client testimonials

Laura Yoch VP of Operations, Praying Pelican Missions

I stepped into the role of VP of Operations in the fall of 2021. Our model of operations pre-pandemic looked very different post-pandemic, which provided me and our organization both challenges and opportunities to work through. I was acutely aware that blind spots I might have in my own leadership could pose a hindrance to the next innovation that our organization needed. While I work in a highly collaborative environment, we recognized an opportunity to leverage outside tools, rather than relying solely on the resources we had always drawn from. I have immensely enjoyed working with Austin over the past year! The moments where he and I would pause and notice items as I’m working towards goals don’t stop once our sessions are over. They are incorporated into meetings and one-on-one conversations that then ripple through the entire organization. Specifically, our team is leaning into and appreciating the “gift of feedback” from and for one another as we acknowledge our mission and the alignment we have with one another in that. If you feel limited by your current resources, I highly encourage you reach out to Novus Global.

David Hamilton Team Director

His coaching has helped me set and pursue goals that are bigger and more impactful than I would have imagined on my own. Austin brings energy, focus, and a deep commitment to every session, helping me grow not only in my work but also as a father and leader. The accountability and insight he provides have opened up new levels of effectiveness in both my mission and personal life. I highly encourage you to reach out to Austin or Novus Global to find a coach. They will show you what you are capable of – not only show you, but help you get there.
