I have had the pleasure of using Bob MacArthur's services as an executive coach for two years. I can highly recommend his professional responsiveness and individual attention...Bob operated as a sounding board for matters of concern as I took on a new leadership position at the school...Bob has a great ear - he listens carefully. He has a knack for digesting ramblings of the mind to core or essential ideas or actions. He always gave good advice in a kind and thoughtful fashion. He was always available and timely in his communication, and made himself available to me at any time, should the need arise.

Bob's breadth and depth of experience have been of great assistance. He works to bring out the best in each person in a thoughtful, deliberate and supportive style… Bob engages his clients, provides a wealth of information and honest feedback with a strong commitment to capitalizing on the strengths the individual possesses. This allows the person to better tackle identified areas for improvement. His counsel and assistance have been and continue to be invaluable in my professional development.

I met Bob MacArthur coincidently, and through our chance conversations he was kind enough to take an interest in my situation. I was emotionally and spiritually at a stand still in my career. I was not sure if I had peaked, lost interest, or what. Bob helped me to identify the sources of my issues. He also helped me to develop and enhance my self-management skills for achieving my personal goals. He was a coach in every sense of the word. He provided me with support, encouragement and the occasional but necessary reality checks...I mean confronting issues that I preferred not to examine, and validating successes and strengths that I was too humble to recognize and honor. Honesty and integrity are key aspects of Bob's approach. It was a privilege to have someone with Bob's character with whom I could have such open and frank discussions. I feel much better equipped to blaze a trail into the next phase of my life.
Bob MacArthur has the unique ability to listen compassionately while simultaneously challenging me to go beyond my assumptions. An unwavering acceptance of people for who they are lies at the heart of Bob’s gentle yet effective manner in probing the difficult issues that arise as I navigate the process of identifying my strengths and direction. There is no discernable judgment, yet there are helpful insights and suggestions. Coaching is for Bob a distillation of the many interests and talents that he has acquired and cultivated in his distinguished career.
Lisa Dulsky, Burlington, Vermont
I sought Bob's help because I felt stuck...in my career and in my life. Bob helped me to focus on some personal issues that I had tucked away on a high shelf to collect dust. He held the ladder and guided me, while I climbed way up to look at things that would help me move forward towards my happiness. Safely back on the ground now, I know myself better and am in a much healthier place personally and career-wise.
