“The course’s impact has been nothing short of transformative, especially for an executive like myself. His expertise and clear communication style made the learning experience concise yet comprehensive, focusing on practical skills and a mindset shift tailored for introverts. One standout aspect was the innovative approach to the "tell me about yourself" question. His visual strategy was a breath of fresh air. As an executive, this approach not only enhanced my interview performance but re-framed how I thought about and communicate my career journey.”

Claire Erickson
VP, Product & Tech Strategy & Operations, Blackhawk Network, USA

“Tim gave me a lot of space to unpack what I struggle with as an introvert, and then tackled each part with an actionable tip. I think the actionable nature of the conversation was what really helped. The professional "advice" I have gotten about introversion in the past has always been too abstract or philosophical to be truly helpful.”
