“For the past 8 years Mary has worked with us in various capacities on our annual Mission days for employees. She is a creative and dynamic presenter and facilitator. She has collaborated with us to determine core content related to our mission and values, and then designs a program that is engaging, educational and transforming. She has the ability to weave together the spiritual, psychological and developmental aspects of so many topics that are central to our mission and values. She helps us 'dig deep' and challenges us, through these mission days, to be who we say we are.”

Thank you very much for the incredible session that you presented at our annual staff retreat. You were terrific!

Many of our staff came up to me in the days following the retreat commenting on how it was the "best" staff inservice in which they had ever participated.

Your Myers Briggs retreat was fabulous and we all had fun learning about one another and our own individual thought & communication processes. I am convinced that, especially with your excellent facilitating skills, any business with 5+ people working together would benefit greatly from this experience
Who ever thought constructive criticism, organization and communication could be so much fun!

I just wanted to tell you what a fabulous job you did facilitating the DiSC session for our Management Essentials program.  Your evaluations were great, and our attendees just raved about you all week.  In fact, you were the standard to which they held all the instructors the rest of the week. Thanks again for bringing such enthusiasm to our group.  We look forward to working with you again next year!
