BOARD FACILITATION..."Linda...I just wanted to say thanks for the hard work in facilitating the PTA Board sessions this weekend. This was not as easy task and your facilitation was impressive, on-target and kept us on-task (and awake!) the entire time. You helped enormously to begin the forward movement!" (Carole Levine, National Parent Teachers Association).
STRATEGIC PLANNING... "Linda, I must again express my appreciation to you for your help. To attempt to do what we did yesterday, and to accomplish it, required the direction of a very talented individual! I was impressed with your ability to assimilate the diverse information and bring it together in a comprehensive plan---without even having an idea of our business and all the various facets of land brokerage. Everyone else mentioned this also. Thanks, thanks, thanks." We are so fortunate to have your guidance!" (Winnie Stortzum, Board of Directors, Realtors Land Institute)
TRAINING AND SPEAKING..."Wonderful!" "Exactly what I was looking for." "I appreciated her follow-up note on my question." "Excellent presentation and material." "Very helpful." "Great job presenting great information." "Great speaker - could relate to content." "Very good - very passionate." "Great program and Linda offered great value in information, personal insights and follow-ups directely related to my role." (Association Forum workshop attendee evaluations)
