Here’s what my clients had to say about their coaching journey

I’m thrilled to share my testimonial about the enriching experience I had with Martin as a coach and mentor. His unique approach made me feel safe and comfortable right away, paving the way for genuine transparency and authenticity in our coaching relationship.

From the very start of our sessions, I was impressed by Martin’s ability to create a supportive and non-judgmental environment. He has a unique way of guiding coaching sessions toward logical and practical solutions. Attentive to every detail, he quickly adapts to new information. This flexibility enables him to identify limiting thought patterns and obstacles and address them constructively. Thanks to his coaching skills, I was able to develop clearer and more balanced perspectives, which led to solutions perfectly tailored to my specific needs (like learning to coexist with my inner dragon!).

Martin is an exceptional coach who skillfully combines kindness, transparency, and authenticity to foster an environment conducive to personal growth. His solution-oriented approach was a game-changer for me, and I highly recommend his services to anyone looking to push their limits and achieve their full potential.

As a technology leader overseeing a software engineering department within a large organization, I had the pleasure of working with Martin Proulx as my coach for six months. Our fast-growing, high-paced company demands peak performance, and I needed a coach to help me thrive in this dynamic environment.

Martin’s insightful questions and active listening allowed him to quickly and deeply understand my needs. Our coaching sessions consistently challenged me to see things from new perspectives, question some of my beliefs and behaviors, and make well-informed decisions about my next steps. Each week, I made tangible progress and left every session with actionable steps to implement.

Working with Martin has made me a better leader, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their performance and leadership skills.

Over the past few months, I’ve worked closely with Martin.

Martin is precise, focused, honest, and transparent. He helped me better understand who I am (my strengths) and who I want to become as a leader.

By consistently challenging my actions and decisions, he enabled me to express myself more effectively and deconstruct (and overcome) my imposter syndrome.

This transformation, if I can call it that, didn’t happen overnight, of course, but rather through several months of introspection. Our weekly discussions helped me reflect on my actions and decisions and gradually build the leadership posture I wanted to embody.

I truly enjoyed working with Martin, and I’m confident I’ll continue collaborating with him in the future.

My experience with my professional coach and mentor, Martin, has been truly transformative.

Acting as a true partner, Martin helped me adopt new perspectives and consider possibilities I would never have explored on my own. He doesn’t hesitate to challenge me when necessary, which pushes me to question and refine my ideas.

His ability to listen attentively and ask impactful questions allows me to reflect deeply and better frame the changes I want to bring to my practice. With his support, I feel more confident and equipped to navigate the various roles in my career.

His expertise in organizational leadership and his ability to diagnose the challenges I faced were especially helpful in navigating complex situations.

I am extremely thankful for the time and effort Martin dedicated to my development as a leader.

I am confident that the skills and knowledge I’ve gained through our coaching sessions will continue to benefit me and support my growth within my organization.

I have been working with Martin for nearly two years now. Initially, Martin began coaching me as an agile coach, and what I appreciated from the start was how, through simple questions, he expanded my perspective and guided me to approach topics from multiple angles.

If you’re looking for growth, you can count on Martin to share his observations in an honest yet respectful way, paving the path to becoming a better version of yourself.

He will guide you with small, actionable steps that can be implemented almost immediately.

His approach is truly, “What small change can we make today that will have a big impact tomorrow?”

He takes the time to listen and understand how he can best support you.

Over the past year, he has helped me embrace what I once saw as a flaw and recognize it as a strength. He has boosted my confidence as a leader.

I started coaching sessions with Martin a few weeks ago, and I quickly felt that I had made progress.

Martin knows how to build trust, encouraging you to step out of your comfort zone while respecting your limits.

Martin is a great mirror. With his external perspective, he has this ability to make you aware of your reality but from a different angle, which leads you to rethink your paradigms.

For me, these sessions are as much an investment in my career as in my personal life.

Thank you, Coach!

The weekly sessions with Martin were incredibly enriching, helping me learn more about myself. From our very first meeting, he helped me grow by quickly identifying areas we could work on to help me evolve both professionally and personally.

He understood me well and was able to read me, holding up a mirror to reflect my true self. I think this is a great way to become aware of your challenges and find ways to grow.

He leads sessions with clear objectives, ensuring that every moment delivers maximum personal benefit.

Thanks to him, I learned something simple yet fundamental to good communication that can open countless doors: listening.

Being coached by Martin is an extraordinary gift—the gift of truly meeting myself on a deeper level. This exploration allows me to uncover my protective mechanisms and expand the space I can offer in my own coaching practice.

Martin doesn’t need to use many words because the ones he chooses are powerful. They are words that come from a deep place. Words that resonate, challenge what needs to be challenged, create connections, open pathways, and illuminate hidden areas. These are words born from an attentive, profound, and compassionate presence—a presence that, above all, listens. Fully. With his whole being.

I had the privilege of working with Martin for over 18 months. My initial request was to help reignite the transformation of a company facing rapidly changing market conditions.

Martin’s approach was to work on multiple levels: supporting the leadership team on strategic and behavioral aspects, shifting the culture toward an agile mindset, identifying a new generation of leaders, and helping various teams evolve toward greater autonomy and initiative.

You, dear reader, will find that Martin is not your typical consultant, nor is he an agility fanatic. He will speak the truth as he sees it, seek unconventional approaches, and, above all, focus on behavioral aspects before mentioning any methodology.

Seek his help if you need executive and strategic coaching and are looking for profound changes.

The coaching sessions allowed me to take a step back and distinguish between what is important and what is urgent.

My discussions with Martin helped me reconcile my needs as a leader with those of my organization.

I appreciated Martin’s ability to create conversations that allowed me to express my concerns and explore concrete solutions.

His coaching sessions helped me practice “strategic letting go” and make surprising connections that led to more informed decision-making.

Thanks to my sessions with Martin, I was able to dive back into action with a clearer understanding of my personal and professional needs.

Martin was my coach at Ubisoft Québec, supporting me while my team was undergoing an organizational transformation.

His active listening, consistently insightful questions, and excellent solutions and recommendations helped me effectively support my team during the transition and grow in my role as a leader.

Coaching sessions with Martin were opportunities to share my challenges and release the pressure of daily demands. Through our conversations, I was able to channel my energy and find appropriate solutions to my challenges.

Martin truly helped me regain my balance and focus on long-term strategies instead of getting sidetracked by short-term reactions.

Leadership coaching was an essential support in helping me navigate complex situations and develop my style as a leader.

I reached out to Martin to help me transition into a leadership role in the banking sector.

He consistently used the right questions to guide my thinking in the right direction, enabling me to accelerate thoughts I might have eventually had but over a much longer period of time.

Martin is intelligent, clear, and articulate, and he intervenes effectively with minimal words to support the evolution of thought.

Our coaching sessions helped me enhance my management skills, and I would definitely recommend him!

Sessions with Martin are like therapy, where I bring my weekly challenges to deconstruct and analyze them.

Martin’s experience and his direct, powerful questions allow me to connect the dots between situations and learn about myself (my patterns, triggers, and pitfalls).

It’s fascinating to see that I always leave our sessions with insights I wouldn’t have been able to gain on my own and with an incredible boost of energy.

Thank you, Coach Martin!
