Opportu helped me become a better leader for my startup. When confronting a business challenge, my coach taught me how to re-frame the decision-making process to make it more approachable. After a year of coaching, I began to realize I was capable of tackling any problem.

I originally engaged Opportu to assist me with a transition within my company, little did I know that they would be creating within me a foundation that is ready for perpetual transitions that allows for a level set of happiness. Through a deeper understanding of self, a stronger sense of empathy, and social equipment to thrive on a daily basis – Opportu and I have worked to build within me a sense of clarity and purpose that will serve me in every aspect and chapter of my journey. I have, and will continue to, recommend Opportu to my friends and colleagues. The value-add through Opportu coaching, in my opinion, cannot be measured in mere dollars; career growth and personal happiness is where the true value is found. I highly recommend Opportu.

She set the stage for us to take our academic leadership team from good to great. I was thoroughly impressed with her knowledge, professionalism, enthusiasm, and her willingness to spend whatever time it took to collaborate with us to make sure that the experience met, and ultimately, exceeded our expectations. If you are looking for inspirational leadership management training for your team or organization, look no further!

Opportu was extremely valuable to our non-profit organization in planning a critical meeting of our Board of Directors. As President of the Board and Executive Director, I was completely overwhelmed; I was wearing too many hats and knew that the Board was also fatigued by hearing about the same obstacles.

Luckily, I found Opportu! My coach posed tough, strategic and result-oriented questions. She set up an interactive planning process that helped me sift through the multitude of issues and prioritize them. We developed three scenarios for the Board’s discussion.

She then facilitated the Board meeting in an objective and thoughtful manner that enabled us to have an honest and productive conversation. We now have a manageable framework for our decision-making process. Most importantly, the meeting re-energized us to tackle the tough decisions that lay ahead. I strongly recommend Opportu’s services.

Thank you so much for all the work you put into the session today. I’ve heard nothing but positive feedback and one of our senior leadership said that she had never seen such a diverse group of our employees so engaged with each other. I think that has to be the highest compliment you could receive!

Executive coaching has provided me a tremendous amount of value over the years. The team and program at Opportu has helped me focus on becoming a better leader, improved my executive presence, and provided support to me when I was navigating complex challenges with my team and my board. I strongly recommend to everyone that is already an executive leader, or an aspirational executive leader, work with a coaching program like Opportu – as it helps you take your skills to the next level.

The two Opportu coaches I worked with enabled me to shift strategy and move forward onto the next stage of development. They helped me to articulate the growth barriers I was facing but did not have the experience to fully identify. And once identified, Opportu provided tools and strategies for working through challenges regarding team dynamics, management styles, and innovation-blocking habits. Most importantly for me, having a trusted advisor during that period of transition gave me greater confidence we would get past the hurdles.

Working with Opportu was a wonderful experience. Particularly grateful for the 360 review process that was conducted at the beginning—it was incredibly thorough, thoughtful, and actionable. The feedback gave me insight into what my areas of strength and opportunity were and clear guidance on how to take action to modify my behavior towards improving outcomes for my team and myself. I’ve done quite a few 360s before but none come close to this unique format, which neatly categorizes snippets of feedback from interviews with stakeholders. I’m sure I will carry forward these learnings for years to come. I worked with Opportu during a difficult and transitional period not only for myself navigating maternity leave, but also for my company navigating acquisition – the guidance and coaching I received always provided sanity and grounding during turbulent times and helped me see a bigger picture. I’m very grateful for the time I spent with Opportu.
