MEET MANUEL

Professional Certified Coach (PCC)
Certified Positive Intelligence Coach (CPQC)
Certified Project Manager Professional (PMP)

My many years as a consultant have given me the opportunity to work in both public and private sectors, gaining meaningful experience in a variety of industries such as health, aeronautics, IT, telecommunications, and law.

A commonality across all the organizations I partner with is that they are full of leaders who want to contribute more and use their talents more purposefully.

That’s why, as a Professional Certified Business Coach - PCC, I strive to empower managers and executives who feel trapped in their current setting to picture a future where they dare to exceed their potential.

Leveraging formal coaching training and diverse corporate experience, I support leaders in boosting their skills, credibility, and courage for a life ridden with regrets.

With respect, empathy and honesty, I partner with you to explore and challenge your current perception of your discomfort. Then I leverage your raised awareness to help you define your future in which your purpose and values align.  As your coach, I use my listening skills and genuine interest in your experience to provide you with the peaceful and safe space needed for meaningful introspection.

How I see myself

  • Manuel became my coach as I was transitioning between jobs, going back into the consulting world. It was a time where I needed someone to listen to all the things swirling in my head and help me navigate the path forward.

    - Senior Health Consultant, TELUS

  • As a high-achieving IT professional, I came to Manuel looking for guidance to help me define what I wanted to pursue next and what kind of work would fulfill me in the next phase of my career.

    - Senior Business Systems Analyst/Product Owner

  • As a mom who has a busy life at work, also working 9 to 6 every day and then having to manage my kids and extracurricular actives and homework, I think it’s been a great investment of my time. Time is the one thing I have the least of and want to have more of, but the one hour sessions that I have help me value all the other hours.

    - Senior Product Manager

  • Continuous learning is something I strive for. When the opportunity came about to work with Dare to Exceed Coaching, it was a quick yes.
