TESTIMONIALS

Ann Houser, President, International Coaching Federation - Minnesota Chapter

Nirav did a wonderful job leading the Strategic Planning process for the Board of the International Coaching Federation (MN Chapter).  He has an excellent process and framework for Strategic Planning, and asked provocative questions and challenged the team in a constructive and safe environment. He has a special talent for seeing the forest from the trees, being outcome-focused and not getting caught up in the details. He is not only good at what he does, but how he does it. He kept people engaged in the process and kept it positive. The meticulous process he led us through, together with his amazing facilitation skills and positive attitude, resulted in an exceptional Strategic Plan for the organization.

Julie Manworren, President and CEO, Living Well Disability Services

Nirav demonstrates many skills that elicit break through approaches to entrenched problems. I've had the privilege of working on two different strategic planning processes that Nirav facilitated. He is able to synthesize information and facts and bring meaning to the surface. One of our senior leaders noted that Nirav has a unique capacity to integrate his left and right brain activity. I agree and his ability to do this benefits strategy. The environment for disability services is challenging. Living Well Disability Services is better positioned for our future as a result of working with Nirav Sheth.     

Anish Shah, President, QC Training Services, Inc.

Nirav's passion for Business Strategy was very evident in his skilled effort to generate a Strategic Plan for QC Training Services for 2018.  His mindfulness as well his questioning process to gather the necessary facts to formulate the plan shows his deep knowledge of the methodical approach to business strategy.  I believe that implementing this plan will take QC Training Services to the next level of success.  Thank you Nirav.

Warren Watson, Chairman of the Board, Gillette Children’s Specialty Healthcare

I have known Nirav for more than a decade in our work together at Medtronic. I watched Nirav emerge from a terrific technical contributor into an energetic, effective and caring leader. Nirav is driven to find real solutions to real problems, determine a customer-centric guiding strategy and then execute to make it real. In my experience there are usually "dreamers" and "doers" but finding someone who can both "dream" and "do" is highly unusual. Nirav can both "dream" and "do"! Nirav is a leader whose internal compass knows where "true north" can be found and he uses his inner compass to guide his leadership work in all corners of his life. I have personally been blessed to know Nirav as an amazing leader and as an equally amazing human being.  

Lonny Stormo, CEO, POPS! Diabetes Care

Nirav has a fantastic blend of strategic, leadership, and execution skills. I utilized Nirav's passion and skill for strategy multiple times in asking him to facilitate strategic planning for our business, which he did very successfully. Nirav also exhibits strong leadership in all that he does. I love and respect his servant leadership belief and practice. Nirav is one of those rare people who blend the big picture well with getting things done. While working with me, he led cross functional teams to successfully develop products and bring them to market.
