Testimonial

“I brought Mary Beth in to facilitate an all-day intensive reset meeting for 38 team members to build camaraderie, surface grievances, and help us work together to develop operating principals and gel as a team. I had worked with Mary Beth once before on something similar, so I knew she would be the perfect person to call to help me…

…and WOW! It was the best day. Everyone who attended had overwhelming positive feedback, not just for the day but also on what a wonderful job Mary Beth did. She certainly is gifted and has a unique skill set that I think many other teams could benefit from in this way. I received a lot of feedback from the group who were spread across the country. They said they wished that their other or previous accounts would do something similar, even once a year at least or at the beginning of ramping up a big large team. Everyone was so thankful for the time and effort that Mary Beth put into the day, the way she brought us all together and got us to think about each other, our work and our clients differently. At the end of the day, everyone was just so excited and energized to work on this account – and I thank Mary Beth for that!”

Those sessions would be up being a key component to our team’s biz dev turnaround. I can confidently recommend her strategic chops, team leadership abilities, and instantaneous client affinity.

“The Mindful Presence session gave me easy tools to implement to be more mindful, reduce my own stress, and manage both my time and emotions. It helped me with a difficult issue I’m in the midst of right now, which was very timely. I really got a lot from the facilitated group discussion. So glad I went!”

“…I think what stands out most about Mary Beth, though, is her ability to create environments. Whether it’s as facilitator of a workshop, leader of a team meeting, or host at a dinner table, she perfectly owns her role by thoughtfully creating spaces where everyone is comfortable to participate and contribute. And that makes teams stronger. I’m a better facilitator, a better manager, and a better strategist because of her mentorship.”
