Praise From Colleagues … (We’re So Honored!)

michele-henkle-irelanI have known Dolly for 18 years.  Over the years we have studied together, partnered in a business together and played together.  Dolly is one of the most intelligent women I know. With that could come ego, righteousness and pride. But such is not the case with Dolly. She is a delight to all who meet her.

Her belief in being a responsible human being, living at choice, not just for herself but for the planet, is demonstrated daily as she lives her life personally and professionally.

Her career history, ICU nurse, lawyer (with her own firm), and coach and her belief in continuous learning and discovery, plus her incredible memory, provides her with cadre of skills with which to support her clients in creating a life in which they will thrive.

Her generosity of spirit is evident in her willingness to share her knowledge and expertise with anyone within earshot and specifically with her clients and within the organizations to which she belongs. Dolly does not just sit on the side lines, but is committed to making a contribution and difference.

Dolly’s legacy coaching supports individuals in determining and developing an action plan so that they too will leave more than their name and/or money.  When they depart this world, they will have contributed in their own unique way, based on their values and what is important to them.  This isn’t about money this is about contribution.  Dolly is a master coach in this arena.

Anyone who has the opportunity to collaborate with Dolly in any capacity, business alliance, client or friend will come away a more evolved human being for the time spent with her.

I would recommend no one pass up the opportunity to play with Dolly in what ever life domain presents itself.  You will be giving yourself and your life a gift.

davidmatthewpriorI have worked extensively with Dolly Garlo in a shared leadership capacity for a large global non-profit organization.  In addition to being a consummate, ethically-centered coaching professional, she has the gift of pioneering and realizing a vision through spontaneous insight, comprehensive assessment, respectful consideration and absolute commitment to the task at hand.  Dolly has served me on numerous occasions as a professional sounding board that provided me the integrity grounding that I needed to be powerfully in action.

From the moment we met, Dolly Garlo has been a friend and colleague I can count on for sound advice and on-point feedback.  She is a unique combination of keen intelligence, unimpeachable ethics, multiple expertises, authenticity, generosity, heart and complete devotion to the truth.  She challenges me to raise the bar of my own output ever higher.  She is compassionately forthright — I can always count on her to be honest; even if it isn’t what I want to or am hoping to hear, she tells me what I need to know in order to grow.

nancy-gerberI’ve worked closely with Dolly for nearly three years co-chairing a committee for the International Coach Federation.  She has a deep understanding of how organizations function best, and the ability to envision and create systems that deliver optimal results.  She also understands the value of gathering a great team and knows how to get everyone working together to create a whole that is truly greater than the sum of its parts.

Partnering with Dolly has been one of the most significant and stimulating personal and professional relationships I’ve ever had.
