Testimonials

Rick Holzi
General Manager, Microsoft
"Working with Stephen allowed me to move from general management to true leadership. Stephen understood, well before I did, that I needed to get “out of the box” and focus on high-level strategy and results, instead of day-to-day tasks and accomplishments. I’m grateful that he used a more empathetic, personal approach that helped me see beyond management mechanics and to view myself through a different lens. Stephen not only helped me grow my own career, but has helped me grow the careers of those that I work with."

Stephen Wells
Executive Director, ALDF
“Stephen is a highly skilled leadership and strategic coach who is gifted with an ability to communicate clearly and concretely in terms of objectives, strategies and results. Perhaps, even more importantly, Stephen has the ability to get at the root of barriers to progress on specific goals. His insight is remarkable. One other key attribute of Stephen's leadership work is that while he is a patient and supportive listener he will also push when needed to help an individual or organization get to a decision and keep the process moving forward. Very results oriented.”

Mark Musselman
CEO, Ouray Sportswear
“I have hired Stephen on 4 separate occasions as a life/business coach, strategic planning facilitator, and to help my family business create a culture of aligned leadership. Most recently, I hired Stephen as my coach and mentor. As a part of this latest commitment, Stephen and I worked one-on-one together for a full year. I shadowed him and observed his practice with the intent to launch my own coaching and consulting practice. I can't say enough about Stephen and the incredible results I have experienced in my life as a direct result of working with him.”

"Stephen McGhee is a coach with a track record of transforming lives. He is a master at coaching the whole person and creating a dramatic impact on his clients' physical, psychological and financial well-being. He only coaches a few people a year; so if you have a chance to be one of those people, don't miss out."


Dave Zobl
VP Sales, NRC Broadcasting
“My year working with Stephen proved to be one of the most transformative and productive of my life.  Stephen’s practical, insightful and spiritual approach to personal growth lead me to see beyond the limits of my own self imposed boundaries.  That transformation lead to increased financial prosperity, more rewarding personal and professional relationships, and an overall acceptance and appreciation for my own unique company.”

Charrise McCrorey
CEO
“My work with Stephen has been transformational on so many levels. My business has doubled since we began working together. His firm and gentle guidance has been exactly what I needed and our work together has resulted in my living a successful, fully expressed life. He is spiritual and loving and one of the most disciplined individuals on the planet. If you are ready to do the work, and eager to have your world rocked, hire him immediately.”

Jeff Patterson
Founder/President, Seed Coaching
“Stephen McGhee’s coaching is like riding a bolt of lightning. You better hold on. Not only is it a fun ride, but you will create results at a level you previously thought impossible. Stephen thinks bigger than anyone I know and has the rare ability to coach you to convert inspiration and ideas into results. The past two years, I have created miracles in both my life and business and that would never have occurred without Stephen’s incredible coaching and support. He’s also one of the most caring and committed people I have ever met.”

Deb Ortega
Council at Large, City of Denver, Colorado
"Stephen McGhee and I became acquainted through a mutual friend during my campaign for Denver City Council and realized our common interest to make a difference in our community.  Stephen is currently working with my office and a team of individuals to reinvigorate the film industry in Denver.  He has demonstrated the same interest and commitment to this volunteer project as he does with his other clients.  His leadership style has kept us focused and strategic to insure that our efforts are successful."

Bodhi Kenyon
Executive at World Family, Tokyo, Japan
“Within the first 40-minute conversation with Stephen, I knew that he was the perfect coach for me. He is astonishingly genuine, insightful, creative and kind and knows exactly when to powerfully wield the sword to cut away the reins with which I have held myself back.  Within a few months, I am clearly starting to run my own race, which is truly liberating on all levels.”

Greg Aden
Vice President Sales, IHG
“In my professional career, I have had many mentors but only Stephen has helped move me to personal greatness. He has the ability to reach inside and help the talented see the true grace and power within... because inside is where IT is. The Power of Intention, Being One's Word and Integrity are but three examples of the teachings shared with me from Stephen. He is a man who knows how to create through accountability and use the power of focus to lead others to see their unseen value. It is a perspective from someone who’s been there himself and walked along side a number of other great leaders. Do not hire Stephen unless you intend to fully commit and work hard towards your worthwhile goal.”

David Strumminger
President & CEO, Mohenis Services
“Stephen McGhee has worked with our company for many years.  Without fail, every seminar has inspired our team and pushed our company to a new level.  The difference between Steve and other consultants is his keen ability to involve our team in realistic discussions regarding personal and business growth.  The real success in his work occurs away from our session, back in our daily lives as the insight he gives us is practical, useful and meaningful.”   

David Firth
CEO
“Stephen is an extraordinarily insightful, loving, inspirational and results-oriented coach and he has had a profound impact on all aspects of my life. If you are looking for an Upgrade in your life and/or business I cannot recommend Stephen highly enough.”

Kimberly Curtis

“Stephen McGhee is the only speaker in 10 years that received a standing ovation– we bring him back every year.”

Peter Redding

“When Stephen finished speaking you could have heard a pin drop while the audience realized something magical had just happened.”
 
Peter Felsmann
Productivity Consultant, McGhee Productivity Solutions
“Stephen is a world-class coach, supporting his clients into achieving previously unimaginable heights...even literally as he demonstrated taking a team of regular executives to the top of the highest mountain in the Americas: Mount Aconcagua in Argentina. He is also a loyal and uplifting colleague and friend, the kind of person who elevates the energy of any group he may be with. I amply recommend him as a person and as a coach to anyone interested in stretching beyond personal and professional limitations.”

Casey Gadway
Owner-Agent, American Family Insurance
“I know Stephen professionally having participated in & experienced his leadership in personal growth events. Words used to describe Stephen: articulate, wise, compassionate, creative, honest, humble, knowledgeable, insightful and modest. He has a great ability to listen and provide tangible results. I would highly recommend Stephen as he has proven to be a great friend and a successful leadership coach. For what it is worth- Stephen is also a hell of a great bump skier.”

Laren Bright
Lead Consultant
“There were two things that impressed me about Stephen. One is that he really walks his talk. He demonstrated, often in pretty dramatic ways, that he followed his own advice. The other was that he was highly perceptive concerning what was going on with me and the company I worked for, and for which he was consulting. He pointed out something to me that was right on the head and has had a lasting positive impact on me and the choices I make. I appreciate Stephen and the work he has done with and for me.”

Michael Galli
VP Sales, EMX Controls
“Stephen McGhee has produced amazing results in my personal and professional lives. I would not be where I am today without his assistance. If you are ready to live the life you want and deserve, I encourage you to contact Stephen.”

Gilbert Greer
CEO, Capital Group
“I met Stephen about 5 years ago in conjunction with a mastermind group he and I were a part of and we had an incredible connection. I find him to be extremely insightful and perceptive. He is such a great people person and I have recommended him to several of my acquaintances as a coach and mentor. I consider him one of the most outstanding individuals that I know.”

Tom LoRontondo
Core Matters Coaching
"I’ve been a professional life coach for nearly ten years and consider myself very skilled. I hired Stephen McGhee to help me move my practice to a new level. Although my expectations were high, I was not prepared for what I encountered! It has been one of the best life and business decisions I’ve ever made. His gifts of passion, purpose, vision, and commitment are extraordinary. He is deeply dedicated to his client’s goals. His coaching style is creative, focused, and very applicable in life. He helps you grow from the inside out. I highly recommend Stephen to anyone who is ready to radically expand their horizons."

“Transformative!  Being in the coaching school with Stephen has been a huge game changer for my coaching practice and has altered completely the way we do our business. His coaching of me was beautifully orchestrated with a balance between learning and action. He also held me accountable to my biggest financial dreams and has clearly demonstrated that everything matters.”

Leslie Hilton

“The School came into my life at just the right time.  I was ready to push my business to an ambitious new level, but without the tools.  Stephen gave me the tools and his presence, which was inspiring and opened new possibilities. Thanks, Stephen!”
