I consulted Misha when I was in the midst of changing roles. Misha was a great sounding board and helped identify key talking points to address with any prospective employer. Her business acumen, technical expertise and strong understanding of the insurtech innovation landscape was invaluable. She provided such great consultation, advice and support throughout my job change journey!

Misha has an innate ability to see the road ahead and an even stronger ability to help you see it yourself. Many have coached me throughout my career, and Misha tops the charts for me in every way. She guides you effortlessly, creates conversation around tough topics, and lays out options in a way that demystifies the mess and chaos that often comes with entrepreneurship and leadership. It's a privilege to see your potential through her eyes, and I highly recommend her to anyone in a leadership or entrepreneurship journey.

GSD Factor provided critical career coaching as I transitioned into a new role in a new industry. My coaches’ wisdom, kindness, and vast professional backgrounds across several industries created the perfect recipe for my success. I received feedback on how to position myself for my new role, how to leave my current role, and how to start this new chapter with a solid foundation. My GSD Factor coaches always listened to my goals rather than trying to mold me to their perspective. Their constant support during my transition has been invaluable.

Misha has afforded me the space, the perspective, and the tools to better define and refine who I am, who I want to be, and what that means for my career portfolio

As a Executive Director of a new Nonprofit organization, Misha’s consulting was extremely beneficial in the early days as we were building our foundation including the board, strategy, and navigating the headwinds that come with being an entrepreneurial nonprofit. Additionally she coached the co-founder and myself as we navigated the different hats and responsibilities and the interactions that came with that.

Misha brings to the table ideas and thoughts but listens first. Even in moments when she doesn’t agree with you she will professionally and respectfully challenge you on the thought or approach to make sure you are dreaming big and thinking about it objectively and support your decision, whatever it ends up being. She equips our team with tools that they can leverage and adapt in many scenarios so you are truly feeling empowered and confident in the decisions that you are making.
