Performance Coaching
- Are your New Years Resolutions a distant memory?
- Do you ever wonder where you should focus your efforts to reach your goals?
- Does billable work always seem to get in the way of finding that next project?
- Would you like your job to be more fulfilling?
- Are you thinking about easing into retirement?
If so, you have come to the right place. I specialize in working with busy professionals, who agonize about how best to move forward or wonder where they should apply their efforts. Together we find ways to create the time and space to uncover what you really, really want and then develop new habits that get you there.
I have spent the past 20+ years in various marketing and business development roles for service companies. In these positions, I have helped my firms develop new business lines, secure introductions, win project assignments, mentor junior staff and represent the firm at industry events.
Recently, I became a certified coach to enhance my ability to help others reach their personal and business aspirations.. I am now working on an advanced coach certification through the Coaches Training Institute (CTI). I offer a mix of coaching, mentoring and consulting depending upon what my clients need to reach their vision of a successful life.

"Deb Crooke is a non-judgmental, encouraging and insightful coach, With a strong background in business development, she easily grasps the challenges I encounter as I grow my business. Her questions and suggestions enable me to move forward efficiently. I could do this on my own, but it would be with a lot more angst, less confidence, and slower progress."
