I had the amazing pleasure and benefit to work with Deirdre at Harvard Business School on an Executive Program which allowed me to work one-on-one with her, in addition to working in a group setting as well, as an essential and critical part of this transformational program at Harvard. Deirdre is the ultimate professional, raising the bar each week with incredible insights, wisdom, experience and deep knowledge of executive coaching by providing key resources and allowing you to engage in the internal self-evaluation and reflection, motivation and aspiration of your true self. Deirdre allowed me to frame my goals and opportunities in a very clear and specific way by creating a personal vision as a guideline to move forward after the program. Thus, Deirdre is not only an executive coach but an amazing human being, which you can see at first hand with kindness, inclusiveness, thoughtfulness and extremely positive views of finding always the best in each person. Deirdre is a major asset to any individual or corporation and I highly recommend her as an executive coach.

“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Deirdre for two years in her capacity as a coach and facilitator. Deirdre’s insight, perspective, and thoughtfulness are exceptional. She has a unique way of creating an environment that gently but intentionally encourages substantive discussion and feedback and then takes that information to a place where one feels seen, heard, and understood. Deirdre is also exceptionally skillful at assisting with realistic goal-setting and working through any issues that may be an obstacle to those goals. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Deirdre!”

“Deirdre is a highly professional coach. She is compassionate, a great listener and an effective communicator. She is skilled in helping her clients to be open to change and a new way of moving throughout the world that will support them in living a more productive life.”

“I have had the opportunity to benefit from Deirdre’s exceptional insight and compassionate leadership in her capacity as coach and group facilitator over the last two years. Deirdre demonstrated deep skill in framing, clarifying, and moving discussions while providing authentic space for listening and reflection. She possesses a clear talent for identifying both strengths and opportunities for growth while nudging individuals and groups to get creative and curious about their concerns and aspirations. She clearly possesses key knowledge, tools, and resources and is effective in deploying them while simultaneously generating and leveraging the wisdom of the group and individuals. She is an asset to any individual, group, or organization seeking effective coaching and facilitation.”

“I recently completed an engagement with Deirdre as my leadership coach and I recommend her without hesitation. Deirdre exceeded all of my expectations.

Through our work together I have been able to evolve into a more confident and effective leader.”

“Deirdre is a tremendous leadership coach. She came to every session during our engagement with thoughtful preparation and a calming presence. She is a good listener and comfortable challenging my thinking. I appreciate the way she drew me to my own conclusions with her thoughtful approach. It is clear that Deirdre invests a lot of time and energy (reading, classes, practices, clients) in expanding her knowledge in ways that continue to make her a better and more knowledgeable coach. Deirdre is a pleasure to work with and very effective at her craft. I highly recommend her as a coach.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Deirdre Soraci for the past two years, and I have been consistently impressed with her insights, confidence, and thought-provoking approach to coaching. Deirdre is an exceptionally insightful coach, and that comes from her listening abilities. She is always intently listening and does not divide her attention. She has a deep understanding of human behavior. She has brought tools and techniques to focus our discussions. Deirdre is thought-provoking and provides support and encouragement as we step out of our comfort zone. This includes identifying our own blind spots and being realistic and objective about our skills and talents. Deirdre is always asking questions that help me think about my leadership skills in new ways. I highly recommend Deirdre and believe she would be an asset to any person or organization, and she can help your leaders achieve their full potential.”

“As a talent professional, it is difficult to find a coach who can offer something more than what I have seen or even used before in my own stakeholder coaching sessions. Deirdre brought so much more than I expected. I am truly grateful for her insight!! I strongly recommend Deirdre and will look for opportunities to work with her again.”

“Personal and professional development is an evolution that takes time, hard work, commitment, and a great Coach! Deirdre is that great coach! She helped me think through those areas that were most important, develop a targeted approach to achieve results, and more importantly methods to help identify when slipping back into a less effective state and how to correct. Super excited to continue working with Deirdre.”

Deirdre is an inspiring coach. She is insightful, caring and a terrific listener. She led me on the path of a happiness I have never before felt in my life so consistently. She provided thoughtful tools to self-analyze and completely changed the way my mind reacts and responds to negative thoughts.

Deirdre is an incredibly talented, natural coach. Her uplifting, positive, and fun personality make her easy to open up to and wonderful to work with. She has not only been an amazing coach but also a caring mentor. The strategies I learned have inspired and motivated me to more fully integrate my values and passions into my career. I’m very grateful to have worked with her and highly recommend her services to anyone who is looking to transform their leadership skills.
