QUOTES:
“Even today, almost every Silicon Valley founder or CEO still do not have an executive coach, and it is now becoming common practice that they need to get one.”
“You don’t have this package mindset in CEO coaching, specifically in tech, because there is no finish line. Because there is no finish line, it is just kind of this endless retainer that you end up developing with people.”
“One of the things that we try to do at Practice is open community to make sure that people have an opportunity to talk to one another. That way they can really open up and share stuff.”
“I think for people that are into figuring out what their missing step is, then this [offer] will be super useful for them.”
