Local Coaching Expert Earns Elite Executive Coaching Certification
ORLANDO, Fla. – Regina Fasold – owner of Fasold Global Consulting LLC, an Orlando-based International Leadership and Performance Coaching Firm – recently was certified in Marshall Goldsmith's Stakeholder-Centered Executive Coaching approach.
Fasold Global Consulting, a business client of the University of Central Florida’s Business Incubation Program in Orlando, provides executive-level career and performance coaching, leadership training and corporate change management processing to entrepreneurs, business owners and other executives throughout the United States and 25 other countries.
Fasold’s latest certification is especially meaningful to her as Marshall Goldsmith is viewed as corporate America's preeminent executive coach.
“His approach is much tougher than any other coaching approach because he holds the client and the stakeholders accountable during the coaching process,” Fasold said. “He only gets paid after successful completion of the coaching contract, which is usually for one year. And, it's the stakeholders – the key executives in the organization with whom the clients interact regularly – who determine whether he's been successful.”
Only about 180 coaches worldwide are trained in Marshall Goldsmith's Stakeholder-Centered approach.
A passionate and visionary leader with an MBA in business/economics from the Graduate School of Business in Zürich, Switzerland, Fasold is sought after for her leadership as a master facilitator in the process of change, and for guiding clients to higher performance and success. She also is a Professional Certified Executive Coach with the International Coach Federation, a Certified Change Management Analyst and Trainer, a Certified Personality Type and Strengths Assessor and Trainer, and a Certified Teacher of Autogenic Training (Stress Management).
Her management background also includes 13 years with an international Swiss bank and as a private practice psychologist in Switzerland for six years.
A Switzerland native who is fluent in English, German, French and intermediate in Italian, Fasold has coached executives in more than 25 countries for a decade. She has followed Goldsmith's approach the past two years.
“I knew it was time for me to step up my game,” she said. “Today, I can confidently say that the coaching I provide greatly impacts the leader’s disposition, communication and leadership style to help enhance their overall performance, or else I choose to not get paid.”

Ambo Foods’ “Healthy Cookie” Creators say Working with the State’s GrowFL Economic Gardening Program was Like Having “Fairy Godmothers”
VENICE, Fla. – Physicians Anne-Marie Chalmers and Bo Martinsen – the owners of Ambo Foods, a Venice-based, healthy cookie company – say their experience working with the talented people involved with the Florida Economic Gardening Institute’s GrowFL program was nothing short of a godsend.
The husband and wife medical team liken the time their company spent with the experts provided through GrowFL to having “five fairy godmothers.”
“To be involved with GrowFL was an amazing experience,” Chalmers said. “As a business owner there are always situations where you wonder if you are making the right decision. You ask yourself “who do I talk with, where do I get answers about this question?” To have a team of top people, with expertise in their respective field, was god-sent.”
Created in 2009 by the Florida Legislature, the GrowFL program is based at the University of Central Florida in Orlando. When selecting businesses to participate, members of the Florida Economic Gardening Institute sought companies with growth potential, according to Dr. Tom O’Neal, executive director of the Florida Economic Gardening Institute.
“Ambo foods was a good candidate for the program as it has the potential for continued growth,” said O’Neal, who also is associate vice president for the University of Central Florida’s Office of Research and Commercialization.
O’Neal said GrowFL supported Ambo Foods through a number of services, including access to market research and technology, strategy analysis, CEO roundtables and forums, database research and website optimization.
Ambo Foods – the company behind the Omega Cookie meal-substitute with a full dose of omega-3 plus fiber and calcium – was founded in 2003 by Martinsen and Chalmers, omega-3 specialists who both received medical training at the University of Oslo in Norway. Born and raised in Norway, Martinsen also trained at the University of Bordeaux in France. Chalmers, a native of the United States, is a graduate of Brown University.
The company has 10 employees and, according to Chalmers, “a desire to expand and move ahead with new ideas.”
“Already several employees have taken up some social media tasks that came as part of GrowFL’s recommendations,” she said. “The increased knowledge about our customers that GrowFL has provided has helped our employees focus their energy and we now have a better understanding as to how we need to market our products.”
Chalmers said the company is planning to launch a new product this fall and the help Ambo received in revamping their website will be a key in making the launch a success. “The encouragement and advice we received from GrowFl has been invaluable.”
About Ambo Foods:
Founded in 2003 by Omega-3 specialists Doctors Bo Martinsen and Anne-Marie Chalmers, Ambo Foods offers several varieties of healthy cookies. Each Omega cookie contains seven capsules worth of omega-3 fish oil, five grams of fiber, 200% of the daily value of Vitamin D and 35% of the daily value of calcium. Ambo Foods was named a winner in the category of innovation at the 2010 annual Economic Development Corporation of Sarasota County’s Hall of Fame awards. The honor came as the result of being the first company to create a bakery product that contains an effective dose of omega-3 fish oil.

Omega Cookie Supports National School Lunch Week by Offering Discount to School Lunch Supporters
VENICE, Fla. – In observance of National School Lunch Week Oct. 10-14, AMBO Foods is offering a $5 discount on boxes of their heart-healthy Omega Cookies® to help increase the academic performance of students through better nutrition.
Anne-Marie Chalmers M.D., co-founder of the Venice-based AMBO Foods company, says the Omega Cookie® is a perfect addition to school lunch or an afternoon snack.
“We believe in providing healthy, yet tasty, nutrition for children,” Chalmers says. “While the school lunch programs across the country work hard to provide just that, the Omega Cookie® is a healthy compliment that parents can provide as it has no processed ingredients, such as trans fats, preservatives or high-fructose corn syrup.”
Presented by the School Nutrition Association, this year’s National School Lunch Week theme is “School Lunch - Let’s Grow Healthy.”
Chalmers says the goal of the program is to create a more nutritious, delicious and farm fresh menu at schools across the United States, while helping curtail obesity and other health problems associated with improper diets.
Individually packaged in cranberry, tropical, chocolate chip and ginger-raisin flavors, the Omega Cookie is the perfect addition to a school lunch box, she says. But, the best part is that the cookie that tastes good is actually very good for you.
Each Omega Cookie contains the fiber of a bowl of gluten-free oatmeal, a full day’s dose of omega 3, as well as calcium and vitamin D, and has less sugar than an apple, which Chalmers says easily meets the limits recommended by the American Diabetes Association.
Those interested in ordering one or more boxes of 15 cookies, can call 866-414-0188 and ask for the School Lunch Discount through Oct. 15.
