“Jim provided executive training to our senior faculty. He hit the mark which had an immediate, positive impact for our team at MGH.”

“Jim McKenna has been a tremendous asset to our heart and vascular institute. His ability to coach and mentor our physician leaders has been transformative to our organization. The way in which he enables our physicians to realize their potential, and then achieve that potential, is nothing short of amazing. As a physician leader in a busy health care system, I cannot devote the necessary time, nor do I have the requisite expertise, to facilitate leadership development at this level. His services have been a huge help, and I would consider them indispensable…thank you Jim!”

“Jim provided coaching for the American College of Cardiology (ACC) Board of Trustees (BOT) and for trustees individually. He strengthened our team dynamics, identified strategies for enhancing interpersonal interactions, and lead our pursuit of healthy conflict. His insights into my personal leadership strengths and opportunities for growth were immensely helpful in my role as ACC BOT member and tangentially in my role at HFHS (Henry Ford HealthSystem). Highly recommended him for individuals/team that understand the value of coaching and acknowledge latitude for development.”

“Everyone thought it went well. Kudos to you; great job with a tough group!”

“When you have executives, moved to the extent of directly, immediately reaching out to you personally to share what they are committed to doing differently, based on a roundtable session led by Jim, you know you are working with a professional. Don’t let Jim’s understated way fool you; he is dealing impactful straight talk, straight from his heart to yours. You will be absorbed into listening to what he says, and excited to follow the suggestions he invokes.”

“Many thanks to Jim McKenna for his wonderful presentation to our hospital medicine group on recognizing and addressing burnout! His depth of experience, warmth, good humor and empathy were on full display. The process helped us notice where we were doing a good job organization-wise, and where we have opportunities to support staff better/differently. We learned so much that is valuable to our group and our leadership, plus had a bit of fun and enjoyed ourselves. During the interactive workshop, the participants’ collegiality came out often, which we recognize as a vital part of our future wellness success.“
