Here is what a recent participant of his coaching had to say: “When I met Jacob Engel over a year ago I had already run a successful business for many years and “thought” I knew a lot – until I met Jacob.” Through our conversations on EQ and Leadership, he transformed how I think and gave me a fresh perspective on business leadership, structure, organization, and planning. I feel lucky and privileged to have been guided to him – and would advise anyone who is lucky enough to get to know him to lock in the opportunity. It will transform how you think – give you a renewed passion and energy to pursue your goals – it will open talent you never knew you had – and most importantly how to utilize your talents in the most productive and correct manner.
