Provides the Proper Training and Guidelines

Tom has given me the confidence and training as a manager to properly deal with a hectic team and make positive changes within that team. The tools, the exercises, the homework are always fulfilling, and extremely helpful. It made me work harder to make changes and think differently. I no longer have to figure out how to deal with difficult employees. Tom provides the proper training and guidelines to deal with insubordination. Overall, I can say what he has taught me made me more disciplined as a manager. Training with Tom is wonderful.

Strategic in Approach

Tom creates an environment in which leaders gain a better sense of self-awareness and what it takes to drive results. Strategic in approach, he is also attuned to the intricacies within each organization and how that factors into eliciting desired change.

As colleagues for several years, I observed Tom, Sr. Human Resources Consultant at the time, guiding leaders of over one hundred companies through complicated business matters. Industries that he supported regularly include Information, Service, and Manufacturing. When he chose to specialize in Leadership Coaching, I invited him into my organization and am now an active participant in his program.  

Some of Tom’s qualities include trustworthiness, ability to help people feel more engaged and confident, and sheer passion for what he does.

Getting out of your own way

Tom’s leadership experience combined with his diverse professional experience allows him to really listen and find out what you need to achieve success. His coaching process then quickly identifies where you are getting in your own way and provides tips and tools to change your behavior for the better.  Investing in Figiel Coaching has paid dividends for me.

As a mid-level manager

As a mid-level manager, I have to manage both up and down.  I not only have people that I have to supervise but clients and projects that I need to manage.  Tom provides me the tools to put my thoughts into actionable, linear, clear steps and hold myself accountable for my own initiatives.

Huge eye opener working with Tom

Before my coaching sessions, I was frustrated and would react angrily towards my peers and staff. Working with Tom was a huge eye opener as I discovered how to communicate more effectively and developed better behaviors to effectively manage my team. I appreciate that my employer valued me enough to provide me this coaching!
