Nancy Oberst

I end every coaching call with Nancy feeling more confident, supported, and re-energized than I thought possible before the session began. I’m dealing with significant levels of stress trying to build a purpose-driven company from the ground up and “burn out” doesn’t even seem like extreme enough language for how I feel most of the time. Nancy helps me both see the bigger picture and explore granular tactics that make a big difference in the way I move through every day.

Nancy is an incredibly gifted facilitator. She has an extensive yet fluid knowledge base in workplace engagement research, partnership dynamics, and behavior change. Her style is kind and soothing while being passionate, purposeful, and direct. She inspired us to dig deep, lean into the work, and leave with real tactics for what to do with this new information. I took so much away from this experience.

My life has forever changed because of Nancy. She is like the mom, sister, and grandmother I never had and always wanted. She wraps you in a cozy hug while also giving you real talk. I always feel seen. I always feel like I know what to do after I get off the phone with her. She spots my potential so clearly I sometimes feel like she knows me better than I know myself. So incredibly grateful for her as a coach and as a human being in the world.

The Strengths virtual workshop was a truly eye-opening experience for me. It helped me identify my strengths and understand how to use them in a way that is true to me. Maybe even more importantly, I learned how to teach others about my talents and how best to interact with the Strengths of my coworkers.

I think having completed the strengths workshop our colleagues are showing that they have a new found awareness of these skills and more importantly a newfound belief in their own abilities because they have a more defined role in our teams. THANK YOU NANCY! We could not have gotten here without you.

As someone who has difficulty with honest and personal dialogue especially in a professional environment, I find sessions like this intimidating. Nancy made it easy. She made it almost a no-brainer to go there. Part of the way through the workshop I realized how open I had been and surprised myself. I saw how it impacted the people around me in a positive way. Now, I am more willing to trust my teammates and ask for help.
