototyping, Matt transformed his mindset and leadership approach. Over six months, he learned how to:
Test and refine his leadership style through small, high-impact experiments
Reframe challenges into opportunities and lead with confidence
Foster a team culture of engagement and innovation
Navigate executive influence with clarity and strategic intent

Matt didn’t just grow as a leader—he became an influence multiplier, mentoring others and helping his entire team level up. His success is a testament to how leadership isn’t a one-and-done skill—it’s an iterative, human-centered craft.

If you need to articulate your DEIB with the company strategy, I recommend you contact Erik.”

Marta B., Training Client

The Project Management Institute Pittsburgh Chapter was facing a crisis of alignment. The leadership board was fractured, disengaged, and struggling to move forward with a unified vision. Meetings were tense, strategic direction was unclear, and collaboration had eroded.

Through a tailored human-centered design approach, we helped the board:
Uncover the root causes of misalignment through structured leadership conversations
Redefine their mission and values to create a leadership culture grounded in clarity and accountability
Implement empathy-based leadership principles to strengthen trust and engagement
Develop a practical framework for decision-making and execution

The outcome? A revitalized leadership team, clear strategic priorities, and a renewed commitment to leading with intention. This transformation reinforced a core truth: Leadership isn’t just about managing tasks—it’s about building environments where teams can thrive.
