Impact Testimonials

The true measure of any coach is the impact made on individuals and groups through coaching.

Mary really was the key that helped me unlock my potential for growth.

Maria Kallmeyer, Partner, Quarles & Brady LLP

Working with Mary was truly phenomenal. Her knowledge and experience in the business world makes you feel like you have a safe space to practice skills, build confidences, and ultimately, achieve your goals. I was not sure what to expect from this coaching experience, but from the first meeting when we started to dive into my goals, to the last, when we saw all that we accomplished together, I felt like I really improved my ability to communicate and be more effective (and happy!) in my workplace and life. I can’t recommend Mary enough.

I had the incredible opportunity to work with Mary just as I was beginning a new role in Business Development. Mary is ever-present, ever-focused, and ever-wise. Even in our first 1:1, I had an enormous sense that she was invested in both my personal and professional growth. I always left our meetings energized, motivated, and excited to take the next step. I continue to carry Mary’s insightful teachings with me in what’s now my eighth year with this company,” Sarah Koehn, Associate Director of Operations, Meta House.

Mary Balistreri supported CYMKE (City Year Milwaukee) to learn and deepen our emotional intelligence skills. She was a great collaborator to work with as we designed yearlong PD (Professional Development) opportunities for our staff about different emotional intelligence topics.

Additionally, CYMKE worked with Mary to lead our Senior Leadership Team’s retreat to review and recommit to our emotional intelligence commitments…” Elizabeth Flamm, Senior Director of People and Strategy, City Year Milwaukee.
