For the past 20 years, Patti Cain-Stanley has been supporting executives and entrepreneurs in moving the needle to propel their careers and businesses. Through an intuitive business sense, emotionally intelligent leadership, and strong management acumen, Patti understands what is needed to help her clients grow as leaders, achieve peak performance, and live a balanced life. She parlayed her early achievements as a sales and operations executive at AT&T, into her thriving Southern California-based coaching, facilitation, and consulting business, Cain-Stanley & Co. (CSC). Her first-hand experience as both a corporate executive and business owner combine to augment her coaching and benefit her clients. Another key to her success has been the ongoing support of an executive coach as a strategic partner; Patti has worked with a coach since 1996—allowing her to see and maximize both sides of the coaching dynamic.
Recognizing that leadership coaching adds greatly to the winning formula entrepreneurs or business leaders seek, Patti created D.Y.N.A.M.I.C. Executives Coaching, an integrated, advanced program that inspires and delivers extraordinary leadership. Patti and her team of ten coaches and consultants, partner with the individual, team, or organization for sustained paradigm shifts, graduate-level thinking, and development of highly-prized leadership and communication skills. So effective is this program, that top clients like Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, AT&T, The Walt Disney Company, Raytheon, Mattel, UCLA, USC, The Ken Blanchard Companies, along with many other small to medium-size businesses, private and public, come to CSC for the guidance that will lead their enterprises to grow and succeed.
Always eager to develop superior insights and capabilities, Patti has compiled an impressive set of credentials. She received a degree in Business Administration from the University of Florida, graduating summa cum laude. She has participated in Executive Education programs at MIT and Indiana University’s Kelley Management School. Patti is also a graduate of the New Ventures West Integral Coaching Program and has enhanced her training through courses from the Hudson Institute and CoachU. She is a certified coach through the International Coaching Federation and is certified in several 360° feedback tools and a variety of personal and leadership development assessments.
It may seem that Patti’s focus is all business. Not so. While climbing the corporate ladder, and later when developing and launching Cain-Stanley & Co., Patti was also raising a family. Executive coaching turned out to be a strong aid as both personal and work demands intensified simultaneously. Patti maintains this balance, running a vibrant company while making time for her family and other interests which include travel, yoga, and outdoor sports such as jogging and hiking. Constantly evaluating the trade-offs, she successfully juggles priorities to maintain a varied and fulfilling life.
