  • "Teresa's framework has revolutionized our business. Over the two years we worked together, she helped my whole team learn to think strategically and quantify the outcomes we deliver. The accountability and collective focus from weekly, quarterly, and annual planning rhythms, along with shared language and a decision-making process, clarify which projects are worth our time and which are not. As a result, we are providing exponentially more value to our clients and our project load has doubled year over year."

I came away with a huge amount of respect for the way Teresa used all the media to address and retain the topics and discussion. I don't think I've ever seen a facilitator who had a better grasp of all topics and did a better job of extracting input and moving toward a well-defined plan of action.”
