I was a member of one of Sarah’s Mastermind groups & I’m already enrolled in From Manager to Leader!! The biggest result for me has been the consistency it put back in my brain. I have all the drive and passion but if I was not being consistent (which was going on A LOT) I wasn’t getting any further in my goals. I was stuck in a leadership loop and not making any progress with my goalsetting and team building. Taking the Mastermind and coaching sessions with Sarah helped to refocus where I NEEDED to be and helped me get back on the success track. I work hard to live my life INTENTIONALLY, both at work and at home. She has reminded me that I have to take a little “Me” time as well as look out for the best interest of my hotel and the team that has the passion as I do. In the time during the mastermind series, I was told by a team member that I brought the “Cohen Culture” to the hotel, and that was the biggest compliment I could receive from one of my team. She said she noticed a difference in my leadership during and after my time with Sarah.
Sarah knows our industry and people. She is always there for a pick me up when I have strayed (and, it does happen, sometimes more often than I like to admit) from my goals. She holds me accountable and that is a necessity for me! I will make one suggestion, if you are on the fence about working with Sarah, grab someone from your inner circle to do it with you! The more you put your goals and weaknesses out for those to help you, the more successful you will be!

I took the 21 Laws of Leadership from Sarah and it was an amazing class. She was able to get me to think about me, set goals and be intentional about what I do each day. I recently signed several of my Managers up for the Manager to Leader class that Sarah will be offering this fall. Sarah is positive, full of energy and has great insight. I admire her tenacity to build her business! Sarah is a true leader that I admire and look forward to working more with in the future!

I received an amazing opportunity to take the “From Manager to Leader” course with Sarah Pittson in September 2016 and I must say, the wealth of knowledge and resources Sarah provides you with is astounding! Sarah puts her heart soul into each lesson, module, and discussion. As managers, we all get stuck in that typical “Management Mentality” but to be an effective manager you must first go back to the basics and take a good look at what being a GOOD manager truly entails; and for me applying the “Leadership” aspect was a huge breakthrough in the way I structure my daily routine with my team as well as my daily personal life. Thank you so much for all you do Sarah I can’t wait to take your next course on applying the 21 Laws of Leadership!
Sarah Pittson - you are an amazing woman and leader!! Thank you for taking months to invest into our mastermind. What a blessing this training has been for me both personally and professionally. You are an amazing coach and you have so much wisdom and insight to offer people. It is clear you were made for this!! Thank you for challenging us to go deeper and bigger; for teaching us the importance of leadership and for showing us how we can implement it in our lives. Thank you isn't enough. I really appreciate and respect you!! I know this class has made a lasting impact on me and I am excited to continually grow in these areas.

Sarah is an exceptional leader and coach. I originally met her in the Hotel industry where her strong team leadership ability flourished. Sarah is professional, intentional, and someone who leads by example. She is a true leader who takes time to teach and show how something is done verses telling you how to do it. She helps teams and individuals feel empowered and capable, as she establishes a vision and direction towards success. More recently she facilitated a John Maxwell leadership course and it was incredible! I lead a virtual team of over 400 and the leadership training I received through Sarah helped me take my business and team to the next level. She worked with me 1:1 to discuss how I can be a more effective leader and business owner. Her training was a blessing both personally and professionally. She is a natural coach, full of wisdom and insight to offer people. It is clear she was made for this!! She challenged us to go deeper and bigger. She taught us the importance of leadership and showed us how we can implement it in our lives. I appreciate and respect her ability to tailor her expertise and leadership training to individual needs. She helped me change my manager mentality to a leader mentality. I left with techniques and ideas to create a better culture for my team, tools that will help me develop leaders, create team unity and establish a clear focus. Her class made a lasting impact on me and I am excited to continually implement the new leadership tools she taught us. She comes highly recommended from me.

You inspire me to release the me I know I am. I am often quiet during class but I assure you I am soaking it all up & processing everything! I may not say much but when I do I want it to be something that counts! Thank you so much for dedicating the 12 weeks to our Mastermind Study Group. Working with you 1:1 last week gave me so much I can use that will benefit my team AND my family! I am so thankful for the tools, focus and confidence I've gained since working with you! I have already seen a change in my life and I dream of the word "INTENTIONAL"!!! I know this year of growth has set me on the path to become the person & leader I was born to be- a better and stronger version of me with the drive, focus, and ability to achieve my vision. I know you will argue with me but this change started because of you!!! Thank you, Sarah!!!

Let this testimonial act as a beacon of light for those seeking to not only motivate but improve their lifestyle and way of thinking, for themselves and those around them. I recently finished From Manager to Leader Masterclass facilitated by Sarah Pittson. This class has completely changed my perception of what it means to lead and I know I am a completely different professional because of it. Sarah did an outstanding job of being available, giving clear directive on motivational topics, letting the class dictate the pace of learning and most importantly inspiring Managers to become Leaders. By choosing to take this class you will without a doubt, learn many things you did not know about yourself, gain the skills and knowledge for yourself and others to achieve success and carry with you the power of perception and how to use it to make the right decisions. There is so much more to gain and I highly encourage anyone in a capacity of overseeing others personal or professional to take this class. I cannot commend Sarah Pittson enough for giving me the tools for success while maintaining a fun, organized and professional setting to learn in. The value of knowing what you value is worth it alone and that is just the beginning.
