Donna has helped me stay focused in my search

,

I began working with Donna with the purpose of developing a smarter approach to career and company exploration–I have been working for the same company for almost 30 years and am ready to change companies, jobs and industries. Donna began by reviewing the career exploration results from the past, then working with me to determine my values and desired business characteristics, then map these against potential jobs. The result was a focused set of jobs that I could begin exploring.

Since our first meeting, I have made extensive use of the resources on her web site (more comprehensive than anything else I’ve seen) and have had quite a few informational interviews which have helped me not only hone in on what I like but revealed that there are some jobs I have no interest in doing. After each interview we discussed what happened and what’s next (e.g., after sending a thank-you note, it never occurred to me to occasionally check in with those I interviewed with when they had jobs I wasn’t interested in).

One tool that I’ve used for networking is Linked In (LI). I used to think of LI as Facebook for business but Donna showed me how to strengthen my profile and use it more effectively (e.g., LI has helped me find people to have informational interviews with).

Finally, Donna has helped me stay focused in my search, especially when she saw that I wasn’t spending much time on it. She encouraged me to track my weekly activities, then asked me at one point how much time I was willing to devote to this search. It was a nice reality check: to have someone on the outside challenge me to revisit the commitment to meeting my goal because at that pace (1 – 2 hours per week), I wasn’t going to get there anytime soon.

I would highly recommend Donna and her team at Glacier Point Solutions. Her coaching and resources are first class, and I appreciate the focus that she’s brought to my exploration. In the process, I have built an extensive network that I’ve been using to find a more satisfying and rewarding career.

I would recommend them to anyone looking for a leadership coach

,

I worked with Katie from Donna Schilder Coaching / Glacier Point Solutions for over a year and would recommend them to anyone looking for a leadership coach. Katie is very good at making me think in the ways that I don’t want to think but need to. She is very receptive with all things I would like to speak about, and when I am not sure she always gives me ideas on what we can talk about. We’ve worked on:

– Clarifying my goals and focusing on the ones that would move me forward
– Team motivation strategies
– How to let go of high expectations during challenging times
– Communication strategies
– How to manage overwhelm
– How to put a routine that works for me in place

Thank you for helping me work through some issues I’ve been having and giving me tools that I can utilize between sessions! I have also worked with Chris and she was also just incredibly supportive and knowledgeable!

Katie has been integral in helping me

,

Standing at a pivotal juncture in my leadership journey can be both intimidating and bewildering, yet it’s equally invigorating and inspiring. I found myself at such a juncture last year when I embarked on a leadership coaching journey with Katie of Donna Schilder Coaching / Glacier Point Solutions.

Katie has been integral in helping me to define and redefine goals, develop clear objectives, and recognize and develop skill opportunities and then holds me accountable to achieve all of the above. She also helps me explore opportunities that may be curtailing my growth potential.

My coach helps me to examine a range of interpersonal relationships that I have at work and how to manage them more effectively. She holds me accountable for learning, executing, and paying it forward to my leaders. Additionally, she aids me in breaking free from self-imposed limitations and in diagnosing areas where I can take action.

Katie is a great sounding board and helps me to fully explore the challenges that I face. She provides me with a confidential space to speak about challenges I am having, listens, empowers me to shape my direction, and reminds me that each step has a purpose and it takes the brain time to adjust to this new way of thinking and coaching.

Katie supports me (without having an opinion!) in assessing and taking calculated risks, as needed, making difficult decisions, and doing the “right” over the “easy” thing. She also helps me to reflect and acknowledge difficulties and reflect successes back to me. And she continues to ask questions that help me consider many angles and think ahead to plan for the future.
