What people are saying.

“Wendy expanded my leadership potential almost immediately. She communicates directly and clearly what the opportunity areas are, while keeping you engaged and motivated throughout the coaching process. It is a delicate balance and one that Wendy navigates well. She never shies away from a tough conversation. Wendy has many coaching tools and techniques for all learning styles. She quickly helped me improve my organizational effectiveness by helping me better leverage my teammates, understand my strengths and weaknesses, and improve my impact in the organization.”

“Wendy is my go-to person whenever I'm faced with a tough organizational situation. She has the unique ability to get to the heart of the matter and recommend courses of action that are simple, yet remarkably effective. Working with Wendy has made me a better, more effective, and confident leader. You'll recognize what you're missing in the first conversation with her!”

CHRO – Software Technology

“Through our coaching sessions, Wendy helped me realize that I didn’t need permission from others to use my voice or claim my power. She helped me identify self-sabotaging habits that were not serving me—e.g., perfectionism, people pleasing, and avoiding difficult or uncomfortable conversations—and provided constructive advice to overcome these challenges. Wendy helped me focus on the matters that were within my control. She’s helped me develop professional goals that are aligned to my personal values and reflective of my unique skills and attributes, and she holds me accountable to those goals. Working with Wendy is rewarding and I truly appreciate her direct approach and the wealth of experience that informs her insights and perspectives.”

Director, Professional Services

“Weidenbaum Development & Associates worked with us for several years delivering a number of classes, primarily in the management development space.  Their classes were always deeply informative, highly interactive, and engaging. Our managers left their sessions inspired to return to their desks to begin applying the techniques learned, and we received consistent, positive feedback on their sessions.  Finding that Weidenbaum Development’s techniques led to on-the-job results, employees often signed up for additional classes. They were the ‘go-to’ for content that would keep employees coming back for more.”

Talent Manager – Financial Services

“The team at Weidenbaum Development has been an essential fuel in my career trajectory, as well as in my personal growth as a leader. Wendy is the type of coach who instills tools and frameworks of critical thinking so that you can apply them as you grow, while staying true to your core style and values. She has a deep understanding of the nuanced dynamics of Corporate America, yet she’s in tune with how current cultural forces are shaping it, such as Millennial-executives or the need for equitable workplace for women and people of color. I’ve been working with Wendy for over six years and look forward to continuing with her. She is a smart, sensible, thoughtful person, full of integrity and a good sense of humor.”

Executive Strategy Director – Advertising

“Weidenbaum Development & Associates is a wonderful partner. Wendy is able to grasp the subtleties of a team, no matter how complex or difficult their issues are. She helped the team explore the issues they were facing and transform them into a more effective and efficient team by dealing with the tensions head on instead of burying them in the sand. Wendy’s candor and ability to get right to the core of an issue is what I love most about working with her.”

”Wendy helped me to turn frustration into results. She helped me focus on the key issues and then turn them into an action plan. I ended up with great results, leading to a larger than expected end-of-year bonus and got back to loving my job. Her specialty is communication, specifically helping people understand what they want and how to communicate effectively in a non-confrontational way.”
