Robert is a wonderful coach; a terrific listener and observer. He asks a lot of prompting questions which helped me to look at different approaches and learn to take a pause to reflect.

Working with Robert enabled me to shape and implement my own set of professional objectives and identify areas on which I need to focus in order to take my career to the next level. Robert has a warm and genuine manner and opened my eyes to what I really wanted to achieve. He also worked within my budget and tight timeline. I've gained invaluable insight in the short period of time we worked together and I am forever grateful.

Navigating emotional interactions and serving on team are more difficult than we might first believe. One person might say something that lights another person's fuse and they explode out of nowhere. Often that person may be us.
Robert provides deeply researched insights, expressed simply and in a usable form so we can apply them to our work teams and our relationships in general. Through real-world stories and his own generous spirit, Robert was able to provide us with a new language and tools that are helping us to improve on a daily basis.
I cannot recommend Robert highly enough. I hope you will gain as much benefit from his work as we do.

Robert is a powerful and highly effective business coach. I worked with Robert to clarify my goals, next steps, and to breakthrough the barriers preventing me from taking decisive action. Robert is both a rigorous and a compassionate coach who only has the best interests of his clients. I’ve also participated in his webinars and programs which are designed to develop participants to become better leaders who build High-Performing Teams. I recommend Robert without hesitation.

Robert led a workshop this morning on high level executive leadership for one of our Business Roundtables. The program was engaging and highly interactive. Every one participated. An attendee said it was one of our best programs ever and how soon could Robert come back? Great job! Thank you! I highly recommend Robert if you’re putting together a program to engage senior level executives and help your team achieve the next level of success.

Robert's expertise in developing a high performance culture has helped our company to develop our team to be better in all of the areas that really matter. His emphasis on Emotional Intelligence has placed our focus on the relationships of our team members with the added bonus helping us to create a safe and productive environment for enhanced communications. As a result, we are working together better and more cooperatively. Additionally, he was an expert guest on our weekly podcast show. I highly recommend Robert and Black Diamond Leadership.

My CEO and I have been seeing Robert for almost a year. Since working with Robert I’ve had a lot of eye opening experiences that have made me a stronger leader. He’s helped me achieve a new level of management and leadership I had been striving toward but never able to obtain.Robert is always challenging me to step back and look at the bigger picture which, in turn, has allowed our team to grow for the better. No matter how established your company is or how strong your leadership skills are I highly recommend reaching out to Robert!

Robert Grossman, Manager Partner of Black Diamond Leadership, was truly instrumental in helping me get to the next level in my career. His coaching style is both pragmatic and proactive which worked very well for me. I have an extremely busy schedule as I’m sure many of his clients do and Robert was great about keeping me on track and working toward my goals while at the same time not making me feel like I was failing if I missed a milestone. I felt like he was truly engaged and really honed in on solution building including helping me understand my goals when I had lost my vision and direction a bit. I hope to work with Robert again in the future and would certainly recommend his coaching to anyone who, like me, needed a bit of recalibration in order to take the right steps.

I engaged Robert Grossman, owner of Black Diamond Leadership to help me with a speech I gave at a charity gala. I never enjoyed speaking publicly and I was really nervous about this speech. Robert worked with me to understand my fears, where they were coming from and gave me some tools to relax and deliver one of the best presentations in my life. Robert is understanding and kind, but very rigorous. He would not let me off the hook and he made me feel comfortable and I completely trusted Robert throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Robert as a business coach if you want to improve your business, learn to be a better leader and of course, own the stage during a presentation.
