What clients are saying.

  • “Whether instructing a college journalism class, a community writer’s workshop, a corporate grief counseling webinar or an executive leadership session, Glenn Proctor has the best interest of his audience in mind and will follow through until they are more knowledgeable, confident and successful."

  • "I have been fortunate to have Glenn as my mentor and leadership coach for more than 20 years. He is tough, genuine, ethical and trustworthy. He draws on vast experience as a metro newspaper editor, Marine Corps war veteran, business owner and parent and shares sound and frank advice."

  • “Working with Glenn led me back into the professional workforce during the pandemic after taking a break to raise my children. Not only did I begin serving as a communications consultant again, but gained the courage to launch my own agency - a longtime vision that I had, but did not have the courage to pursue. Glenn supported me every step of the way and for that, I am extremely grateful.”

  • “Glenn Proctor is a renaissance man for these times. He is a warrior and a peacemaker, a survivor and risk-taker, a poet and a wise ass. He can talk the talk because he has walked the walk. I have known Glenn for two decades. His counsel is a mix of tough love, self-help and get off your butt wisdom. Patience, he has. Pity, he has none. He will not throw you a lifeline, but he will teach you how to swim.”
