"Rosalind’s calm clear method cuts efficiently through excuses and uncertainty to the heart of my most honest personal and professional desires. Each time we meet, I leave with clear direction and an attainable goal in mind. I cannot imagine a more worthy investment toward one’s happiness. Rosalind has helped me to find my way from the hamster wheel to the driver’s seat and for that I will always be grateful."
Jackson, Security Director - San Francisco, CA
Rosalind is amazingly intuitive and perceptive and identifies those things in each of us which blocks us from our own success and has established herself as my most significant and highly valued business partner. I like working with Rosalind because I sense her complete commitment to me and my success. She gives me immediate feedback in the form of a post-session email which also contains the homework assignments we collaboratively established during the session. I am definitely made accountable for my actions and inactions by her. She has evolved with me demonstrating a remarkable capacity for adaptability."
Martin, Lawyer, San Francisco
When I reached out to Rosalind four years ago, I was the deputy director of a county health department - a strong second-in-command to the county health director, but unsure of my leadership skills to take the next step in my career. Within a year of working with Rosalind, I was appointed county health director in a larger neighboring county and since then have been leading a staff of 1,500 with a budget of $950M to address our county's response to society's most pressing health challenges: COVID-19, homelessness, mental illness, and racial disparities in health. I attribute my growth and advancement over the last four years to my work with Rosalind. Rosalind helped me identify the skills and instincts that I already possessed, and recognize and hone them as the qualities of a leader. She provided me with feedback and advice that was frank, challenging, and supportive, helping me develop my ability to navigate complex situations and communicate clearly.
Colleen, Director, Alameda County Health Care Services Agency
"Rosalind has an amazing feel for people and for handling situations in the most graceful way possible. Her contributions to the organization cannot be overstated--she is not afraid to say what other people only dare to think. I truly appreciated her support, and I had a ball working with her."
John, Founder, and President Geolo Capital
"Rosalind’s long term support and guidance has been a lifesaver at a critical point in my life. Her combination of compassion, discipline and helping clients help themselves is critical to creating a strong foundation for a rewarding life for the future."
Jeffrey, Investment Banker, England
“I got connected with Rosalind at a time when I was contemplating a very significant career transition, from a high-status and beloved job that had nevertheless run its course, to a new life as a self-employed consultant. She was able to help me work through my doubts and questions in a manner and at a pace that worked for me. I particularly appreciated that she didn't come with a preconceived "process" - exercises, tests, and whatnot - like so many other coaches do. Now, with the transition accomplished (but straight into Covid!) I am still relying on Rosalind to help me navigate these unexpectedly choppy waters.”
Kenneth, Former Director of Development for City of San Francisco
Rosalind helped me move from feeling merely competent to a place of excellence. I am guided through difficult and simple professional challenges with finely tuned insight and humor. My skills and management style are greatly improved - am a walking attestation that Rosalind does not shy away from old dogs who want to learn new tricks."
