Interests
Recommendations
Cathy is highly effective as an Executive Coach and her business name is fitting. Cathy's straightforwardness, creative analogies, personal engagement, and expertise were incredibly impactful. I gained insight and perspective and continue to apply it daily. Areas that were previously challenging for me, I now approach with considerably more confidence and ease and I openly link this success to my experience with "Perspective In Action". (Manager, Public Sector)

A great coach is like a great book... a source of inspiration and insight that you want to come back to over and over. Cathy Shaughnessy is indeed a great coach and I have had the priviledge of coming back to her more than once over the years. She has been a source of inspiration, insight and above all clarity on issues ranging from goal setting to leadership potential to personal career advancement. I will continue to recommend Cathy to anyone seeking an executive coach; anyone I know who has made use of her services has said the same. If you have the opportunity to work with Cathy, consider yourself fortunate. (Global HR Executive)

Cathy is in a class all her own as a coach. If ever a person found their true calling in life and fulfills it with the utmost professionalism, it is Cathy. With her out-going and friendly nature she infuses humor making her client feel comfortable as she coaches you to avenues of potential and possibility. Time with Cathy is an excellent investment in yourself, I cannot recommend her more highly. (Professional Coach)
