Favorite Quote

"Intention is more powerful than willpower. Willpower, the power of the ego, gets results, sometimes unintended. By comparison, intention is soul power, a spiritual commitment and energy. It elicits unseen forces in service of the purpose and vision that wants to come through us and through our leadership.”– The War of Art by Steven Pressfield

Pressfield captures the truth that we have so much power to create the change we desire. Tapping into our “Soul power” connects us to the forces of positivity and providence.

“When Rob Williams walks into the room, the energy changes. He brings the best out of people through a conscious balance of encouragement, challenge, curiosity, and when needed, a dose of humor. Rob is not your typical ‘executive coach.’ He’s an experienced business minded leader who has been in your seat. He sees the patterns, he knows people, and he won’t let you settle for mediocre. Don’t work with Rob until you are ready to make real progress and execute. He’s dynamite!”
