Jay Patel, Executive Director at Day Lewis:
"I’ve been receiving coaching from Rita for over four years now and the results have been holistic and transformational. I’ve got a much better understanding of my own persona, and what drives me as well as my personal blind spots. This has resulted in significant improvements in my professional and personal life. Rita coached me to articulate the future vision for our family-owned pharmacy chain much of which has been successfully executed. Essentially, she has helped me become a better CEO, husband and father, for which I will always be grateful."
