"I think working with Integrus has been a great blessing. Their unique process of identifying growth opportunities and properly addressing them has been instrumental in my development. Nick was great about outlining growth steps and reviewing them on each call. Also, he was able to share opportunities for growth in my personal lide which directly helped my professional life. The connection I made with Nick could only be described as a divine appointment. We instantly connected and our relationship allowed for transparency which helped my development immensely."

"I didn't even know what my goals were when I started coaching with Nick. I just knew something wasn't working, and I needed help. Nick was instrumental in calling out the skillset within me, particularly in leadership, and encouraging me to step outside of my comfort zone. Because of him, I was able to have several brave conversations with my team's leadership. I will forever be a stronger, more confident professional because I partnered with Integrus."

Cara

"With Nick as my coach, I grew in confidence much more than I could have on my own. I felt supported and able to step out of my comfort zone and learn to lead better. I appreciate that before Nick brings something to the table for us to discuss each session he would give me the opportunity to put something on the table. Nick was also great at helping me see around corners and anticipate challenges I would not have thought about on my own."
