Testimonials:

“This really hit home as we are looking at re-org in our section. Leadership vs. Manager. So many great takeaways and also I have lots to work on for the leadership plan. Doing the assessment is the easy part, the hard part is putting it into a plan. But I think we learned a lot of approaches and ways to think about how to do this.”

“Lindsay’s instruction style, sharing of information with incorporation of small, intimate conversation with peers was excellent for this topic.”
