"Elaine made a major difference in the way I approach my personal and professional lives. She made what I already knew to be good practices even more valuable and easy to do. She has a firm yet calm approach that won me over. This was no easy task in that I had two bad experiences with executive coaches and was initially a resistant student. If you have the blessing to be in Elaine's presence, do yourself a real favor and get to know her!"

Executive Coach, Business Mentor & Group Facilitator
"I've known Elaine for over twenty years. She was my first executive coach and made a huge positive difference at a critical time in my career. Since then we have been colleagues who refer to one another through Vistage and other executive coaching. Elaine has worked with my Vistage CEO members and always done a spectacular job. Elaine has the highest level of integrity and dedication to being of service. I can't say enough about the value obtained from working with Elaine!"

"Elaine Morris has been a source of training, leadership and coaching for me for almost 25 years. We first met in the mid-'80's when we were both involved in a special type of training and personal development. Spread over these many years, she has lead personal development and team-building sessions of all types for my teams, but most valuable have been her one-on-one coaching sessions wherein she has delivered resolution, results and spot-on advice of all types. Personally, professionally and morally, they do not come any better than Elaine Morris. Whatever it is that is next in my life or career, Elaine will be a vital and most appreciated part of the picture."

"I have had the pleasure of knowing Elaine for over 10 years. My company hired her several years ago to conduct a professional training seminar for a group of our leaders. Her course development was strong and her facilitation was exactly what we needed. She presented a course on emotional intelligence for leaders and exceeded our expectations. Since that time, I've attended several of Elaine's training programs and I've been impressed every time by her blend of sound business aptitude and practical leadership tips. I would recommend hiring Elaine for consulting/training/course development anytime."
Trish Thompson, SPHR, SHRM-SCP
Vice President, HR Partner at Mr. Cooper
"Elaine is gifted with the skill set to dive into any challenging professional situation, engage the entire team in solution development, and make sure everyone walks away with a clear plan of action to promote positive growth. Executive coaching with Elaine helped form my leadership style and skill set early in my career which has served me very well over the last decade. I not only thank her, but will forever be thankful for the leadership of my company who went out on a limb 10 years ago to invest in me. Elaine is the cream of the crop in her industry. She delivers! I highly recommend Elaine for team building, strategy development and executive coaching."

"Elaine is in my personal hall of fame for my life. She challenged and encouraged me to get out of my comfort zone. As my personal coach she lead me to the realization that no dream is too big or too hard. Do it one step at a time with excellence ... and we agreed to leave the results to God. The results have been amazing! Thank you Elaine for using your gift of coaching to change my life forever"

"I had the privilege and pleasure of working with Elaine Morris for two years. Elaine coached me in the role of Corporate Controller at PMFG, Inc. The opportunity of working with Elaine was one of the most beneficial and rewarding experiences in my life. She has the knowledge, skills, tools, and experience that provided a growth oriented opportunity benefiting both the individual and the company. My only disappointment is that I did not meet her earlier."

"With her "can do" attitude and broad experience, Elaine is an extremely motivating and effective business consultant and coach.

Take the Plunge into 2025!
This morning, as the crisp January air greeted the shores of Seabrook Island, SC, I joined my Turtle Patrol teammates for a tradition I'd never attempted before: the polar bear plunge. That's right—I ran into the Atlantic Ocean on New Year's Day. For the first time. On purpose.

How to Host a Retreat That Actually Works
There’s a certain magic that happens when you get your leadership team off-site—and no, I’m not talking about the post-dinner karaoke (though that can be magical). I’m talking about the kind of magic that builds trust, tackles thorny issues, and sets the stage for strategic leaps.

Pre-holiday Reflection
Wasn’t it just January? One moment we’re setting ambitious goals, and the next, we’re Googling last-minute New Year’s Eve recipes (spoiler: everyone loves deviled eggs). You may be feeling exhausted and overwhelmed by all the end of year pressures from budget deadlines to gift buying. The Grinch side of you just wants to get out town, eat too many cookies and drink a pitcher of your favorite cocktails. Take a breath. Time off is almost here.
