Testimonials
Our logo was our first testimonial
Alessandro Canu, a talented Creative Director participated in one of Myriam Callegarin‘s first Group Coaching Programs in 2008. Alessandro had never experienced coaching before. After completion of the program, he offered Myriam his testimonial: the logo as his own description of coaching with her. Myriam loved it because it captured the essence of her values and mission in her work, so it became her logo.

Further testimonials
“The very first coaching session I had with Myriam really changed my life and opened the door to experiences and developments I literally only had dreamt about before. Moreover, I am especially thankful for Myriam’s practical tips and help in the form of ready-to-use templates, checklists and articles. Also, I especially enjoyed the session in which we talked about work-life-balance.
Myriam is a very good listener and is able to listen with all senses. She gives structure to even the most confusing statements I as a coachee make, and picks up the real issues behind those statements. Finding suitable solutions within a short time is another amazing strength, as well as her very good knowledge of sales and marketing issues.
My business plan has been growing almost on its own and I am impressed about how far I have come in the last couple of months. And this was only possible because of Myriams professional guidance.
Myriam has met my expectations completely and has, moreover, been very supportive and helpful even with issues that had risen “on the side” of the actual coaching purpose. Thank you, Myriam.”

“The one-day workshop was perfect for me to clarify what is really important to me. I realized that things I saw as a deficit are a benefit in fact.”
• T.L., Sales Executive at Daimler AG, Stuttgart (Germany)
“When I first started working with Myriam I felt like a clogged sink, barely any movement at all. Now everything is flowing like water.
I wanted to learn how to build my own coaching business. I had no business building experience and didn’t know where to begin. I had a lot of thoughts and ideas of what I wanted. I even had some drafts of what I wanted for my business, but everything was on paper and in my head. I was overwhelmed by it all and wasn’t sure what direction I needed to go in.
In the ‘One Month in Action Program’ Myriam helped me move from a non-productive partnership, get my website together and figure out other services I wanted to provide to my clients when my business finally gets off the ground.
My sessions with Myriam left me feeling creative and energized. Also, days after I had thoughts and answers come up based on questions asked or things discussed during our sessions.
Myriam is a great listener, she’s intuitive, and her ability to ask the right questions based on what she was feeling about what I said and didn’t say helped a great deal.
Her question “what are you afraid of?” is what made me really think and re-evaluate my wanting to partner with someone else. That question is what made me decide to move on from the partnership and since then things have been flowing very nicely for me. Not to mention, a day later is when the real answer came up for me. A great “Aha” moment.
I would highly recommend Myriam as a coach and mentor. Working with her was truly a great experience and one I will always appreciate. Thank you!!

• Ravindra Joshi, Business Performance Consultant, Bengaluru (India)
“I was feeling stuck with my business idea, I was overwhelmed and felt that I was one step behind with all aspects of my project. I needed some clarity on where to go and how to apply my skills in a practical way.
In the One-Month in Action program Myriam helped me to focus, brought clarity and structure. Our sessions brought me a lot of insights! I appreciated a lot her ability to keep me on track, her structured approach during each session helped me to stay focused.
Myriam is a deep listener yet she is focused on the results and makes sure we are going in a right direction together. If you want to get your business idea off the ground or to simply look for some clarity in a professional field – Myriam is the one you ought to talk to!”

Although I have not been coached by her, I can tell she is a extremely valuable resource for her clients. Myriam is quite impressive!”
• William Arruda President of Reach Personal Branding

“Based on the initial session I had with Myriam, I was expecting great things. I expected that I would be able to accomplish all my goals. I now know that I made the right choice in choosing to work with her as my coach, because not only did I accomplish my goals, Myriam was EXCELLENT in supporting me to meet my expectations and then she was able to move me much further beyond those initial goals to achieve much more. Myriam is a true GEM and I believe the coaching profession will be greatly served with her as an ambassador to this great profession. Myriam has a great coaching presence and she is a fantastic listener. Her calming voice and inquisitive straight forward style serve her well in establishing trust and intimacy with her clients. I believe she has what it takes to be an outstanding coach.”

• Jacqueline Kelly deDowns

“When I realised that I needed to understand what direction to take in my career and life and how to get there, I decided to start with a coach. I met Myriam in person and chose her to be “my” coach because of her charisma and her personal professional experience. After 4 months I’m more convinced than ever that I have made the right choice, so much so that I have started recommending her to the people that are closest to me and that I value. First of all, I became aware of the challenges and obstacles that I needed to take care of or remove from my path. Then I found it very helpful to work with an action plan to achieve the goals that are important to me. Above all, I realized that I can really believe in myself. When working with Myriam I especially appreciate that she can be an anchor during “turbulence”, and that she is tenacious and professional.”

“I had the pleasure of experiencing Myriam both as a manager for international business development and as coach – she is an experienced, reliable and creative professional! Myriam possesses the rare quality of listening attentively and developing out-of-the box solutions and ideas, always focused on obtaining best possible results. Her positive approach to professional and personal life is virtually contagious!”
• Marta Traverso Project Manager & Market Entry Consultant, Berlin (Germany)
“I really enjoyed having Myriam as my coach. When we first began coaching, I wanted to work on my business ideas. However, in the first couple sessions Myriam helped me realize there were other items I needed to address that, if left unmanaged, could impede my business success. Myriam helped me devise strategies to eliminate these blockers. I appreciated her persistent and targeted questions that took me where I needed to go. Coaching with Myriam was a great experience.”
• Demetris Booth Managing Program Director at Congruent Minds, Zurich (Switzerland)
CLARITY & ACTIONS SESSIONS
“I have never been more confident and well prepared as this time. (…) Another thing was what we talked about, that I am there to interview them and not to defend myself. This was excellent! It did not take me long to figure out some well legitimate questions and it made all the difference. (…) One of the interviews did go extremely well and it was definitely my dream job. By extremely well I mean that I was able to communicate on a much higher level. (…) Since we talked I have moved back home to Stockholm and started working within Sales. Its a very nice job and I enjoy it alot. In 2010 you made a great difference for me, I truly recommend your services. ”
• Mikael Miglis, Stockholm (Sweden)
(Email messages after a Clarity & Action Session to prepare for a series of job interviews.)
“Myriam is an excellent career coach, who works highly efficiently and to the point. She was guiding the coaching session in a very clear manner, having always clear perspectives and innovative ideas. At the same time, she was highly flexible and was able to immediately adapt to new issues brought into the discussion by myself. The session we had took place in a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere and yet had an optimum of outcome for me. Although the session dates back some time, the results still have a great impact and inspiration. I know quite some coaches, but Myriam was outstanding. Definitely, this will not be last time I asked Myriam for coaching. I can highly recommend her and I am sure I am not the only one.”
• Dr. Volker Eyert Assistant Professor at University of Augsburg (Germany)
“I had the pleasure to have coaching sessions with Myriam. She helped me focus on issues and to untie the knots I was facing in my personality as well as my ideas to success. My sessions with her uncovered major obstacles that I saw disappear much more easily than I had envisaged, and some of them I was able to immediately turn to opportunities and strengths with Myriam’s creative outlook, intellectual provocation, and inspiration. I have come out of her sessions as a more focused and inspired leader, which has already brought me success. I have decided to consult Myriam for any future hurdles and creative inspiration and recommend her highly to everyone else. She is subtle and very effective.”

GROUP COACHING “Insieme per il tuo lavoro” (“Together For Your Work”)
“The main reason why I decided to participate in the course “Insieme per il tuo lavoro” was because I wanted to understand what I was maybe doing wrong during my job search, why I was still unemployed after one year, and whether it all depended on how I wrote my resume or on how I faced interviews, or on the companies I approached or on the type of work that I was looking for. Now I realize that I have a talent and competence for something totally different from what I have always tried doing and done! I am working on my personal skills and experiences, and at the age of 42 I’m exploring what I could do when I grow up! I know it may sound funny – it sounded funny to me before – but now I truly believe that we can create a new start! This has been the most helpful part of coaching so far, feeling the desire and the courage to positively start a new path based on what I would really enjoy doing! I really value Myriam’s competence and reliability, and also the big avaiability and patience to always listen to each one of us. Also, she always had the right answer or question to our enquiries and doubts. You can immediately understand that you have a person in front of you who can help you. I would definitely recommend other people to work with Myriam. From what other participants also stated, I can say that she definitely exceeded all of our expectations.”
• Stefania Ercolini Alessandria (Italy)
“I decided to work with Myriam as a participant in the project “Insieme per il tuo lavoro” , with the objective of finding ways to promote myself in a focussed and effective way to find a job. Thanks to coaching with her I am discovering sides of me that I did not believe I had, or that I thought I had lost. And I am also re-gaining my self-esteem as well as my confidence in my abilities (and not only the work-related ones). I could define this as some sort of “re-birth”, since I am re-building my being, my personality and my potentials. Myriam is a person with big humanity, professional, goal-oriented and determined, stimulating, very prepared in her work and an excellent mediator. How could I not recommend others to work with her? Honestly I have already done so: I’ve talked about her with executives, with my brother who owns a company as well as with some partner companies that I personally know.”
