Gerry has added so much value to my efforts as CEO. His critical thinking and skill to know what intrinsically drives people is something I “turn on” regularly. I feel fortunate to have him as an advisor and plan to stay close to him throughout my business career.
Gerry Wenzke has been a personal and professional mentor to me, not only through our coaching sessions, but in his real-life actions. In my experience, he’s been the embodiment of “lead by example.” He has a unique knack for bridging the gap between “emotional decision making” and “intelligent decision making,” and his students benefit from his insight and experience when faced with difficult or unpopular decisions. It takes a clear head to make a good choice, and Gerry’s coaching sessions help students to hone in on the most important aspects of decisions at-hand.
