I have worked with Vickie Causa for over 20 years, and she has been an invaluable resource to me as an expert career coach.  Vickie helped guide my HR journey; early in my HR career she helped me gain confidence about working in the field and was a valuable resource as she listened and guided me while I progressed in my career objectives.  Vickie remained a trusted coach as I took time off to raise my two boys; when I was ready to return to the workforce, Vickie helped me come out of my 'imposter syndrome' and get my confidence back to return to the workforce in HR after my time away.  Her compassion for helping people achieve their career goals and guide them in their journey has made her my go-to when I need career and coaching advice.  Vickie is truly a joy to work with and the ultimate professional.  I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to gain clarity and confidence as they navigate their career journey.  ~ Jonna H., Florida

Vickie coached me to be a better professional and individual, which was tricky considering the first year we worked together  saw the begining of the COVID pandemic. While I was not directly part of her HR team, I did have a dotted line reporting relationship.  Vickie remains among the best colleagues I've ever had the pleasure of working with as a leader and friend.  Everywhere Vickie goes, she creates a culture of two-way communication and transparency across the board.  Her compassion for others remains unwavering, and I feel fortunate to have experienced her wisdom and leadership during our time together.  She's 100% the real deal. ~ Caleb E, Iowa

I had the pleasure of working closely with Vickie Causa for the past 3 years and through that time she has been beacon of strength, leadership, support, and most importantly strategic guidance and coaching.  Vickie is an incredibly talented professional who possesses a deep understanding of career development strategies and a genuine passion for helping individuals and entire business units achieve their goals.  Her extensive knowledge of various industries, job markets, and practices allows her to provide invaluable guidance.  Most importantly Vickie has an innate ability to identify and leverage peoples' skills and assets helping them navigate through challenging transitions, explore new opportunities and ultimately achieve success.  It's been an absolute pleasure and an exceptional benefit both personally and professionally to have gotten to work with Vickie.  ~ Mike M., Canada

Vickie Causa has been an amazing mentor and coach.  With a listening ear she reminded me the importance of prioritizing people and relationships at the heart of all business.  Vickie always reminds me to consider where I am, determine my goal, and plan the trajectory to get there.  She reminds me that life is about small steps that in time make lasting change.  ~ Gissele B., Georgia

I had the pleasure of working with Vickie for a little over 3 years.  She was not only instrumental in my own personal development and success, but also extremely helpful in the growth and management of my team.  I had a rather large organization and Vickie's coaching around performance management, merit, and succession planning was a huge part of the success and growth of my team.  She was also helpful in navigating some complex personnel issues.  I would highly recommend Vickie to anyone looking to grow a high performing organization.  ~ Ryan M., Florida

What are we trying to solve?  One my fondest memories of working with Vickie was this instance when she very calmly asked our agitated group "what are we trying to solve"? Up until that point we were struggling to focus on the outcome.  With a simple question, Vice was able to steer us in the right direction.  The question Vickie posed to the group pretty much sums up her leadership style.  She is always calm, collected and seeks to solve a problem on hand while simultaneously empowering her team members to let their ideas thrive.  ~ Avanija S., New York

In my 30-year career in HR, I am privileged to have been coached and mentored by Vickie Causa.  Not only is she a proven leader in the professional services world, but she also knows how to build trusting, strategic relationships.  In HR, that is the key to becoming a successful business partner.  Vickie's coaching and mentoring was key to my success.  Not only was I able to tap into her knowledge, but she is also an excellent listener and was a major supporter in my career aspirations.  She has a very relaxed style and always allows you to 'share'.  What I appreciate most is her transparency, honesty and integrity.    This is exactly why she earns the respect of everyone she supports, especially at the top leadership level.  I have nothing but the greatest admiration for Vickie, and because of her coaching and mentoring, I have become a more accomplished HR professional.  ~ Karen T., Illinois

I had the opportunity to work with Vickie due to the absence of my local manager for approximately one full year, despite the fact that we were working from completely different locations - Spain and the US.  Working with her I  recognized the attributes that make managers be great leaders - provide feedback (both positive and constructive), show orientation and give guidance on 'how to' rather than explaining step by step.  That is why I found in working with Vickie a great coach and counsel, as she helped me become a better and stronger HR professional by teaching me how to find in myself the resources to overcome not only big challenges at work, but the 'business as usual' maters.  There is a Chinese proverb which states - "Give a fish to a man and he will eat today.  Teach him how to fish and he will eat for the rest of his life" - Vickie is a true example of it. ~ Marta B., Madrid

There are many attributes I can name that describe Vickie Causa.  The one that comes to the top of my mind is her unwavering willingness to learn about people, places and things.  While with our company, Vickie frequently traveled to Japan, Hong Kong, Korea and Viet Nam to engage with our staff and bring about change that can only enhance a global organization.  Her ability to reach people from various cultures made it possible for our global team to feel more connected.  I've long admired Vickie's professionalism, her calm, cool approach to situations her work ethic and inclusive approach.  I would highly recommend her for anyone who needs a trusting, insightful coach ~ Hirotaka T., Tokyo
