Reviews

Our partnership with Dr. Michael Cromartie and The Cromartie Group has been a groundbreaking experience for our leadership development initiatives. His approach seamlessly bridges theory and practice blending strategic insight, authentic coaching, and a deep understanding of organizational culture. What sets Dr. Cromartie apart is his ability to build immediate trust with leaders while challenging them to think and act with clarity, courage, and purpose. His guidance has helped our partners move from conversation to implementation, creating sustainable systems of leadership and collaboration that extend well beyond the program itself.

Working with The Cromartie Group has been one of the most transformative experiences of my professional journey. Dr. Cromartie’s coaching pushed me to refine my leadership philosophy, build deeper trust within my executive team, and lead with greater clarity and confidence. His approach is both strategic and deeply human, blending research-based frameworks with practical reflection and accountability. The insights I gained not only elevated my own leadership capacity but also strengthened our organization’s collective vision and impact. I am a more intentional, empowered, and adaptive leader because of this partnership.

Dr. Cromartie is one of the most remarkable people I have had the honor to know personally and professionally. He is a natural leader, very disciplined and focused on his work and has proven himself as a top performing leader in his industry. I had the privilege of working alongside Dr. Cromartie at Communities In Schools of Hampton Roads, where he served on the Board of Directors from 2019-2022. Dr. Cromartie was a key piece to the successful operation and growth of the organization. His ability to work efficiently and effectively even under very stressful conditions is one of the things that stands out about him. Dr. Cromartie is a definite go-getter, natural born leader, consummate professional and loyal person both personally and professionally.
