Bio
Kate Wolfe
Melissa Dunkley is a no nonsense coach. While her approach to coaching is empathetic and kind, she is direct and to the point, which I appreciate. I lead a team of 8 people and Melissa is helping me to be the best version of myself I can be for my team and my organization (and myself!). She utilizes tools, questions, and her vast corporate knowledge to improve my leadership skills and challenge me. As an Executive Coach myself (KRATOS.ca), I believe in the benefits of utilizing a coach - the right coach - and Melissa fits the bill. I recommend Melissa as an Executive Coach. It is a privilege to know and work with her. If you have any doubts, or are putting this on the back burner, don't. Feel free to reach out to me for a conversational reference.

Melissa was my executive coach for approximately. I was a senior executive at a financial institution here in Alberta at the time. I found her very easy to work with. However, she held me accountable for results as we worked together to establish my areas of improvement and timelines for achieving this improvement. She helped me immensely. I would have no hesitation in recommended her for an executive coaching role. Jim McKillop
