All I can say is “Wow”. I’m now experiencing the most calm, peace, and confidence I’ve ever felt, I just don’t react in the same way. I’ve upleveled within weeks. In the 7 months I’ve been coaching with Sharon my book of business went from $30 million to $81 million.

Jhaymee Tynan, Egon Zehnder

Working with you was the best decision ever. I got the top job and never could have gotten here without you. I was told I created credibility and independence that people weren’t aware of, and the Executive Team was impressed. I feel rock solid as a confident leader.

Melanie Lewis, Encompass Health

I could not have taken my company to the next level without the support and advice of Dr. Sharon Melnick. She is brilliant and full of power and strength. She is the real deal and second to none. Her advice was a game changer for me in my business and my life.

Kellyann Petrucci, CEO and NYT Bestselling Author

Game-changing. I came to you doubting myself and feeling stuck in my boss’s perception of me. Now I have the most confidence I’ve had in my career: I take control in our management team meetings and lead the decision making. My CEO looks to me as his key influencer. I feel unleashed.

Brenda G, Tech Company

I built a new inner voice and made practical changes in my behavior. Now it’s a whole different picture: I’m leading our function to be the most successful service line in our region, I developed a very influential position in my firm, and have the most confidence I’ve ever had in my professional career.

Karen, Managing Partner, PwC

My self-confidence has quadrupled, and it’s shocking how ‘in my power’ I am. I came out ahead in the power struggle and have a new level of respect from my partners. I’ve led the team to bring in new projects and grown the business beyond expectations. Life-changing.

Tina, Wells Fargo

I wouldn’t be in the successful position I am today without your coaching. I was in a difficult situation with a narcissistic boss. You taught me how to shift out of the victim role and work with him in a positive manner. I earned $100k more in the 3 months we worked together, and now I’m getting a promotion.

Senior Woman Leader, IBM

I was pigeon-holed in my role for 10 years, and within only one month I changed the perception my boss and boss’s boss had of me. I’ve expanded my role, am more fulfilled, and am helping to shape the way our company transforms for the future. Sharon Melnick is phenomenal at what she does.

J.F., Biotech Company

A spectacular experience. You immediately grasp what is going on at a deeper level and have an arsenal of painless, quick, and powerful strategies to get a person unstuck and feeling confident, to see the situation clearly and be ‘in their power’. Every single time we talk it’s extremely productive.

Judy M., Attorney

Your process is life-altering at the foundation, and the transformation happens fast. It makes you much more effective in your job, reduces your stress, and brings you happiness and satisfaction. It’s not a band-aid, everything has changed for me and the changes get better over time. The ROI is huge.

Ranaan Miller, CTO, Sionex Corp

You helped me stop being a victim. Even though I was excluded and marginalized by my bosses, you showed me how to stop reacting emotionally and follow a game plan to get resolution. Now I am calm and powerful, and I couldn’t be happier with the role and compensation at my new company.

Sasha, Construction Industry

Sharon’s coaching methodology aligns perfectly with Sodexo’s talent development strategies. Participants exceeded expectations as they gained confidence in their voices, created next-level opportunities, and boldly displayed leadership impact. I highly recommend this turnkey solution.

Jodi Davidson, VP, Diversity & Inclusion, Sodexo

90% improvement in my ‘negative voice’ from the “Magic Bullet”. I feel a lot more calm and at peace. I was able to accept a speaking opportunity and a leadership position that I had been holding myself back from for years. I am so grateful.
