I worked with Randy closely for a year. He was instrumental in helping me navigate my way through my first year as head of a very large control function at an international investment bank. Having been promoted from within above my peers, Randy’s guidance on how to take charge and set my own tone from the top, without alienating my former peers that became my directs, was invaluable. Randy is caring, personable and has a very affable style, in contrast to his background as an Army Colonel – traits of a great leader. Randy didn’t ask me to change my natural self; rather, he taught me to play up my best natural skills and to be cognizant of my areas of potential weakness. He helped me talk myself through difficult conversations that I had to have with staff and coached me on dealing with the political environment and multiple reporting lines that I had. He gave me terrific materials to work with (sheets, books), but didn’t inundate me with it. Randy’s coaching was key to my successful 5 year tenure leading the function through the very challenging years of the financial crisis.

I am pleased to endorse Randy Chase as a Coach/Mentor. I have known Randy for seven years now and hired him as a Career Coach. He cuts right to the “chase” and gets to the heart of matter/issue and helps you deal with difficult issues and provides tools for development to enable you to move on. He has such a nice way about him that you do what he suggests because you don’t want to disappoint him, and you know that what he is suggesting is to help you. I am now at a Fortune 500 company as the #2 HR person because of him. Not a day goes by that I don’t remember what he has taught me and put it into practice. Randy can deal with any type of personality very effectively as I have seen on the Connecticut State Council of SHRM. He has a plethora of resources that he can tap into at any time which helps our State Council tremendously. I would recommend Randy as a Coach to any individual or organization.
Director, Human Resources
