Some of our clients say...

"Working with Ashley over the past 10 years changed my life — & not just professionally. There were times when I wanted to strangle her, I'll admit, because she made me look at myself with clear vision & make choices that I didn't always feel prepared to make. I began working with her when I was Vice President of Marketing & Sales. Those were the 'good old days'. As I was promoted to Chief Operating Officer, then President, then CEO, & finally, Chairman of the Board, I continued to learn new ways of thinking &, increasingly, to trust my inner guidance. She has been a provocative, sensitive, challenging partner over the years. I am truly grateful for our work together."

"Working with Karna is easy and elegant. The impact of each session is, as they build on one another, is amazing. She creates a safe space that allows me to suspend that critical voice inside and step into a more real 'me' that is powerful, present, loving and successful. Her intuition and insight, along with the techniques she uses, make her an exceptional facilitator & coach. Her clarity and focus help me move quickly through any surface issues to get to the heart of the matter. I truly appreciate the work we have done together, and look forward to doing more."

"As my coach, Mike has helped me transform in my role as a global Strategic Brand Manager in ways I did not dream possible. Prior to utilizing him as my coach, I had achieved a measure of success in marketing; however, I had larger dreams for my professional future. In working with Mike over the last year, I identified strategic new ways of thinking and behaving as a leader that have made an enormous difference in my career and in my life. I have built an extensive network of contacts which has created a virtual team for me to access. I facilitate cross-functional teams to accomplish outstanding results from diverse geographical areas. I learned to utilize my personal power by sharing expertise in participating effectively in teams. All of this and more has made accomplishing mygoals much easier. I am very grateful for Mike's coaching partnership with me."

 

"As soon as I began to work with Ashley four years ago, my life started to change for the better. I learned how to design & facilitate transformational change within the organization in a way that included key contributors, to conduct teambuilding sessions to accomplish specific objectives, & to communicate in ways that built upon the strengths of the individuals that report to me & enhanced their success in delivering results. We doubled sales, increased profitability, built efficient infrastructure & structured new strategic alliances. Ashley's coaching style is supportive, result-focused, & direct. She utilizes numerous thought-provoking techniques that help me move through internal barriers. She does not direct; she facilitates. Above all, she knows I have the answers within."

"Karna has a unique blend of practical business experience combined with a deep understanding & inner wisdom that helped me identify and move past limiting patterns that have stopped me in the past. With her skillful facilitation I was able to create lasting change and successfully develop new ways to approach marketing my own work."

"I began working with Ashley earlier this year on a regular basis. It certainly wasn't what I expected — & I certainly have gotten results. I clarified my values as a leader & my career direction, received two promotions during the time I have worked with her — & I have never felt more balanced & happy in my life."

"The L4 Leadership workshop has been of tremendous value in building our corporate culture. It originally helped our top management team face some important issues and develop a plan for doing so. We created much needed infrastructure, strengthened our strategic planning process with cascading SMART goals, instituted CRM, and built our relationships with our domestic and international strategic partners. The L4 Workshop for Leaders with 360º feedback is an annual two day event every fall for our company. We work with Catalyst to customize the focus to address whatever is going on inside of CPP. We received the award for being one of the 14 Best Companies to Work For in the Greater San Francisco Bay Area for our size organization. L4 Leadership, Inquiry, MBTI, Assertive Communication and other training programs delivered by Catalyst helped us to create the corporate culture that resulted in this award."

"The L4 Leadership workshop facilitated by Catalyst was breakthrough for my top management team. We worked together to learn the model, diagnosed our current state and created a needs assessment that we subsequently used to strengthen the organization, and doubled sales & increased ROI in the following two years."
