"Stephen Garber and Third Level have been coaching our senior executives and senior managers both individually and in teams since 2004. They have shown a good grasp of our business and people development objectives and successfully helped us to achieve them through coaching skills and outstanding team facilitation. While emotional intelligence may seem to many like a soft skill frill, we have found the unusually grounded applied Emotional Intelligence approach Third Level brings to be of value to raising individual and team performance - and very helpful with client relations. We've very gainfully employed Stephen and his team with both geographic management and teams leading very large projects - with great success and benefit."
