Whether you're looking for a business coach, or want to become one yourself, we've got you covered.
From emerging managers to seasoned executives, we help leaders grow and thrive.
We focus on founder-led, family-owned, and non-profit businesses — organizations where the people and the mission are personal, not just line items. That's the lens we bring to every engagement, whether it's a full HR audit or a single coaching conversation.
“Profit for a company is like oxygen for a person. If you don't have enough of it, you're out of the game. But if you think your life is about breathing, you're really missing something.”
— Peter Drucker
Every engagement is backed by a team with 225+ years of collective HR experience — real people who get to know your business, not just your org chart.

Leslie Hayes and her staff are great to work with. Leslie worked with me one-on-one during several meetings. With a wealth of information and experience, she counseled and advised in order to help me address my particular problems with ease.
Things that I have always wanted to do have now become things that are getting done. Life changing decisions are now in my control. And if asked, I would say there is no better feeling.
Using The Hayes Approach workshops was a great investment for FUJIFILM! We saw benefits immediately and measured a 169% return on investment after 8 months!
Leslie Hayes is a phenomenal trainer! She provides invaluable current and relevant information in an engaging and thought provoking format, and allows participants to easily apply their learning to each individual setting and situation.
For being able to support your business from the inside, a coach must understand your company and every individual at the same time. Leslie and her team were able to "read" us from day one and support us perfectly in small as well as big topics.
Among all the professional business/HR consulting firms I have worked with, THA stands out as one of the most professional, responsive, knowledgeable and innovative. I rely on their subject matter expertise, integrity and commitment to our partnership.
We have worked Leslie and THA for almost 2 years utilizing them for coaching and leadership development. Feedback from our associates has always been high, and the return on investment has proven to be very worthwhile.
Our company has had the pleasure of working with The Hayes Approach for several years now, and they have become a trusted extension of our HR function — seamlessly supporting us in compliance, recruiting, onboarding, and employee retention.
We’re now at our new location!
