Daringly Great Leadership

Here is just a sample of amazing places I’ve had a privilege of serving.

“I had wonderful people practically begging to work with me”

In a simple, yet profound way, Teresa walked through the process of creating my job post. I remember her saying - it will be like a beacon calling out to the people who are a perfect fit, who align with your business and values. And she was SO right! I had wonderful people practically begging to work with me! With past hiring, I would hope I could find just one or two finalists … now nearly everyone is at or above the quality and "fit" of my previous finalists. I'm excited to move forward and begin a great working relationship using her onboarding strategies.

“Run don't walk to Teresa if you want to grow your business in ways you've never even dared to imagine!”

I've know for a while now that I needed to build a real team, not just an outsourced VA that helped out with some things and various freelancers for particular tasks. But, I had no idea how to get started or how to even attract the best person for my company.  I was scared and kept putting it off. All of that drastically changed after working with Teresa. Not only did she simplify and make the entire process do-able, she also blew me out of the water with her to process to utilize the team I was dreaming of in ways I could never imagine.  Through my work with her I had the critical realization that my team wasn't an expense, but an investment that would grow my business even further so that we can have greater impact around the world.  Suddenly there was a-step by-step crystal clear blueprint for my business right in front of me!  Teresa knows team building inside and out, and shares her decades of experience with ease and love. Run don't walk to Teresa if you want to grow your business in ways you've never even dared to imagine!

While working with Teresa, I found her to be a motivated and professional individual who strives to bring both strategic and tactical processes to an organization.

She is a solutions-oriented thinker and is always making decisions to keep things moving towards our business goals.

"I feel heard and understood. That's golden."

Teresa brings an open-hearted approach to her work. The most memorable and important part of working with her is her ability to listen. I feel heard and understood. That's golden. It allows for deep introspection and flow. Teresa hold space in the perfect way. I feel great knowing that she can guide a project to completion because as a solopreneur there are so many things to do that it's easy to get derailed.

"You feel like you actually accomplish something."

It’s so encouraging because with Action Plans, you feel like you actually accomplish something and are making progress toward your goals instead of going down the death spiral of overwhelm.

"She goes out of her way to educate and inspire."

There are many great things to be said about Teresa. She is a leader, a mentor, and an overall wealth of knowledge. Beyond her ability to lead and manage projects for multiple departments, she goes out of her way to educate and inspire. She will sit down individually with you to understand your needs and learning style. Afterward, she will make sure that you are supported and educated on any topic you are interested in learning more about.

"The clarity I had in our phone call, texts, and emails was phenomenal." 

What I learned was how important it is to have a plan (clarity) and how unbelievably valuable it is to talk through that plan with a person who just gets it. The clarity I had in our phone call, texts, and emails was phenomenal. I instantly just felt like I could trust Teresa, I felt how genuine she were, and she was so kind. She understood the position I was in on so many levels.

"The perfect blend of supreme organization and human compassion.”

Teresa was the perfect blend of supreme organization and human compassion. She helped guide all of us to the answers we needed for what felt like an unending series of questions -- often before we knew to ask them.

“I'd trust her with any team, any project, any task.”

Teresa is a straight project management beast. I'd trust her with any team, any project, any task. I love her no-nonsense approach to making things happen, finding the best solution and ability to carve through red tape. 

Within hours of meeting Teresa, I felt instantly comfortable with her. She was a warm heart and is just so down to help. That's the kind of spirit a business needs: those willing to get their hands dirty, even if the task isn't beholden to their objective or team. 

She's a gamer, a keeper of the faith of good people and someone I'd hire immediately if I was a boss.
