Robert Huffman

As a genuine and compassionate coach, Bob empathetically listens to leaders through emotional sticking points, hard predicaments, or circumstances. He comes alongside leaders guiding them to discover fresh ways in appreciating their talents and engaging strengths to their fullest potential. There is a greater purpose to an engaged strength filled life. It is a fresh and fulfilling approach for leaders to thrive in vocations and transform the marketplace.  

As an enthusiastic facilitator, adult teacher, certified life coach, and past Toastmaster’s member, Bob enjoys public speaking and has authored and facilitated hundreds of corporate and community seminars, classes, workshops, and conferences – primarily centered on improving leadership skills for growth and achievement. His coaching inspires leaders to deploy strengths, pioneer vision, share ownership, communicate courageously, show compassion for employees, assemble effective teams in trusting strength climates, applaud results, prioritize life balance, circumvent burnout and turnover, and to flourish in their roles contributing to something more significant than themselves.  

Bob has served in corporate senior leadership for 25 years in the financial industry, as a SVP (Fortune 500 company) and Senior Director. He has saved millions of dollars for several corporations because he understands the underpinnings and functionality of leadership – what it takes to energize leaders to invest in their best talents. He has strategically coached through a myriad of market and organizational changes, corporate growth/mergers, department consolidations, company staff reductions and management transitions. He has proven record of interfacing and inspiring managers and teams - where combined strengths improve the bottom line.  

His development process is effective: discovery and application of strengths, infusing core values, integrating soft skills, setting critical initiatives, breaking through obstacles, and celebrating achievement. He has mentored countless leaders and believes that tenured leaders mentoring new leaders is a winning strategy.
