An inflection point is a turning point, or a time of significant change, in business or in life.
During those times of inflection, a leader may discover that they want more, or want to lead in a different way; Cory Colton is there to help them find their “true north” and lead from their core. 
Coaching is a way to support in clearing away the noise and clutter and finding the answers that are already inside. Every leader is whole, complete, and resourceful, but sometimes they need wholehearted listening and someone to ask the right question to help connect their passion and purpose to their leadership style.
Through a process of reflective inquiry, Cory helps clients become more effective leaders, team members or colleagues, and align their passions with their day-to-day work and life.
As a coach, Cory is committed to providing an open, honest, confidential, and safe environment. He provides input, honest feedback, and operates as a guide and sounding board. He and his clients work together to expand the view of what is possible and promote the discovery of new insights.
