WHAT I DO:
Whether it’s growing the bottom line, building a better business model, improving marketing & customer service or finding work/life balance, I am committed to keeping my clients focused on their objectives.  

From goal setting & strategic planning to end results, I am your accountability partner, keeping you on task with targeted feedback.

WHY IT MATTERS:
Are you looking for a better way forward in business growth, profitability, marketing, employee/customer relations, presentation skills or personal work/life balance? Do you want to grow your business and TAKE ACTION on things you have postponed? Looking for an unbiased perspective?

Are you stuck in a rut with your own personal effectiveness?  In other words: Do you know what you should be doing, but aren’t doing it? Are you doing something you should avoid doing? You are not alone.

WHO I AM:
Known as the "business psychologist", I am passionate about helping business owners & executives live up to their full potential. I have first hand experience with what it takes to succeed. As a business coach, I am your accountability partner, strategic advisor and confidential sounding board.

WHAT OTHERS SAY:

She challenges you to dive deeper into your decision-making process and motivations, and asks probing questions that lead to valuable "a-ha" moments. ... I have tremendous respect for Heike; her skill and insight have been of tremendous benefit to me, and I recommend her unreservedly." Carmel Ferrer
