His steady calm coupled with a piercing ability to draw truthful observations helped me let go of difficult attachments as I made tough decisions.

His coaching helped me find greater confidence and clarity through difficulty.”

“Thirteen years ago, Andy Satter opened my eyes to a new way of understanding, empathizing with, and communicating with my clients; my work with him ultimately helped reshape how I approach my work. Fast forward to the onset of the pandemic when we had to work 100% virtually. Andy was the first person I thought of to coach our top 100 global account managers to apply neuroscience-based communication skills to understand, and build rapport and trust with their clients. The result has been tremendous. Our team has learned valuable strategies to strengthen client relationships, and uncover new growth.”
