WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING…

 
Having Janelle as a coach and resource has been invaluable. I don’t think I would have grown during the past year in a positive direction without her help. She has been a source of stability and trust that has allowed for me to continue to be resilient during a time that I should have buckled.
— Dr. Emily Stanton - Pulmonology Chief | Colorado Permanente Medical Group
I have really enjoyed my time with Janelle. I bought in and opened myself up to the experience and really gained a lot from it. If the opportunity arose again, I would love working with her. She is very approachable, easy to work with and insightful. Having time to sit back and think through goals, decisions and processes was invaluable.
— Dr. Greg Berman - Senior Transformation Officer | Kaiser Foundation Health Plan - Denver, CO
 

“This was a wonderful experience. I have had coaches before, but Janelle clearly stands out. Her ability to connect my emotional and physiological responses to work stress is superb. She is gentle but persistent in providing effective coaching, feedback and ideas for personal development and growth. I can’t wait for the follow-up sessions to see how I can maintain what I learned.”

I met Janelle by chance on a flight in 2016 and we established an immediate rapport - much to my benefit. That initial conversation and others that followed led me on a “self discovery” journey that was aligned with my faith, and which has been incorporated into my big picture thinking, as well as my daily routine.
— Jeff Beck, President and Certified Player Agent | Proformance Baseball
We knew within the first session that our time with Janelle would really help our business. To put it simply, she helped us identify our strengths and understand how to support one another to operate as an effective team. Our sessions with Janelle were not only eye-opening, but also critical for our long-term success.

I’ve found my coaching sessions with Janelle to be transformational; I learn more about myself every time we talk. With Janelle’s guidance, I developed a plan that I use to handle specific situations. In the past, these situations triggered an intense flurry of emotions that distracted me, and generated unproductive leadership behaviors. I’ve encountered this same situation numerous times since we developed this plan, and my reaction/response are much more productive, and more importantly, I just feel better and more confident.
— Dr. Jarod Conley - Regional Medical Director | Colorado Permanente Medical Group, and COO | Aspen Realty Group
 

“Janelle was a life-changer for me. She led me to be more self-aware and taught me how to display the empathy I was feeling. She was an executive coach at my company, and I could feel the difference she made on our executive team. She is a fantastic coach for high-level professional leaders!”

Dr. Jon Masoudi | Vice President of Specialty Care | Colorado Permanente Medical Group

I had the very good fortune to have Janelle Banat coach me when I was a vice president with the Colorado Permanente Medical Group. Janelle made a profound difference in my effectiveness both as a leader and a teammate to other leaders. Her neurobehavioral, evidence-based approach, combined with a wonderful sense of humor and empathy allowed me to see my best opportunities for improvement. I learned what was triggering the behaviors that put barriers between myself and other team members and how to honor my values in bringing my authentic self to my leadership. I can say that she was integral to my personal and professional growth and that her coaching brought me insight and illuminated a path to managing complexity with curiosity and fearlessness.

Our organization was going through particularly difficult times while Janelle was working with our executive team. We welcomed her to our most important meetings, where she provided insight to the team on our communication and how to overcome some of the traps that undermine effective teams. She was a consistent calming force and quickly gained our trust.

I believe that Janelle will make any leader more effective. She will not make it easy, however. She expects her clients to question their assumptions and open themselves to the possibility that learned behaviors may not always be the most adaptive ones. I promise that she will respect you, your privacy and your perspective. But she will not defer to your title or position in asking that you engage in your own improvement.
— Dr. Ken Faber - Vice President of Clinical Care | Grand Rounds, Inc.

"I have already recommended 4 other people (direct reports and chiefs in our company) to engage with coaching opportunities based on my experiences. This "work" felt like a gift. It felt like an investment in me as a person and as a leader. The ability to strategically work on goals that were timely, appropriate, and specific to me was one of the most valuable experiences I have had in a long time. There is a huge difference between sitting in a one-time class and learning about skills and working with a coach to actually practice and implement skills.”

This has been the most valuable leadership coaching/training I have received so far. The individual 1:1 relationship with my coach was invaluable, and she helped me gain a lot of insight into my own reactions and emotions and effective ways how to react differently to greatly reduce my stress as a leader.

Coaching is such a valuable tool. It is so helpful to have time to focus on personal development. It really makes me feel valued by (respondent’s company). I would recommend this program to others w/o reservation.

“Coaching was a win for the following reasons:

1) Individualized work (not a class)

2) Coach is an accountability partner to move process forward and ensure work gets done

3) Coach is knowledgeable in asking questions to help identify triggers for unwanted behaviors/how to shape response to triggers

4) Coach is insightful-able to dig deeper to help clarify values

5) (respondent’s company) is investing in me, and I feel valued as a result

6) Systematic/automated feedback from co-workers or others in our circle is really valuable to see how we show up/progress in our work

7) By reflecting on coaching, I can translate some of these behaviors/tactics/tools to my own coaching leadership for those who report to me.

Thank you for this help, and for the investment."
