Director and Principal Investigator
Center for American Indian and Rural Health Equity
“I lead an academic center which works with underserved rural and American Indian communities in Montana. When I had done personal coaching with Rhonda, I found her to be extremely approachable, able to drill down to the issues very quickly while holding the big picture in mind, and adept at removing physical and mental stumbling blocks. So I asked her to do one-on-one coaching with our 18 staff members and faculty investigators, and then she facilitated an amazing one-day workshop for us in Montana. At the workshop, she led us in team- and small-group exercises. We had loads of fun! And our center reaped many benefits such as closer working relationships, more team spirit, and much less reticence to work together on projects. Individually, many of the junior faculty said it was so fantastic that they wanted her back, and could I pay for more one-on-one coaching? Several people have continued coaching on their own with her to help advance their careers. She has really infused a lot of self-confidence in faculty who were burning out, losing focus, and feeling lost. I highly recommend Rhonda as an excellent, insightful, and impactful coach able to move individuals and teams forward!”
