What do people who’ve worked with Aram say….
Aram is a warm, compassionate executive coach who creates space for creativity and possibility while also softly holding boundaries for action and accountability. He’s as eager to learn and grow as his coachees and his humility, humor and heart is what makes him authentic coach.

In Aram’s role as Senior Leadership Instructor at PG&E, I’ve relied on Aram several times to facilitate my 80+ member all hands meetings. He does a great job engaging the team and leading us through exercises that provide value. Plus, he’s a pleasure to work with.

Aram has been a tremendous support in coaching me to become more in tune with my natural style and how that can help me excel in the workplace. His coaching includes lots of humor, a recognition of the personal context beyond work and straight talk. He is more than generous in giving his time but also intention to ensure he is providing support that sustains and motivates progress. By integrating a style assessment as the foundation of our work, he brings a layer of data-driven objectivity to optimizing performance. Regardless, his interest is consistently in bringing out the best in his client and that includes helping his client discover a path that is closest to his or her natural style.

Aram is an exceptional leadership coach. Aram helped put together a first-time, two day leadership program focused on high-performing teams for my group. From the beginning of our engagement, I was distinctly impressed with his inclination to listen first and his ability to ask very insightful questions to understand our needs before proposing changes. He willingly spent days and hours working with me individually creating the pedagogy of the event. During the event, as well, his Socratic approach helped get the team involved more, bringing more topics up for discussion. The team, with over 100 years of collective leadership experience, felt very enthusiastic about the program, but the real differentiator is the fact that the team was able to internalize the topics we discussed and are already making tremendous progress on the changes we agreed to. I credit Aram for that, a 100%.

I was lucky enough to have Aram as an instructor for three management courses over a 14-month period. He is one of the most effective instructors I’ve ever had, probably due to his willingness to challenge and be challenged. His style seems to be adaptable to any personality and this allows him to connect in an uncommon fashion. I gained real professional benefit from being in his courses and I would not hesitate to take another class with him or engage him to teach my team.

I had the pleasure of having Aram as my instructor several times at PG&E’s Leadership Academy. He is a great instructor that really shows sincere interest in his students and participants. Aram makes time fly in class as he keeps the students engaged and thinking. He has great listening skills to boot! Highly recommended.

Aram was an instructor who taught a week-long leadership course I attended. He was a dynamic speaker who engaged the audience at all times. He was thoughtful and insightful, providing valuable feedback to help me improve my leadership style. And he had a sense of humor to keep things light when needed. I highly recommend him as an instructor.
