Skyline Group International, Inc. (commonly referred to as Skyline G or SkylineG) is a premier leadership development and executive coaching firm headquartered in Redwood City, California. Founded in 1994, the company has built a reputation as a leading provider of scalable leadership solutions with a foundation built upon decades of executive coaching with some of the most recognized companies in the world.

Skyline Group specializes in developing leaders at every level of the organization from first-time managers and high-potential employees to C-suite executives through a proprietary blend of one-on-one executive coaching, technology-driven coaching platforms, research-validated 360-degree assessments, and data-driven leadership analytics. The company manages a global network of over 180 executive coaches worldwide, each carefully vetted and selected based on impressive credentials, extensive leadership experience, and unique abilities to accelerate the success of the leaders they work with.

In 2012, Skyline Group launched its groundbreaking C4X (Coaching for Excellence) platform, a first-of-its-kind scalable coaching solution that combines an integrated 360 assessment, personalized content, comprehensive metrics, and a coach management system with the personalized impact and connection of 1:1 coaching. The C4X suite includes specialized programs: C4L (Coaching for Leadership) for mid-to-senior managers, C4M (Coaching for Management) for new managers, C4H (Coaching for High Potentials), and C4W (Coaching for Women) leaders. This technology-enabled approach has allowed Skyline Group to deliver consistent, measurable, and high-impact coaching solutions at scale.

The Skyline 360 Assessment, developed in 2001 through a combined research effort by Stanford University, University of Massachusetts, and University of Florida, evaluates leaders on 28 empirically validated competencies across four core domains: Leading Self, Leading Others, Leading the Organization, and Managing Implementation/Execution. This research-based assessment tool has become a cornerstone of Skyline Group’s methodology, providing normative benchmark data that allows leaders to compare their scores against thousands of other successful leaders.

Skyline Group’s clients span a wide range of industries and include many of the world’s most recognized organizations, such as Google, Apple, Microsoft, Netflix, Disney, Facebook/Meta, LinkedIn, Uber, Stripe, Dropbox, Cisco Systems, Charles Schwab, Hewlett-Packard, Johnson & Johnson, Gilead, Gap, Amazon, Adobe, Groupon, Medidata, Blue Shield of California, Coinbase, and many more. The company has been recognized for delivering a 96% skill development improvement rate among coached leaders and a 100% coaching impact rate, with all leaders reporting increased skill development for their chosen competencies. The company reports client ROI estimates averaging $432,000 per leader in one documented program, and has achieved a 99% participant satisfaction rating in large-scale C4X deployments.

Skyline Group’s founders, Thuy Sindell, Ph.D., and Milo Sindell, MS, are published authors of four books on leadership and employee performance, including Hidden Strengths: Unleashing the Crucial Leadership Skills You Already Have (Berrett-Koehler, 2015). They have been featured in major national media, including Fortune, CNN, Forbes, Business Week, Fox News, NBC, Washington Post, and Investor’s Business Daily. Thuy Sindell is a noted TEDx speaker and has been rated the #1 coach at two of the “Magnificent 7” technology companies.
