My name is Vicky Puchi-Saavedra, founder and CEO of Earth’s Healing, a Tucson based and Arizona-licensed medical cannabis business that has been operating for 8 years.
Just over a year ago, I joined Troy Jacobson’s executive coaching program to strengthen my leadership skills to support our rapidly growing business and industry.
Troy’s highly collaborative team approach to coaching has exposed me to a multitude of perspectives, challenges, and solutions through sharing sessions that he leads with other company executives. In addition to working in teams, I have benefited from Troy’s one-on-one sessions in which he asks the right questions to not only prioritize the topics that impact my company the most but to stay focused on coming up with the most effective and sustainable solutions.
Troy is an experienced professional that is truly interested and skilled at finding ways in which company leaders like me can achieve their objectives.

After personally benefiting from Troy’s coaching, I asked him to provide 1-1 coaching and group coaching for my executive team at Vantage West. After just a couple of sessions, I began to see a change in my team, the level of collaboration improved, they became more comfortable challenging one another in a professional manner and their level of self-awareness rose.

I have known Troy Jacobson for the past two years since he started the creation of our Vistage Group CEO Network and subsequently assisted Ascent Aviation Services in the implementation of Predictive Index. It is important to note that if it were not for the coaching capabilities that Troy displayed in my introduction to Vistage meeting, I would probably not have leaned towards joining the team – which I can now say would have been a major mistake on my part.

During the past year Troy has been a great asset to our efforts and we have seen significant progress in the growth of each of our team members in the areas of effective and appropriate communication, teamwork, accountability, and overall leadership skills. Without hesitation, we recommend Troy as a valued provider of executive coaching and plan to continue utilizing his skills and expertise.

This letter is my official recommendation for Troy Jacobson as a Predictive Index (PI) and Executive Coaching consultant and for your organization. I oversee a healthcare organization that has worked with Troy over the past couple of years years and the results of our engagement with Troy have been tremendous.
