what clients say

"Glenda has helped us transition new supervisors into their roles with the knowledge they gained from her 5-day leadership program. Her positive, upbeat approach made it fun and interesting. She provides lots of opportunities to work in small groups, which helped us all get to know each other better. One specific takeaway was clear knowledge of DISC and how to quickly identify the DISC profiles within our teams. I would highly recommend her coaching and training services."
