Our Satisfied Clients

“Graduating from high school and moving into the next level of my life is huge. There are so many choices to make both personal and professional. There are so many influences in my life, both positive and negative. It is major to have someone make you think long and hard about the choices you make without judging or nagging . . . someone other than your parents. Maxine is also helping me not dwell on past mistakes, but embrace how those mistakes can develop my future and help me grow into what I want to be. I’ve made it through the first adventure of my life, and I am excited about the next adventure.”

T.D. - JHS graduate 2010

“I must admit, I was extremely skeptical at the beginning of the coaching sessions, but Maxine was able to overcome my early resistance by identifying the root cause of my concerns and she cleverly addressed them with her upbeat disposition and excellent display of professionalism. Through the help of her coaching I have been able to better define my career goals and map out a strategic plan on how to achieve them. Maxine also helped me prepare for a critical lunch meeting with the CFO of my company, which ultimately led to me receiving four opportunities for promotion within the company. Her lines of questioning and her ability to “think outside the box” had me well prepared for every scenario. I look forward to continuing my coaching sessions with Maxine because she has given me a new outlook on all of the possibilities that life holds for me.”

Mr. P - Manager

“Maxine’s natural ability with people and her coaching skills are a tremendous asset to my life. She pushes me to develop solutions for strategies, which fit my life’s journey, and how it all applies to the bigger picture. Sometimes life’s circumstances and opportunities catch you unprepared, and it’s imperative to think proactively and not reactively. That’s not easy . . . it’s a process. It is indeed a pleasure to stand between when we started, the present, and the future and contemplate the progress we’ve made and have yet to make.”

S.D. - Contract Administrator

“Ms. Phillips has been an invaluable asset to my development. She has given constructive, objective direction. Her compassionate and insightful approach has helped me excel in my current position. I consider Ms. Phillips an integral part of my continued development as I pursue other opportunities within my organization.”

L.Y. - Assistant Dean of Academics

“I have grown tremendously and have experienced an increase in personal satisfaction, creativity, and clarity about my career direction. I have felt more motivated to pursue my dreams, both personally and professionally. I am approaching a career transition, as our work site is closing down soon, and the coaching has really helped me to approach this as an exciting time and an opportunity for re-discovery. I am very pleased with the services I have received and heartily support the work Maxine is doing. I believe she is a natural and look forward to our continued affiliation.”

M.R. - Senior Systems Engineer

“Maxine’s coaching has been both professional and helpful to me. Her calming demeanor helps me because I can be a little high strung about certain issues. She always makes me see the solution with her help. She is so easy to talk to and we find ourselves talking as if we have known each other for years instead of months.”

“Maxine is a great person and coach and someone I hope to stay in contact with for many years. She is a great asset to the coaching profession.”

R.H. - Assistant Director

The Highlands Ability Battery I took accurately identified my strengths and challenges. The assessment lasted 3 hours and it allowed me to print out a confidential report immediately after the assessment. Maxine, a Certified Highlands Affiliate in Raleigh, summarized my assessment results and interpreted and explained each dimension in great detail. Coupled with my current job description, she analyzed, brainstormed, and coached me on areas of development. The Highlands assessment not only pinpointed my natural abilities, but also revealed challenges that I could face in work environments and when making educational, career, and life decisions. It also give coaches an accurate picture on client’s natural abilities which enhances the coaching session. In hindsight, I could have saved myself a whole lot of energy, time, money, and grief in my earlier years, if ability measurement tools were developed and coaching were available during those days. Maxine is highly talented in her field. Her analysis was accurate and encouraging. I couldn’t be happier with her work.

M.C. - Delivery Planner

Congratulations Maxine! May Putting on the Whole Armor Conference be the first of many wonderful events! Wishing you and GAMMS Unlimited continued success!
