Few groups offer leadership coaching at Benchmark’s level! Their leadership development strategies help me be a more effective leader, thinker and team player. Benchmark showed me how to lead intergenerational audiences with better communication strategies. I have greater confidence on how to build stronger stakeholder relationships and increased self awareness of how I influence others. Benchmark’s expertise in listening skills, effective communication skills and relationship building skills surpasses other executive coaching groups out there.

Benchmark Communications provides high-level leadership coaching support with some very challenging situations and best-in-class training. They continuously exceed my expectations and those of my clients. This is why I would put my name on any referral for Benchmark Communications. I have worked with many different vendors during my human resources career with The Walt Disney Company, Aramark and others. I rarely feel compelled to write about one, but Benchmark is an exception.

VICE-PRESIDENT PUBLIC AFFAIRS
CALIFORNIA MLSLISTINGS, INC.
Benchmark is unique! Their leaders have a very a unique set of skills that allows them to offer highly effective business consulting. They made a huge difference for my team at Shell Oil. They delivered great solutions in stakeholder engagement, media training and crisis communications. Their unique skills include expertise in law, media and Neuro Linguistics, the study of behavior and language patterns. This enables them to offer a broad menu of value and expertise that other firms simply cannot deliver. Also, they are great people and working with them is enjoyable!
ADITIBANERJEE
VICE PRESIDENT - HCL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
Studies prove Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is key to leadership success – the ability to identify and manage emotions. I read the best selling books on EQ, but it was not until I worked with Benchmark that I understood how to increase my EQ! Their leadership experts also equipped me with better motivation tools and leadership skills. Benchmark’s coaching style is uniquely application-oriented – actionable and relevant! Their neuro linguistics strategies are supplemented with practical role-plays to solidify new skills.

Working with Benchmark is a pleasure because I am now a much more strategic and collaborative leader!
