Fuetsch about how he works – and what he can add to your
company and employees…

how do you help people? How do you work?
Tom Fuetsch: In so many corporations they say CI: How do you start working with somebody,
that they believe in letting people communicate and whether it’s an individual or a company?
they say that they want you to be creative in your job.
But, those two things are really shut down to a lot of
employees in corporations – the bigger a
corporation gets the more it’s regimental. If people
get the creativity, they get communication and once
people start creating they start feeling better about
themselves which is better for them and the company
they work for.
A lot of people get stuck in their energy, in their
work, and they feel frustration that they're just not
going any place. When they feel that way, I sit them
down and I assess what’s going on in their life and
then we work through it. I can then give them tools
that they can use for the rest of their lives, so that
before they leave they should feel much better about
themselves.

culture. Quite obviously the new company didn't
want the executives to fear the new culture and run
and leave the company. They needed me to come in
ahead of time or during the takeover and talk with Life Coach Tom Fuetsch
the executives so that fear didn't really take over,
