“Ed’s breadth and depth of knowledge in many areas make him a great asset and sounding board for almost any scenario, whether that be a complex strategic decision, short term operating decision or reaching personal or professional short and long term goals....investing in your own personal development or that of others is a gift that keeps on giving.”

“Ed has been my coach, advisor and teammate since I started my career 15 years ago. In that time, I’ve transitioned from big tech (Google) to the startup world to the entertainment world, Hollywood and book publishing. At each step, Ed has generously offered invaluable tactical, strategic and personal tools to help me navigate and enjoy my unpredictable career path.

Ed has many great gifts as a coach, but what I value most is his ability to assess my personal needs and adapt quickly to new information. Ed is a patient and nonjudgmental person which makes his coaching environment safe and productive. I never feel embarrassed to make a mistake or misstep when working with Ed and he embraces (if not requires) outside the box thinking and creative problem solving.

Ed wants to see talented, determined people win.

If you’re reading this, I strongly encourage you to try a session with Ed. At worst, you will learn something new in your conversation with him and feel inspired to chase your most honest dream. At best, you will find a coach and friend for life.

“Ed has been a wonderful mentor to me over the last few years and has really helped me expand my notions of what’s possible in life. Furthermore, he provided incredible career coaching on a particularly sticky work issue I was going through, which was invaluable. As a result of working with him, I have a much better idea of not only where I want my career to go, but what I want my life to be like. Although I recognize that Ed is extremely busy, he always made time to chat and never gave the impression that I was bothering him or that my concerns were low on his list of priorities. Thanks again for all the guidance and support, Ed! ”

“Ed Bailey is an extremely smart, highly intuitive, insightful, and thoughtful coach who has his finger on the pulse and knows just how to frame conversations to get to the heart of matters. I came to Ed by way of a CEO friend who calls Ed prior to all key meetings to prep and anticipate what to expect. I spoke with Ed to prep for a big interview for a senior level job with a focus on how to answer likely interview questions and address ways to negotiate for higher comp. Ed is an excellent listener and his experience running large HR teams in Silicon Valley with frequent access to senior tech leaders makes his feedback powerful and informed. He is also fun to work with, very friendly and generous with his time. I recommend Ed with a high degree of certainty that you will walk away from your conversation feeling confident and prepared to address what’s on your mind as well as a bit more enlightened.”
