After LIFE Training, our MBA and Undergraduate students are matched with a personal development coach to maximize their potential. This program is designed to help students develop personal and professional goals and pave the way to achieve them. A few students were asked to share their experiences and benefits:

“Coaching has definitely helped me balance my harshness on myself and understanding that it’s okay for things not to go perfect all the time. It’s also helped me a lot when it comes to time management. I can optimize my time better, I procrastinate less, and I’m more comfortable with flexibility. It’s helped me understand that pushing myself too much can be counterproductive. It’s helped me with grief and accepting my feelings. I now have a better perception of my goals that help me improve myself rather than focusing on meeting the expectations of others”. – Letizia Gallo 

“I’ve done coaching through CIMBA before when I was in undergrad, and I was excited to get back into it because I developed a love for the growth you can achieve by setting goals and going through the structural columns that CIMBA has set up. I think this time around, it’s been nice to center my goals around not only personal growth, but what I hope to accomplish in my future, whether that’s career-oriented or bettering the world and those around me. Being able to do it now in a longer time period rather than a semester, I have seen the improvements, and I have been able to practice what I discuss in my coaching sessions through my classes and through traveling. To see how the goal, I set in September has evolved into another goal now that I’m 7 months in is really the coolest part. I think coaching is beneficial to everyone, and you get out what you put into it. There’s always room for personal development”. – Genna Foster

“I came to CIMBA with a rough outline of what I envisioned for my life and my career, but I didn’t understand my purpose. Since LIFE and personal coaching sessions, that vision has changed extraordinarily for the better. I’ve discovered my true Being and set goals that align with who I am. I feel a sense of clarity. I have the skills, tools, and structure to achieve those goals and all other objectives I develop along the way. I know my purpose, and I’m positioned to carry it out”. – Marcella Williams

“I found benefit in the fact that I have been able to work on myself with my coach, but I can see the result when I am in a team. I basically practice with my coach and perform on the “game” when I am with my team”. – Gavin Magee

“I have done coaching in the past but have never had the time to reflect on the long-term benefits and visualize future goals. The coaching we have received with CIMBA has been therapeutic in the sense that it has allowed me to reflect on not only my past actions and how they have allowed me to be where I am but also how they will shape my future. During the sessions with my coach, Siena, I have had the opportunity to set goals and visualize how I will be able to accomplish them. I would say that the coaching sessions are one of the most attractive aspects from this program”. – Uriel Martinez
