She has developed an extended curriculum to fit our leadership and communication training needs and delivers it wonderfully as an instructor.

"Maureen has been making outstanding contributions to our growing company. She has coached our executive team, has trained a "key managers" group and has worked with managers one-on-one on their organizational issues. Evidence is apparent throughout the company every day in lower stress, more balance, efficiency and an esprit de corps.
With humor, insight, and experience she has led us to a deeper and honest understanding of ourselves personally, and enhanced our interactions with one another. Our young and growing organization is fast becoming a high-functioning team. Soon upper management will be out of a job - how wonderful!"

Do you want an unbiased view of potential weaknesses in your leadership practices? Would you like to better understand why some of your tried and trued practices might be failing?
If you know that you have room for improvement, Maureen can help. I started with an EQ (emotional quotient) test to help identify what emotional response(s) I resort to under difficult situations. As the responses were identified through the test and verified through discussion with Maureen a game plan was established for change.
I can assure you that what Maureen provides isn't an overnight makeover; it takes time and conscious effort to employ the recommendations. However, I am seeing positive results through her tutelage both in my professional and personal life. Recognizing what you are doing wrong is an important first step in improvement. Being provided the tools/options for improvement is the next step. Maureen offers them both.

"This letter is to refer and recommend Maureen Moriarty is the capacity of Professional Consultant and Executive Coach. I have utilized Maureen's services for over two years. I have found her coaching and professional guidance invaluable in dealing with major account strategy development, addressing inter-company personnel issues as well as providing a sounding board for evaluating options to resolve very difficult situations requiring both tack and initiative. Her guidance in the arena of team building has provided for significant and sustained process improvement between multiple departments critical to the success of my business.
I attribute Maureen's coaching skills as a major contributor to a multi million dollar growth in my business over the period of time she has worked with me.
I would recommend Maureen without hesitation to any individual or organization looking to building high performance, professional teams and/or requiring leadership skill development."

"As a coach, mentor and consultant, Maureen left us with permanent changes which improved our operation. We now work in a more efficient service structure. Unlike most outside help, Maureen stepped in first to understand our structure and our priorities. She soon gained the trust and participation of all field service personnel. I learned much from Maureen regarding organizational change. I highly recommend Maureen as a resource to achieve performance efficiencies which seem insurmountable."

Bruce Wynn, Special Programs Manager

"I have a top-school MBA, am classically trained and - on paper - look great. It took Maureen to show me the career-defeating patterns in my behavior.
I just wish I hadn't waited until my job was in jeopardy to find Pathways to Change!"

"It's actually kind of amazing-I spend an hour with Maureen a week but I get at least three hours back because my meetings are more productive, I'm more focused and I know what I need to accomplish each week. In advertising we drool over ROI like that!"

"Unequivocal voice of support, Maureen assumed a very active leadership role with persistence and knowledge resulting in an award winning project. She has an amazing "package of gifts". She is undoubtedly one of the finest professionals that I have encountered in my 30 years of working both in the U.S. and internationally. If she says that she will accept accountability for a project, provide the required resources and get out of the way! Without doubt, Ms. Moriarty is one of the top two or three individuals that I would chose to be on a team. If you have an opportunity to hire her, do so and you will not ever regret the decision."

Director of Home Health, St Joseph Hospital

"Having taught goal setting and personal development myself, I was not sure anyone could show me or teach me anything new that could help me achieve my personal goals. Maureen not only showed me new ways of approaching goal setting and achievement, but she challenged some of my old stand by beliefs and helped me see through my own barriers that I was blind to. I found my "energy" and continue to move towards my goal of being healthy, energetic and creative in all I do. I highly recommend Maureen."

"As a coach-in-training it was important that my own coach not only supported my own growth, but modeled behavior that I could learn from and use myself. This is exactly what I have gotten from Maureen Moriarty, someone who has been critical to my school/work success, and someone whose coaching style and techniques I now emulate in my own practice.
This was a risky time for me, I was changing from a very "known" career to one with lot's of ambiguity; Maureen's system approach really ensured that I create firm foundation's in all areas of my life. This balanced way of operating gave me a strong platform to launch my new business from.
I attribute a great amount of the success I am now experiencing and creating to my coaching relationship with Maureen."

"I like your philosophy and background in organizational development and the openness of our conversations. I appreciate your ability to be frank with me! A colleague who manages the MICU and NICU at Harborview Medical Center attended one of you classes last week with her assistant nurse managers. They thought you and your strategies were great! And, I can tell you this is not an easy crowd to impress. However, I am not surprised you wowed them having worked with you on some of my greatest successes. Glad to hear you are having an impact on healthcare!"
