"Bob has a unique ability to get to the heart of matters with sincerity and tact. He is compassionate and understanding at the right times, yet still a firm leader who holds me accountable when needed. He doesn't really give me the answers. It's better. He draws the answers out of me through his coaching and wise perspective. His counseling background, an extra bonus, helped with a root cause analysis that allowed us to identify the obstacles holding me back and create strategies to move me toward my goals. With Bob's help, I've been able to create my ideal schedule. This actually allows me to handle my responsibilities, accomplish my plans, and still have the flexibility to recharge with recovery, family time, and exercise!"
Brad Robinson, Owner at KaiZenergy & Performance Marketing (RPM)

"Bob is an authentic and consummate professional. Whether he' doing career or presentation coaching Bob helps his clients reach the next level and beyond. When it comes to networking, Bob is a generous believer in "gives and gains" and "referrals for life". I would strongly recommend Bob and Coaching Works to anyone."
Alan Adler, Author, Getting the Fish to Swim to YOU & Keeping Them in YOUR Boat...

"Through our meetings and exercises I was able to uncover what my true passion is and I found the courage to follow it. Perhaps more importantly, Bob helped me get through dealing with my previous failed business so that I could begin to move forward and learn from that experience. Working with Bob was a pleasure."
Jeff Wilson, Charlotte, NC

"I approached Bob DeMers/Coaching Works to explore and review the numerous methods available in order to promote my business. In one word, Bob was phenomenal. He addressed every issue, understanding my reservations and concerns, always had prudent and wise advice, and he came up with some terrific ideas. I found our discussion sessions extremely beneficial. It was well worth the time and investment."

Bob truly understands what it means to be able to listen to someone, make sense of what they are saying, and provide insight and tactics on how to address a multitude of issues. If you are looking for someone who can allow you to be who you are, but work with you to improve not only your weaknesses but your strengths, I recommend you sit down with Bob and allow him to influence your life.
Jason, Professional MBA Student, McColl School of Business, Queens University of Charlotte, Charlotte, NC

"I highly recommend Bob to anyone looking for an innovative yet practical way to bring real value to your personal, financial, business or entrepreneurial passions. He is an accomplished life and professional coach with the ability to target and draw out the natural talents we all possess, but all too often fail to explore. As a former meteorologist, Bob sees life much like the weather, "Always changing and sometimes in the most unexpected ways". But amidst this change, Bob is able to bring clarity, purpose and direction to help you realize your goals. Having attended Bob's workshops in the past and having shared a cup of coffee or two with him, I can attest to a new sense of self-awareness that has charged my life and my passion to do positive things for my family and my future. So if you're looking to leverage your strengths, harness opportunity and achieve your success in ways you never expected, look no further. Contact Bob DeMers at Coaching Works."
Philip Corbett Center Manager, Regus, Charlotte, NC

"Coaching Works! – Coach Bob DeMers provided me with a professional environment in which to engage upon thought processes to allow me to channel small/immediate steps to achieve my short range goals and long term goals in order for me to be on a direct path to my life mission statement. This allowed for self-discovery in a way that was not introduced to me before. This self-discovery process has made for better self awareness about my communication skills and managing up skills that has and will result in noticeable work performance improvements, as well as, focusing on "me" for a change."
Richard T. Wells, Assistant Vice President; Global AML & Economic Sanctions, Bank of America, Charlotte, NC

"Bob's calm, reassuring, and encouraging manner brings out the best in those he works with. His earlier years as a therapist prove invaluable in reading his clients; his sense of humor and upbeat view of life help soften one's die-hard defenses, making the challenging work of self-discovery a more palatable prospect. It's up to you to set the goals, and you determine whether you'll meet them – but Bob's assistance and support can be instrumental in assuring that you do."
Laurie Graybeal, Artist, Charlotte, NC

"Bob is a volunteer with my organization, ProNet Charlotte, a non-profit that offers re-tooling and re-focusing for professionals in career transition. He leads a Job Team as a Facilitator to help displaced workers stay on course with their job search. Additionally, Bob is a workshop presenter. His workshop, Career Mission Statement, encourages and excites newly displaced workers to examine their values and passions and create a plan to work in a satisfying career. On a personal note, I hired Bob as a Coach while going through a series of personal setbacks, including job loss. Bob's honesty, integrity and trustworthiness were critical factors in my being able to talk about and break through emotional barriers which were preventing me from identifying and achieving professional goals. He helped me see where there was a disconnect between my authentic self and career path I had been on. This incongruence had been leading me to experience great disappointment, fear and frustration in my career. This was the awakening that I needed for gaining present moment awareness. As a result, I have improved my communication, decision-making and leadership skills."
