I was lucky to encounter Adria Trowhill when she hosted the Annual GTA:ICF conference a number of years ago with Meg Wheatley. On first encounter I found that there was an immediate quality to her that made her special. She is authentic, she rolls with the punches and she is in her own way quietly confident and outwardly visible. She is an excellent role model for the coaching profession in Canada, the USA and beyond. For me, Adria Trowhill defines what character is. She consistently demonstrates compassion for and connectedness to others. She is a person who has an adventurous spirit in her along with the ability to give freely. She is an amazing team coach who shares her Living Systems Approach™ with other coaches, like myself who are interested in team coaching.
I met Adria Trowhill through the Adler Faculty of Professional Coaching Practicum program where she was both a Group Mentor coach and co-facilitator of the in-class/laboratory component of the program. In addition, I had the good fortune of having Adria Trowhill as my program shepherd through which I received rich coaching from her over an eight month period. Adria is a fantastic leader and demonstrates mastery in coaching. Her authentic approach and strong intuition help build trust and credibility quickly. Her ability to provide direct communication is wonderfully balanced by the care and passion she demonstrates. Adria Trowhill graciously shares her knowledge and has an uncanny insight to quickly and effectively assess and support any coaching situation. Adria Trowhill has had a profound impact on me as a coach. Her support has helped me become a more authentic individual. I would gladly recommend Adria to anyone seeking the expertise of a highly effective coach.
Before I met Adria Trowhill, I thought that I knew what coaching was. As a manager in a multinational organization I benefited from numerous training sessions, coaching clinics and have done mentoring and coaching for many years. Everything changed for me when I signed for a Foundation Course at Adler International School of Coaching and when I met Adria. Adria has introduced me to the heart and art of coaching which I have never known before. Her coaching style is best described as “magic”. It is based on hard core coaching principals and theory and delivered flawlessly. After two years being under her spell I continue to learn from her and have fun.
I was Adria’s coach for a couple of years, and she and I are now friends and colleagues. Adria Trowhill is a true pioneer of our field. To me, she represents the best in leadership and in the ‘being’ of a coach, that a coach can be. She is as much a coach in the way she ‘shows up’ in her work and life, as she is in how skilled and talented she is.
Adria Trowhill is one of the most gifted coaches I know and her mastery of all things coaching makes her a true expert in our domain. She is a global thought leader that is personally a superior coach, facilitator and trainer. I consider her one of the most important partners to our company at Tilt365 and we include her perspective in all of our decisions regarding our practitioner community. Her perspectives are thought-provoking, innovative and persuasive! I am so glad to have a good colleague like her as a friend as well.
“Coaching has given me skills that have made a difference in both my professional and personal life. The impact has been real and noticeable.”
“Looking back, one of the greatest successes was in getting the Canadian leadership team aligned. Before the team coaching started, none of the team members had an understanding of the issues and problems faced by the other members. The team coaching gave us collective understanding of the organization and each others’ issues, and created support and buy-in.”
“Adria Trowhill has worked with me many times over the years to not only build my leadership skills, but to elevate my entire team (direct reports and extended team) to a new level of efficiency and effectiveness in the pharmaceutical industry. She works equally well one on one, with small leadership teams (5-7) or entire departments (75 or more). She provides challenging propositions to take you and your team to the next level. Her style is one of coaching/teaming to bring out the best in your leadership skills by eliminating your weaknesses and further strengthening what you are best at. She will challenge you at every turn to insure you get to where you want to be. She gets results; she is very expert in her field and you can trust her to give you what you need to succeed. Adria Trowhill helped me build a world class R&D team where resources were limiting and time was of the essence. For me, she was able to get me out of the box and find innovative solutions and move my team forward quickly and very effectively. Adria Trowhill has the utmost in professionalism and makes adjustments as required to get the results you are looking for. I highly recommend engaging Adria Trowhill for a variety of challenges.
