Comments

Diane is a gifted professional. Whether it is in small group facilitation, individual coaching, or career advising, she has a way of helping each person bring out his/her strengths with a clear-eyed understanding of personal, group and institutional dynamics. She does this with an impressive knowledge base as well as amazing wisdom and humor.  I have spent a good part of my career both learning about and teaching leadership and career development, and I can say without the slightest exaggeration that working with Diane has been the most rewarding of all.
