about

“Over my 20+ years of professional experience, I have had the privilege of working with hundreds of intelligent, collaborative and creative individuals. Dr. Vidon stands alone as a singularly empathetic, intuitive and brilliant coach, consultant and mentor. Over our professional lives I have watched Dr. Vidon evolve from a highly respected professor to a professional coach who specializes in business executives and career clients.

Whether you are a seasoned professional transitioning to another career (and need a little assistance creating your own digital briefcase/resume review/networking advice) or a business executive seeking assistance in developing career skills in a top performer on your team, Dr. Vidon can guide you through the journey. To ensure I adequately understand the process I, myself, had a session with Dr. Vidon and, over a brief hour, took critical learnings on how I can better perform as a listener and communicator. With her tailored, one-on-one approach (over three-to-six months), I can only imagine that the impact on a person’s life and career would be substantial.

I urge anyone who is seeking a potential career change or is contemplating promoting or moving an executive to a critical position to contact Dr. Vidon. She can provide insights and guidance that would be otherwise hidden and undiscovered.”

"When I found Elizabeth and RealEyes Coaching, I was looking for a professional coach to help me explore and reach my potential more quickly than I could on my own. I wanted a partner to walk with me outside my comfort zone, to support, challenge and encourage me. I found all those things and more in Elizabeth.

I’ve been fortunate to have excellent coaches for the past 7 years through my employer, but I was looking for more. During the initial moments of our first call, I connected with Elizabeth. Her professionalism mixed with a fantastic sense of humor made it very easy to share my personal and professional challenges which, with her expertise, we quickly transformed into a roadmap for our future conversations. She is empathetic, naturally curious and an engaged listener. Elizabeth provides the support and encouragement I need to challenge my assumptions and gain clarity, accelerating my progress.

Not only am I am a more effective leader as a result of Elizabeth’s coaching, but we’ve worked through personal challenges that I was not able to resolve on my own. One of her gifts is the ability to provide honest, sometimes difficult feedback in a caring, compassionate manner. We all have blind spots, but I am able to confidently and courageously shine a light on mine with her guidance. My personal and professional relationships continue to bloom thanks to my partnership with Elizabeth.

I can enthusiastically and energetically recommend Elizabeth and RealEyes Coaching! I know that you will find, as I did, a partner, confidant and expert guide through any challenge that you encounter."

"Elizabeth led a training on ontology and personal leadership statements for our TMCC Leadership Fellows Program. From the beginning, it was evident that the participants would be captivated by the class. Elizabeth has an engaging delivery, thought-provoking content that prompts deep reflection, and a passion for the topic. I appreciate that Elizabeth keeps the training active with exercises that illustrate the points she is making and she keeps the learning experience fun!

She is also just a delightful person to whom people relate and enjoy. She received the highest scores possible on our feedback survey. We will be bringing Elizabeth back to provide more training."

"I started the coaching process with Elizabeth feeling lost, uncertain, and in a rut with where I was at in my career journey. Elizabeth helped me feel that not only were my ambitions achievable, they were also realistic and approachable. Elizabeth's career coaching helped me feel empowered to envision a better future for myself while also giving me the tools needed to start building my dream. I didn't realize I already had so many applicable skills and experience I could harness! It blew me away what we were able to accomplish in one session, and I couldn’t recommend Elizabeth's work or this process more."

"I came to Elizabeth Vidon to get guidance and direction with my resume as well as my interviewing techniques. I was excited when USA JOBS had an announcement for a promotion possibility; but quickly realized I needed the guidance and direction of a savvy and highly analytical Career Coach (such as Elizabeth herself) to help me with my resume, interview techniques and confidence issues that I was having when it came to the federal government application process (this process was very intimidating to me).

Elizabeth not only helped me find the internal strength and confidence I so desperately needed, she also gave me tools and resources to help me. She helped me identify issues and she suggested improvements in my resume and job interviewing techniques. Elizabeth made me feel very comfortable with this whole process. She is a highly competent and compassionate person who made this whole process less intimidating.

Thanks to Elizabeth, I was able to come away with a more polished and professional resume, a better understanding of myself, and confidence about applying for this promotion. She helped me to identify my strengths and helped me to incorporate those strengths into my professional and personal life.

Thanks again Elizabeth for all your help! You’re an amazing person as well as an amazing career coach and I know that anyone would be happy to have you help them."

"I had the pleasure of working with Liz as my coach and cannot recommend her enough. Her ability to listen actively, ask powerful questions, and provide insightful feedback was truly exceptional. She created a safe and supportive space for me to explore my goals, values, and beliefs and helped me to uncover my strengths and areas for growth.

Liz is a true professional and exemplifies the core competencies of the International Coach Federation. She consistently demonstrated her ability to establish trust and rapport with me, maintain a strong coaching presence, and remain fully present and engaged throughout our sessions. She also showed great skill in co-creating the coaching relationship and setting clear expectations for our work together.

Thanks to Liz's coaching, I was able to gain clarity and confidence in my personal and professional life and make meaningful progress towards my goals. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with her and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a skilled and compassionate coach."
