Dr. Jim Goldstein is the creator and CEO of the Powerful Partnerships® Coaching Program. He was a college professor for four years and clinical psychologist in private practice for 14 years specializing in committed relationships. His program was created in response to what he saw in his private practice and in his consulting practice – unconscious patterns of communication and interaction that unwittingly interfered with the development and maintenance of healthy relationships. He developed a way of communicating and acting that has a transformative effect on relationships in both families and in work situations. He has taught his method to couples and to leaders of organizations with equal success. Since 1993 he has been a nationally recognized coach, trainer, author and professional speaker for small and medium sized companies as well as for some of the largest organizations in the country. For five years he was the personal coach to the Chief of the Army Reserves. He has received specialized training in creating the customer service experience, continuous improvement management, and leadership development and incorporates his experience in training people everywhere to create Powerful Partnerships.
