"When my company was looking for professionals to join the team we sought out Jill because of her strong training and coaching background, and her industry knowledge. Jill was able to quickly excel in understanding our product positioning and the theoretical underpinnings of our approach. The result has been that Jill is our best and most sought after group facilitator and one of our top coaches.
I will continue to work with Jill because of her professionalism and her enthusiasm. She is truly a pleasure to work with. Everyone on our team likes her as a person and respects her as a professional. What I value most about Jill's approach is her thoroughness. She is always seeking to improve her understanding of our products and she is continually striving to build on her superb facilitation skills."

Jill can synthesize information and create a dynamic learning environment for participants. Jill also has demonstrated her expertise in developing assessment tools and coaching. Her level of quality and service to our client base is exceptional. Jill is able to bring out the underlying needs of the teams and individuals she works with."
Kelly Patterson McGrath
Director of Operations, Institute for Health and Human Potential
"Working with Jill I have been consistently impressed with her on a number of levels. Her energy, intelligence, attention to detail and people skills have been evident in her work with us. Although Jill did not have a banking background when she joined the company, she quickly mastered the complex product set and was able to match it to meet client needs. More impressively, Jill inherited some difficult client relationships and she was able to turn them around through her negotiation and problem-solving skills, her ability to understand "the big picture" and her obvious commitment and dedication to her work.
Jill has also demonstrated significant leadership in the Sales Operations through her work with the Sales Administrators and through the introduction of new, more effective approaches to regional product sets, marketing strategies and territory management and contracting. She again demonstrated her understanding of the big picture through focusing on the directions she thought most profitable for the company in the future, based on current trends."
Director, Technology-Based Learning
Global Performance Company
"Jill has coached and consulted with me on a variety of business and professional development enhancements. Her planning and time management techniques have helped me stay on track and maintain my focus in a business driven by daily critical deadlines. Her approach has improved my ability to manage the day to day operations without missing a step. But, it hasn't stopped there Jill has coached me through goal setting, working with my staff on core values and especially coping with the pressures coming from above while keeping those pressures from paralyzing the staff who work with me.
I would recommend Jill's expertise for managers of all levels and especially those in the midst of change - as successful managers in current business environments must master the art of managing in a time of change.
Jill is a pleasure to work with and I find myself looking forward to our sessions! Even after years of experience, I always learn something new and worthwhile that I can share and implement with my managers."
