Real impact in high-performance environments

Brendan Burke

Hartford Athletic Football Club

"Working with Cristina over many years in Philadelphia with countless developing professional players and staff gave me the confidence to introduce her to our team in Hartford this year and her work with us coincided with a trophy push and the clubs best string of performances in its history. The mental side of the game is extremely important; our players and staff put our trust in her and saw the benefits of entering competition week in and week out with a clear mind and focus that allowed us to compete at the highest level we could."

"Cristina Fink is the best psychologist I have come across in high performance professional sport. Through genuine connection and unwavering support, she became more like my top assistant coach with the Philadelphia Union. Cristina was a guiding force for our team, and the fact that she was an elite athlete herself made the players embrace her immediately. Earning the trust of every player, she helped us unlock our true potential, both on and off the field."

Matt Jordan

Trivela Group

"Cristina Fink is the best mental performance coach I've worked with in my 15+ years as a sports executive. She has been instrumental in supporting, mentoring, and guiding coaches and athletes in the organizations where I've held leadership roles in Major League Soccer, and with the clubs we own and operate in Europe within the Trivela Group multi-club network. She understands how to connect with people on a personal and professional level to help them reach their highest potential whether it's in the boardroom, on the sidelines, or on the field competing."

"Dr. Fink uses her knowledge, skills and experiences to reach a diverse array of audiences. I have seen her elevate the performance of athletes across a range of skill levels, from those early in their skill development to those performing at an elite level. She embraces the complexity of factors that affect performance and adapts to the needs and context of each individual or organization. Dr. Fink draws on her own leadership experience to provide educational programming and guidance to coaches, business, and administrative leaders, helping these leaders create environments of high expectation and high support in their own organizations. I have watched Dr. Fink engage audiences from college athletes to high-powered business leaders through workshops or educational sessions focused on improving well-being alongside stronger achievement. Her work with clients includes a synergistic balance of wisdom, creativity and practicality. I consistently hear from colleagues about the ways that Dr. Fink’s work continues to inform their professional and personal practices, long after a particular program or workshop has finished."

I highly recommend Cristina Fink's work... Her approach translates into useful and practical solutions that enhance the performance of executives and management teams."

Corporate Workshop Feedback

"Cristina is a very good communicator; she managed very well the sessions, and I enjoyed them a lot. I love the way she engages and how she incorporates story telling."

"Thank you, Cristina! Thank you (again!!) for providing such a beneficial training for us. I especially loved hearing about your own challenges succeeding in an industry primarily dominated by men. After talking to my manager about the sessions, he believes it will be beneficial to him and the rest of our team (of 5) and is having everyone register for one of the upcoming sessions. I hope that you will be their instructor!"

"Cristina was able to provide very useful leadership tools, as feedback and coaching. I will use coaching to develop my people more. This is the best training I have received in the business."

"Cristina displayed extraordinary facilitation skills across the training. She kept all participants engaged and motivated. Thank you for this opportunity, the best training of my life."

"Cristina uses and shares many real-life examples, which made the training much more interesting. Now I know better how to maximize employees' performance and potential. I will use all the learned concepts and tools from now on. Now it's our responsibility to practice all the learnings to make sure we forget nothing."
