People
Personally, Matthew's unique blend of business expertise and coaching effectiveness has been quite the confidence booster towards launching and sustaining momentum on the many new growth initiatives that I have had to undertake as CEO at Insight.
Mathew brings immense energy and dedication into every conversation. Undaunted by roadblocks, he is proactive in finding a way out of sticky situations with much wisdom and caution. This has certainly helped navigate the tricky challenges that I believe every leader faces at the top.
I wholeheartedly recommend Matthew to any CEO or executive looking to unlock their full potential and drive their organization forward with confidence.
Mathew is working with me and my leadership team as an Executive Coach, helping us identify areas of improvement in leadership roles as we work on building the second line of leadership in our business scaling plans.
I recommend VentureBean’s customised proprietary Coaching approach for its simplicity yet effectiveness in leadership, people growth.
Leaving my corporate job after 25 years, I wanted to start something new. With nothing more than a good idea, I approached Mathew to help me navigate this new phase. I soon realised that the start- up journey is first about building the mindset of an entrepreneur and then working on the technical aspects. Mathew was an immense help as he patiently took on the role of a Business Coach as I was searching for more clarity on what I wanted. Once my ideas got crystallised, Mathew helped me evolve my Business Plan, strategise and implement my ideas. In addition to being a great Business Coach, Mathew is extremely motivating and encouraging and is very generous with his time and advice. I would without hesitation recommend Mathew and VentureBean.
VentureBean is one of our key learning partners for over two years that delivered the SKF Leadership Foundation, a key global program as part of our Leadership maturity model for new managers. It has been a very rich and rewarding experience for us to partner with VentureBean. Sharing of personal triumphs, trials, and tribulations across different Leadership roles in Corporates helps to connect with participants and their reality with ease.
They have a unique style of illustrating the concepts and dilemmas managers face in this program with simplicity, patience, and rare authenticity. What is more pleasurable in working with VentureBean is that they have gone beyond the contract and commercial terms, investing much more, co-owning the program in the same measure as us. That makes us feel that we are indeed working with a learning partner.
I have worked closely with Mathew over the last 6 years. I have personally benefited with his association. He was my Executive Coach. This was at a time when there were many operational issues in the ongoing global business and in parallel we were working on a major JV opportunity; this required balancing strategic thinking and at the same time taking care of the nitty-gritties of the ongoing business. Mathew helped me to put a plan in place and to crystallise my thought process. We worked on identifying blind spots and put a systematic plan to address them. He was always available and was a great sounding board when I needed it.
Mathew is a great human being and he has helped me beyond the coaching assignment. I admire the way he gives back to society through his philanthropic work. I strongly recommend Mathew.
I’ve known Mathew since 2018 when I had the privilege of being coached by him. Mathew was on board to coach the India leadership team with a view to enhance the productivity and effectiveness. Mathew is a man of few words and spares no room for providing feedback and areas for improvement. As a coach, Mathew assessed the strengths of each individual in the leadership team and would spend time to help to identify areas that would help the overall team to succeed
His strengths lie in understanding the lay of the land quickly and holding us accountable for actions with speed to drive results. He worked with me on a few areas that helped me to strengthen my influencing skills by identifying stakeholders beyond peers, who can help me in building my business further and succeed.
Mathew brings vast experience on to the table and having worked across the globe in various industries he is able to relate to the needs of business and help the leadership drive actions aligned to strategic imperatives for the organization.
I strongly recommend Mathew and VentureBean coaches to organisations and professionals looking to scale leadership competencies.
I had a 6-month journey with Mathew as my Leadership Coach as an integral part of our organisation's leadership development program. It was much needed for me as a first-time manager on how exactly to lead a team effectively and focus on balanced growth as well.
Mathew made me feel comfortable. He understood every situation during our Coaching engagement. His high energy levels encouraged me to keep the same energy and momentum in leading my team.
Mathew helped me with a structure to keep track of all data points for each of our sessions, with linkages to a critical few competencies, action items – this made it easier for me to follow-up and track progress.
Mathew as a Coach observes and makes each session interactive and introspective – highly engaging. He gives freedom to speak and brainstorm options.
I can’t forget this Coaching journey as it has helped me get a clear direction and purpose. Thankyou Mathew for all the support and keep rocking as always.
I highly recommend Mathew as a Leadership Coach.
Mathew is a very unique Executive / Leadership coach with his distinct mix of business expertise and coaching effectiveness. He is perceptive, has experience in corporate life and is able to deeply engage with the coachee to enable co-creation of plausible approaches. He has a style of gently nudging professionals / coachees to act beyond their comfort zone, identify and improve in areas with SMART goals. The approach is to focus on life in a wholesome manner (not missing the forest for the trees). I recommend Mathew strongly to any Leader or aspiring Leader who wants to find the Alpha version of him/her. Picture yourself as Federer or Djokovic who wants
I am sure Mathew's credentials will speak a lot about him, but I would recommend Mathew for more than his creds - specifically and not limited to - his attitude as a Coach towards teams and his belief in sharing knowledge and acumen. His approach to helping the CXO's and Leaders acknowledge their current standing and bringing the force together for a collective unstoppable growth is distinctive!! Using various frameworks and thought provoking questions all he did was prompt us - asking the right questions to the right people. We had all the answers all this while, but we never realised.
Mathew helped us discover and rise to our full potential as individuals, professionals and most importantly as a team, organisations.
I am grateful to have had Mathew as a coach and I would highly recommend any organisation across any business vertical looking for a program for coaching their CXO's and senior leadership.
Mathew Isac is a formidable talent as a Coach! He brings vast knowledge to business processes. He has such an incredibly unique skill set to bring to Business Coaching. As a Six Sigma Black Belt and experienced CEO he understands process management. As a Coach, he has unique insight into human nature and tapping into potential. I personally have experienced the power of Mathew's ‘unfair advantage’ as both Coach and Corporate Leader. I could not recommend him more highly.
