Testimonials from our Clients about our Executive Coaching
Coaching is invaluable in keeping me focused
When I took on a law firm leadership role in addition to my professional practice, I knew I would need help to maintain balance and perspective. I have been working with Frank for over ten years now. His coaching has been invaluable in keeping me focused on doing the things that really matter, whatever the pressures of the day. This applies not only in my roles as lawyer and leader, but also in my personal life. I can think of a number of things I am proud to have said or done, that would not have occurred to me but for a word of insight from Frank.” ~ Leigh Warnick: Barrister
Making a powerful difference to lives
“Frank Marinko, through his company Empathinko, has made an outstanding difference to the education of students and the professional development of teachers at Berwick Lodge Primary School over the past ten years. Frank is a highly talented coach who has developed a very innovative student coaching program for our senior students.
Key features of the program are the empowerment of students in their lives via the application of valid coaching strategies and the training of teachers to deliver the program. I am particularly impressed with Frank’s dedication and deep desire to make a powerful difference to the lives of school children. ~ Henry Grossek: Principal
Confronting, challenging and enlightening sessions
Our sessions are confronting, challenging and enlightening, during which we use a number of approaches including personality profiling, goal setting, and accountability agreements. All of these approaches have been invaluable to my professional but also personal development. ~ Patricia Roberts: Deputy Chief Financial Officer
Developing personal effectiveness and ultimate success
“Frank Marinko has been working with me over the last 8 years to assist me in developing my personal effectiveness, enjoyment and ultimate success in work and in life through a process of uncovering, appreciating and developing the positive power of the relationships I have in my working life, but also with my family and friends.
Our meetings have been regular, disciplined and demanding – Frank uses a number of readings, exercises, theories, ideas and stories to illustrate what is possible and to emphasize that anything is possible. Frank brings a tremendous depth of thought, insight and personal intuition – it has been a continuing, challenging, rewarding and authentic conversation, one that has benefited me greatly.” ~ Kean Selway: Chief Operating Officer
