Executive & Management Development

The basic design of a coaching program is one-on-one interaction, specifically tailored to meet the individual manager’s particular requirements. The coach knows the right questions to ask, which prompts the manager to discover the best solutions.

The coaching program takes place over time, not in a concentrated training class, so new behavior takes hold. The coach is an objective observer who communicates with empathy to promote confidence and personal growth.

Testimonials

“Margot has been a great asset to Pinchevsky when it relates to everything Human Resources. From recruitment, HR manual, network of experts, funding sources and coaching/advising on personnel situations, Margot's knowledge and experience has assisted Pinchevsky in achieving a level of professionalism, and building a HR system of the highest standard for a firm of our size.”
Terry Trotic
President & CEO
Pinchevsky & Co Management Consultants

“One word that can truly define Margot's work is EFFICIENCY. Our company has been working with Margot and her team for several years and she always understood rapidly the needs of the organization, mainly because she takes the time to listen carefully about the problems and scope of the mandate, and then manage to deliver a practical and efficient solution on a timely basis. On top of this, since she is very open-minded, it was always a pleasure for me and my team to work with her. I would be pleased to provide more information to anyone interested.”
Yves Grou,
LMS Medical Systems, Montreal
Chief Financial Officer

“My dealings with Margot have been extraordinary. Margot displays the highest level of professionalism mixed with strong business acumen. Her depth of experience as a seasoned individual allows her to provide quality advice on various topics. I would recommend Margot for any mandate requiring expertise in HR and general counseling.”
Carlo De Rose ,
Regional Vice President - Private Client Group,
TD Waterhouse

“I first met Margot in 2004 when the HR department needed to be realigned and she put together a roadmap (that we still use as of today) that helped us correct the situation. She brought both her expertise and her business acumen which were both lacking in this department. And it's these qualities, combined with a personality that is perfect for the job that made this relationship last so long. Lastly, she has helped us while the current HR director was on a sick leave and it was seamless. I strongly recommend Margot for her expertise, knowledge of the business and her great judgment that comes from her many years in the business.”
