Comments From Top Global Executives

In his leadership coaching sessions with me, as CEO and our executive team, Mr. John Mattone provided us with a clear understanding of the principles of his intelligent leadership coaching philosophy and process, but above all he delivered various ideas, methods, and practical applications combined with his structured coaching process that resulted in me becoming a better CEO, our senior leaders becoming better and our organization becoming more effective.

Wendelin Zellmayer

CEO-Rising Tide, Schaffhausen, Switzerland

One of the things that I appreciated the most was how he structured the entire coaching process and how engaged he was. His personal commitment to have face to face sessions not just with me, but with my entire leadership team in order to get a very good understanding of the business we operate, our challenges as a team, but also of the industry we operate in. The level of comfort that I experienced working with him was amazing. In Summary, my work with John has had great results and a huge impact on me, my team and our organization. Simply amazing!!
