what makes us different?

We know the art and science of how to choreograph attention, engagement and activation in ways in ways that build human connection and improved results.

Attention

We recognize the whirlwind our clients can feel caught in when they show up to our sessions, often still wrapped up in the meeting they just left -- or their deliverables. We get it. That’s why we begin our sessions by considering why our time together is important to them. Participants appreciate how this Strategic Pause re-connects and re-focuses their attention on reaching their most important outcomes.  

Engagement

Once participants re-focus on their individual and collective outcomes, their energy and ability to advance those goals is amplified! And our expertise in structuring safe yet real conversations among colleagues results in connections that fortify them. As a result participants consistently describe our experiences as “highly relevant” or “energizing for action” & “among the very best” they have experienced.

activation

We advance their experiential learning with an invitation to recall what is at stake for each person, and for their teams, before we activate their next steps for driving appropriate progress and impact. We close with time for participants to reflect on how their honest conversations with colleagues opened up this space of possibility and mutual accountability.    

Client Impact

  • “Fred uses his easy rapport to draw out feedback from others, summarize it and then present it back in a way that was clear and compelling. He helped me sort through an incredible amount of feedback and distill it down to the few key changes I needed to make in order for me to be a more effective and respected leader."

    -Michael W., Avis Budget Group

  • “The Praxis process guided me to envision a future state of where I wanted to be, develop action plans to achieve that state and define the impact of realizing the future state would have on me, my team and the business. Once I pushed through the process it was breakthrough work and mentally refreshing! ”

    -Christy V. , Intact Insurance

  • “Our Praxis facilitators were amazing at how they enabled us to have effective and meaningful conversations that we don’t normally have back at the office. They leveraged facts, stories and questions (lots of questions!) to spark our discussions and applications. We came to get work done ... and we also left more united as a team.”

    -Travelport Participant

  • “Fred, I can’t believe how you were able to get me to talk about this work challenge I am having. I don’t normally talk about things in this depth with other people. But I felt a freedom to speak with you in ways that I don’t normally speak with others. I thought Coaches were supposed to give you advice … but you listened deeply, asked the right questions, helped me assess the situation more completely and then explore what the possibilities were for me – which then extended the range of options available to me. You actually make it fun to have a problem!”

    -Mohamed, TikTok

  • "There are a multitude of companies and individuals available for executive coaching services, but only a few really stand out as having helped managers make lasting and effective changes. Fred Bunsa is just such one. Fred has provided coaching to me and many of my colleagues over the past 15 years. He has an accomplished track record in increasing the productivity and achievement for those who partner with him, and their personal growth and successes are always notable. His objective guidance promotes self-awareness - something extremely necessary for success - and from day one, he ensures he has an acute understanding of his clients' needs. Our long-standing work relationship is a testament to his skills as an executive coach and advisor."

    -Linda N, Rosco Vision

  • I love these conversations! I never know where they are going to go. But it’s always about me and my situations – what is going on in my current reality. In the beginning, my concern was that this coaching would be too academic – teaching from the top down. But you have focused on me and my leadership and what I can learn in this moment.
