“Not many people in this world really listen. Patrick does, and this produces real conversations. I know Patrick will always ask the provocative question at the heart of any discussion. The fact that he can do this, yet still keep a meeting moving along is a rare skill. He is a wonderful facilitator, an insightful and analytical confidante, and a nice guy!”

“Before working with Patrick we had plateaued on making progress to overcome our business obstacles. The lack of knowledge was holding us back. Now I feel reenergized, I feel that I have new ideas and am making the necessary progress to be successful.”
Mark Greenspan, Partner, Research Director Inc.
“Patrick is a great business coach from start-up to mid-size that is teaching me how to grow my business. I came in after having started my business for seven months with some structure and experience, but I needed a solid plan so that I could actually turn my business into a profitable and long-term company and career. Since working together, I feel so much more focused and guided. Patrick has assisted me with so many things, but a few that really impacted my success so far includes:
-Strategized how to develop necessary skills to be a successful entrepreneur
-Looked into niches and specific industries that I can tap into
-Directed me to networking events that are more worthwhile
-Focused my broad range of services on my interests and expertise
-Helped me create competitive packages and pricing
-Assisted me to develop a budget for business and personal expenses
-Gave me wonderful project and time management suggestions
I look forward to continuing to work with Patrick for his expertise and connections and highly recommend colleagues to work with Patrick as well.”

“Patrick recently facilitated a retreat for our Chamber Board and he did an excellent job. I would definitely recommend him based on his expertise.”
Linda S. Zahn, CEO, Greater Severna Park and Arnold Chamber of Commerce
“Patrick facilitated the annual Board of Directors’ retreat at Maryland Hall last weekend, and he did a marvelous job. We had some fairly specific goals for the day, and Patrick made sure we accomplished each and every one. His background in the arts gave him a solid foundation for the day, and he really brought the group to a new level. His energy, expertise and warm personality encouraged everyone to participate. We all left the day with a new sense of pulse and commitment to Maryland Hall, thanks to Patrick.”
Sean Looney, Vice President, State Government Affairs at Comcast
“Patrick recently facilitated a board retreat and he exceeded our expectations. He was professional, articulate and able to achieve the goals set for the retreat and most importantly, able to achieve 100% participation from those present!”
Linnell Bowen, Executive Director at MD Hall for the Creative Arts
“I have taken various personality and skills assessments throughout my life. Despite what the assessments or instructors may have intended; the assessments served little more than entertainment value for much of the audience or me. Afterwards, we just sat around and joked about each other’s idiosyncrasies. My experience with Patrick was monumentally different in three ways. First, I had the time and I took the time to thoroughly fill out the pre-work. I completed the pre-work over a series of days rather than all at once. Second, Patrick coached me to focus on specific pre-work responses and SkillScan results that were most relevant to me. Without his guidance, I would have wasted time and energy trying to analyze everything. Lastly, Patrick’s follow-up included additional information, an offer of future assistance. He even introduced me to one of his professional contacts that was willing to answer questions regarding a career field that appeared to suit me well. All the other personality and skills assessments that I took simply left me with responses and results to laugh about with friends and coworkers.”
