If Maria Bartiromo is the Money Honey then Maggie Mistal is the Career Dear! Maggie is your dream come true career coach and personality! She is vivacious and charming, funny and smart. Maggie’s work is her passion and her passion is helping people unearth theirs: men and women alike. Maggie asks you the questions you would never ask yourself when faced with professional change or transition. Think you don’t have the answers? Maggie leads you there. She’s tough, too, but always your advocate and there to encourage.
Maggie was absolutely FABULOUS! She spoke to the Planning and Development division at my company and she blew the socks off everyone. The SMART career goal message was clear and practical. She helped me think about the possibilities again.
Your giving of your time and energy to educate our community was truly appreciated, and your presentation…on identifying and finding a career you love was outstanding…Once again, thank you for dedicating your time and energy for this event. Because of your efforts, it was spectacular.
I’ve probably done over 150 interviews in the past 6 months since the book was released and I thought yours was among the top two or three. I thought you did an outstanding job!
I underwent a pretty quick climb to Director level in the IT department. I soon realized that my management and leadership skills were very raw and needed much work. Maggie was a huge asset for my success at MSLO. She coached me with one on one sessions. She helped me lay out a personal growth plan for myself and she arranged several courses for MSLO employees for management training. Some of these courses were handled by outside consultants and some others she did herself. Maggie did an excellent job teaching these courses. I know the next time I need coaching and development or if my team needs coaching and development, Maggie would be on the top of of my list for resources and candidates.
You were prepared, spontaneous, we laughed, we had empathy for the listeners, you were gracious yet we covered a LOT in a short period of time. You packed so much into the slot and yet made sure listeners got practical info while being entertained and empowered to feel they can do this.
After two years of deadlines and 15 years waiting to write this book today, well, you made a lot of it worth it and you did it with agility, humility and heart. Bless you.
I heard Maggie one day on Sirius 112 about the self-employed and I am the poster-child for being the over-whelmed, self-employed, driver, bookkeeper, finance manager and way down the list mother/wife struggling with ADD. Maggie, with your knowledge and advice, the avenues that you suggested to me dealing with the bookkeeping right down to the ADD have been….well, I can’t even put a word to it, but things are going so much smoother with the resources you connected me with. I could never thank you enough for the help you have provided me, along with all the people who might otherwise not find out about such great resources.
My sister had been nagging me for over a year to get in touch with Maggie and now I know why. She is one those people that you feel very fortunate to have come in contact with and who leave a very positive imprint in one’s life. Maggie has the uncanny ability to look at things from many perspectives and a depth that most people take a lifetime to achieve. She has really made me think about what is it that I want from my life and career. Her tips and advice are priceless and will take you through any hurdle in your life. They are practical and targeted to the problems. I cannot thank her enough for showing me the light and making me a new confident person.
I had the very good fortune of being a guest on Maggie’s, “Making a Living” SIRIUS XM radio show. Great interviewers AND listeners like Maggie are rare and enable guests like me to shine and be smarter than we really are. Best of all this benefits the listeners who are lucky enough to catch her show.
I had the good fortune to be interviewed by Maggie (on Sirus112) about “The Twitter Book,” which I co-wrote. I did dozens of radio interviews for the book, but Maggie’s really stood out. Her genuine interest in her listeners and her ability to address their concerns with the topic at hand was terrifically refreshing. I’m now a new fan!
I was fortunate enough to start listening to Maggie on SIRIUS 112 at a crucial point in my life. It was obvious my job made me miserable but I didn’t know how to end it or if I even should. Maggie’s radio coaching provided the tips, strategies, and inner confidence to upgrade my resume, improve my interview skills, and strive for a job I might not normally have in the past.
I have since landed a “perfect” job for me. I was able to stay within my profession but finally move to an area that fits my skills and personality much better.
We should all realize that we owe it to ourselves to love what we do but Maggie puts on a silver platter and serves it up each and every chance she gets!
I still tune into Maggie on SIRIUS every chance I get to keep improving all my skills and career desires. I think I now have the confidence to begin the process of switching professions and the knowledge to be successful thanks to Maggie’s tips!
“Maggie is a great career coach that gets results. While personable and easy to talk with, Maggie listens carefully to what you are saying and not saying to gain insights about your next career steps. She is probing without being invasive and easy going but drives to conclusions.She is a real pro and I would highly recommend her to anyone. I had the benefit of having worked with Maggie earlier in her career and knew she was hard working and talented.”
“Maggie presented her “Work Smarter, Not Harder” workshop at PepsiCo in August 2008. She did a wonderful job! I know Maggie in many different capacities – as a Radio Host, Career Coach and L&D Director. Maggie is a confident, inspirational speaker. She empowers others to overcome their fears to attain the job/career they have always wanted. Maggie helps refocus employees’ mindsets to achieve their goals, even in their current roles. What makes Maggie terrific is that she genuinely acknowledges true obstacles and helps devise a plan to work around these obstacles. I whole-heartedly recommend Maggie for your next speaking event. She is easy to work with and consistently delivers a quality product.”
I love all of Martha Stewart Radio and I especially love your show! It gives me insight on myself and my career goals.
“Maggie is professional, committed and personable. She helped me identify and achieve my career goals. Because of her help, I am now in a career where I am passionate, respected and proud of what I do.”
“Maggie’s engaging, interactive and organized presentations provided our alumni with valuable professional development resources and new ways to think about their career goals and strategies. In addition to the formal programs, she continued conversations with many participants well after each event ended. Because Maggie’s presentations attracted a diverse group of our constituents, we were able to present our message in front of alumni who had never attended a university event before.”
“I was amazed at how in the course of an hour Maggie was able to lead our group session in what seemed initially like abstract exercises into formulating a vision statement and an action plan that made sense. You could feel the light bulbs going off in the room — it was quite exciting. I can attest that while it was tough work, her workshop received rave reviews from people who were able to identify the start of a new career path in just 60 minutes. I can only imagine what working in one-on-one setting with Maggie Mistal would be like in terms of opening up new and exciting possibilities to career changers — or to people who want to do more on the path they are currently on!”
“I have listened to Maggie Mistal on Martha Stewart Radio for a good amount of time now, and always soaked in all the information she has provided to individuals like myself in the working world…her inspiration, thoughts and ideas have made me see that anything is possible in life! I have never heard someone more knowledgable, inspiring, and “so real” about individuals dreams they may want to pursue in life, work or their future! Thank you Maggie for making “my dreams come true”, and giving me the strength and power to achieve a new goal…!”
“I had Maggie share her presentation, “Maximizing the Power of Your Network” with our students in the Spring semester of 2009. With today’s economy, students need to use all the tools at their disposal to secure the right job. Maggie was able to show how to use your network, what steps to take to nurture your network and how to overcome obstacles that might get in the way. She clearly demonstrated her expert knowledge of the subject in a way that students could grasp. Her approach got the audience participating and asking questions almost from the outset and she stayed after the formal remarks to help students on a one-on-one basis. Feedback from students was outstanding. I heartily recommend Maggie and look forward to having her back on campus soon.”
It was great being on your show. You’re a gracious hostess.
“Maggie is a supportive, enthusiastic and creative professional coach. She helped my career grow in my desired time frame by giving me challenging and fun exercises, and providing thoughtful insight based on her experience and expertise. While I was looking for “a job”, Maggie helped me find a career that combines all my interests. I would recommend Maggie Mistal’s coaching or workshops to anyone interested in real professional and personal growth.”
“I consider Maggie my go-to for career focus and inspiration. As a faciltator of training classes for financial services professionals, I have invited Maggie to speak several times. After her presentation, I can see the wheels turning behind everyone’s eyes! I have referred several clients her way and have also called on her to help me personally. I am a regular listener to her radio show as I know I will get at least one little nugget of useful and “ready-to-wear” advice each week. Maggie’s cabaret show inspired me to write my dream on paper and make it happen, this year. Thanks for everything, Maggie!”
I love your show on Sirius!!! You cover great topics!
“Maggie is great! When you work with Maggie, she focuses completely on you as an individual and has sincere devotion to helping you. Maggie’s efforts are continuous and I highly recommend her!”
"We invited Maggie to speak at our bi-annual networking event for Women InTechnology. The feedback I received from every attendee was tremendous.Maggie is an exceptional speaker. But more importantly, many women came upto me afterwards and commented that the mini-workshop Maggie walked usthrough was very valuable and insightful. Its great to be entertained andMaggie was very entertaining, but when your attendees walk away withvaluable tools to apply immediately to their every day lives — that is whatleaves a lasting impression. Thank you Maggie for inspiring Women InTechnology!"
