These choices were also better suited to my personal life but, more importantly, truly reflected my inner self. Thank you for the tremendous improvement in the quality and substance of my life."
--R.D., Physician, Entrepeneur |
"Pressman and Associates has helped me learn how to work smarter, not harder. I consulted them as a small business owner faced with meeting the daily needs of staff and clients; there was little time left to meet my own needs. As a result of my work with Pressman and Associates, I am putting in half the hours and running a more productive business with happier staff and clients. And, oh yes, I am a much happier employer and human being who is opening up to opportunities that I never knew existed."
--AHK, Pre-school owner |

Case Study
An already successful two hundred person manufacturing company employed our services after a recent move. Their goals were to improve performance, increase employee satisfaction, and reduce the stress imposed by the move. A team of our experts came in to study the environment. Interviews with select personnel and testing for needs assessment were performed. This resulted in the establishment of weekly group sessions in the Sales Department, specially selected for the project. Additionally, on-site "curbside" consultation was made available for all personnel to come to on an as-needed basis.
The results were dramatic: Sales increased by 45%, absenteeism was reduced by 50%, and medical costs resulting from stress-related problems were also decreased by 50%. Verbal reports from randomly selected employees gave compelling testimony to a basic truth: when given the structure to express themselves, become involved, and act on their interests, people respond with greater productivity and higher quality in their work product.

What is Life Coaching?
Life coaching is a dynamic, results-oriented approach to living an extraordinary life. It differs from counseling in that it focuses exclusively on helping you define and clarify your goals and then taking the actions to reach those goals with power and with purpose. The chief "work" of coaching is to vigorously move through the obstacles to your goals, that you may see real results in the timeframe you set.
It is said "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, each time expecting different results". Life coaching takes a person out of the rut of creating the same unfulfilling experiences, to recreate who you are and redesign your life according to your highest ideals.
