Trajectify's coaches and advisors have more than 225 years combined business experience. We've been in the same trenches as our clients. Our team has started companies and worked for big corporations. We know how to grow - revenues, profits, leaders, teams, products, services. We've been in most types of executive functions including operations, finance, sales and marketing, technology. Learn more about our team.
Unlike most other coaches, we have recently faced, or are even currently facing, many of the very same challenges and opportunities as our clients. This allows us to sit shoulder to shoulder with a leader and coach with empathy. Our stories are relevant, our prescriptions are contemporary, and our knowledge is topical. And like any good coach, we know how to listen, to ask the right questions, and to bring an unemotional and outside-in perspective.
