Executive coaching consultant Judah Schiller learned all about ‘combat confidence' as a soldier in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), one of the world's most elite fighting forces.
Now, the attorney-turned-career coach, speaker and Fortune 500 trainer draws on his experiences in the IDF to instruct corporate executives and professionals in the finer points of leadership, stress management and personal growth.
Following his military service, Schiller attended University of California Hastings College of the Law. After graduation, he joined the Silicon Valley office of Weil, Gotshal & Manges, a prominent international law firm.
"Silicon Valley is one of the most high-pressure business environments in the world," says Schiller. "My work in mergers and acquisitions gave me a unique opportunity to observe a frazzled corporate culture ripe for the abilities every IDF soldier masters from the inside out.
Combat Confidence, Schiller stresses, is not about killing, fighting or anger. "It's about clarity, focus, empowerment and passion," he says. "It's about eliminating the stress, ambiguity and self-limiting talk that stands in the way of living a more balanced and productive life and career."
In conjunction with speaking, corporate training and seminars, Schiller is an executive coaching consultant to clients all over the U.S. and abroad with whom he conducts one-on-one sessions either in person or by telephone. He also has live teleclasses, where participants dial into a conference line, including his free 60-minute Combat Confidence class. Other classes meet weekly for up to eight sessions.
"Whether by phone or in person," says Schiller, "my focus as an executive coaching consultant is to help clients create meaningful change in a person's their lives and provide a tangible plan of action for achieving positive results. If you dread the thought of going back to work on Monday, then you will definitely benefit from Combat Confidence," says Schiller.
"You'll also benefit if you've been in the same job for more than two years and you are still not experiencing the success and recognition you deserve."
