“Working with Mike Hawkins as my executive coach has been excellent. I found great success in reviewing specific situations with him as well as learning general principles through his real examples. His perspective, knowledge, and vast experience provide a wealth of information. His approach, demeanor, and character make a true impact. When learning how to work with an underperforming employee, for example, I felt as if I was in the dog house. I never wanted to disappoint him. He is clear, articulate, passionate, and fair. He has armed me with the tools and guiding principles to be a great leader.”
