Vicke Christensen - Personal Coach

Vicke Christensen of Christensen Consulting and Coaching had us develop a web site for her rapidly expanding coaching business.

Here's text from her home page to describe the business:

The focus of our company is two-fold. Our foundation is in human resources and organizational development. We primarily work with small and medium companies as well as entrepreneurial ventures to improve business performance and increase employee engagement. We often find that while partnering with our clients on various organizational issues or initiatives, we also simultaneously engage in professional coaching --one on one confidential coaching sessions with executives, managers and individual contributors who want to accomplish a wide range of individual goals.
