NOAH BLUMENTHAL - EXECUTIVE COACH



Noah Blumenthal is an Executive Coach who has supported hundreds of top executives to improve leadership effectiveness, increase their personal influence, set and achieve their goals, and think more strategically. Noah is dedicated to raising his clients' self-awareness to produce better understanding and superior decision-making for break-through business results. He is an entrepreneur at heart and loves coaching other entrepreneurial spirits.

Mr. Blumenthal has experience coaching fast-paced business owners, CEOs, top sales people and senior executives of large corporations including scientists and engineers in global corporations. His coaching supports executives in gaining fresh perspectives on their businesses and themselves. Noah's clients include Fortune 500 companies such as Accenture, Bank of America, DuPont, E-Trade, First Energy Corporation, IPG, Janssen Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceuticals, Leo Burnett, MetLife and Pfizer.

His coaching style is for executives interested in straight talk and making things happen. Noah supports his clients to see their situations from new perspectives, open to their own potential and ultimately make better decisions for their businesses and themselves. Mr. Blumenthal's coaching is credited with supporting:

  • A multi-million dollar sales executive to increase his revenue by more than 50% during a down market.
  • A "C" level executive to successfully onboard to a company with a dramatically different culture. He developed strong relationships and achieved powerful wins within 90 days of his arrival.
  • An Executive Director to successfully restructure the executive team around new goals and build more powerful relationships and coalitions.
Prior to joining Break Through Consulting, Mr. Blumenthal founded an internal coaching and consulting group at UBS Financial Services where he helped lead the effort for team development and leadership coaching. While there he trained and consulted to over 1,000 teams and coached hundreds of team leaders on how to improve their businesses and their behaviors. The executives he coached outperformed their peers in revenue by more than 25%, which led to a dramatic expansion of his team, from 4 to 17 people in fewer than 18 months from the inception of the group.

Previously, Noah created values-based team and leadership development programs at Chase Manhattan Bank.

Mr. Blumenthal is the author of Be the Hero and You're Addicted to You (both published by Berrett-Koehler). He has also written for magazines, including the journals of the American Management Association and the International Coach Federation.

Additionally, Noah is a seasoned speaker and trainer and has been featured as a speaker at Columbia University, the American Society for Training and Development, and the Greenleaf Center for Servant Leadership.

"Engaging Noah as a coach is one of the best decisions I have made for myself. Noah helped me set challenging, realistic goals and set me up for repeated success rather than burnout. In addition, we identified a process for hitting my goals that dealt head on with things that had been challenging for me in the past. Noah is an exceptional coach."
