Recommendation

When we began our intensive search for a training consultant to lead our all-agency professional development workshops, we knew we had our work cut out for us. We needed to find someone who could engage and immediately establish credibility with a diverse group that includes account executives, creatives, IT and administrative professionals.

We needed someone who could deliver compelling content and leave no room for doubt that the sessions were a valuable use of time.

We hit the jackpot with Faith. We have worked with her on two workshops and are preparing for our third. She has a direct, no-nonsense delivery that is balanced with an easy and approachable style. She knows her subject matter cold, is exceptionally well prepared and utilizes a variety of activities to reinforce key concepts and keep her audience engaged.
