Video Transcript:
Todd paved his way from humble beginnings, as the first member of his family to attend college. He pursued a path in higher education and a corporate career.
Upon graduating from NYU,
Todd held several positions where he gained invaluable experience before he began his career at Eileen Fisher.
"While self-employed, I was involved in the full software development lifecycle. I would understand the needs of the business, propose solutions, and then I would build it, test it, document it, deliver it and support it.
This end-to-end experience that I acquired as a contractor became the cornerstone
for the next leg of my career."
He joined the company at a junior level in IT, Todd used everything he had learned as a consultant to solve the business challenges he faced in his corporate role. Over the course of 16 years at the company, Todd was promoted five times, grew the IT team from 25 employees to over 50, and became the global head of IT.
"I enjoyed a lot of success and learned a vast amount, not just about business, but about change and transformation. I really began to put emphasis and focus on leadership and developing people. I wanted to maximize the people that I had for the benefit of the company, but I also wanted to support each individual's needs, their interests, their growth opportunities, while also challenging them and setting expectations."
Reaching the pinnacle of his corporate career was an accomplishment he was proud of. And over the last few years, Todd decided he was ready for a big change. He decided to become an executive coach, leveraging his business experience, the valuable executive coaching he had received at Eileen Fisher, and the growth he had achieved through personal therapy.
Making a full commitment to his new career venture, Todd took professional training and gained certification. He is now a Certified Professional Coach (CPC), an Energy Leadership Index Master Practitioner (ELI-MP), and a Member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF).
