What People are Saying about the Work

As an executive, there is not a day that goes by where I don’t apply the coaching skills learned from Christy and her book, whether in the boardroom, as a people leader for my teams, or as a mentor. It’s about helping people find their own beautifully unique path, which is so much more impactful than doling out advice or directions.

The program structure was impressive and I was impressed with how Christy was able to tap into each of us...or should I say get us to tap into ourselves. The inclusion of group work and independent self study allowed for different learning styles and engagement preferences. I think that vulnerability and transparency are two concepts that were really embedded into the program and continue to stick with me today. EDGE really helped me to take my personal and professional development to the next level. When I think back about the experience I am in awe of the perfect timing for this experience for me. Growing in self-awareness had the biggest impact on me personally. My experience helped me to articulate my need for transition and growth. From EDGE I learned that coaching is about asking the right questions.

Nothing of enduring significance was created in isolation by one person. Everything of value was built on something that preceded it, and by a community of people that nurtured it. Christy Uffelman personifies that reality in her own life, and amplifies its importance in her book to all who desire their workplaces to be fertile soil for flourishing.

My experience with Christy Uffelman and the peer group coaching was amazing! I really did not expect to have the experience that I had. In my mind, I thought I would learn some new skills, new practices, and things I could implement into my personal and professional life. But I was unaware of how deep I was going to go. It was incredible to be seen, to be validated and recognized for who I was as a person, a woman, and a woman of color, specifically as a Black woman. I don't recall having many experiences throughout all my years of education, self-development, and professional development where I felt seen, validated, and recognized as I did with the peer coaching and within my leadership coaching cohort. It was essential to my growth and changed my perspective of my life. It really was a life-changing experience.

Christy’s framework gives leaders the ability to connect with their team in a new way‒to connect with the whole person, not just their work performance. In thinking about dynamic management teams, having that connection not only with their work related output but them as a person helps demonstrate genuine care, that you want to help them and be there for them. This is the type of culture we are trying to create as leaders. There is a genuine nature that comes through in Christy’s group coaching experience. I’ve dealt with other facilitators and coaches before, and I can tell you, this is a different approach.

During the duration of the program, I was able to develop the confidence I needed within myself. I had been going through a rough patch in my life personally and professionally, but after completion of the program, I became a new-re-found woman. I learned that it helps you become more aligned to have others holding you accountable or just to simply ask for support when you're unsure with a situation in your life. Christy provided us with an enormous number of resources while in the program. And through that, I saw many women in my cohort take all the information we received, apply it to their lives, and shortly after receive promotions and new positions.

As an alumnus of Christy’s EDGE Leadership program, I learned that personal advancement happens when you learn to contribute to others’ successes and have advanced professionally using the concepts she presents in this book. The secret sauce of a highly recommended corporate leadership development program is written in these pages.
