In their own words: Clients rave about Lynne

It's no secret that Lynne brings a special presence and skill to all she does — and she has brought it to audiences in many industries across the country. Coaching, writing, speaking and consulting on dozens of topics, Lynne has touched lives and helped people change the way that the workplace works for them — often while leading individuals, groups and organizations through difficult passages.

Speaker

We have heard nothing but 'Outstanding'... The overwhelming positive comments we received from the participants sets a precedent for continuing a revisit for you.

— Linda M. Chase, Director, Region VII, American Association for Affirmative Action

In her keynote, "Working In A Time of Joblessness," Lynne stressed the importance of investing in themselves as one would their own business: to embrace the training a company affords staff; read books, magazines, and other materials to stay informed on trends; and become computer literate. Since the conference, I've noticed a significant change in the willingness of some individuals to participate in training and an increased interest in Welfare Reform, their new role in it, and how to prepare.

— CeCe Henry, Adult Services Staff, Development Coordinator, Colorado Department of Social Services

Thank you so much for being a presenter at our recent conference, "Reducing The Cost of Conflict." Every time I see you, I'm in awe!"

— Joleen Stamceyk, Co-Chair, ACCW

Everyone who attended is spreading the word that it was a great session. Thanks again for a great job in keeping the session interactive, insightful and fun.

— Catherine L. Geske, Vice President, Harley-Davidson

Your ratings were excellent. Your content is innovative and cutting-edge. Comments from attendees included: 'Lynne was great!' 'Wonderful. Practical.' 'Lots of ideas to try.' For my part, you were totally professional and a joy to work with.

— Kay D. Johnson, Meetings Industrial Council

Your session was very well-received by the 200 plus who attended... standing room only I might add. Your topic "The Power of a Good Fight" was very current — businesswomen need these skills to excel and advance in today's workplace. Your presentation was content-rich with outstanding take a-ways! If everyone implemented your recommendations, the workplace environment would be much improved. Your presentation skills were terrific — lots of energy, innovation and audience participation. What a woman!

— Lynn Pelz, VP Communications/Public Relations/Events, The Chamber-Colorado Springs

Your luncheon presentation was the energetic change of pace I wanted for our conference. You demonstrated a balance of professional poise and energy. Your presence radiates energy, you have great stories, and you tell them well. Your point about the power of storytelling rings true for me and is a message that the analytical types among us need to hear — Facts Tell and Stories Sell.

— Bruce F. Meaker, President, Northwest Hydroelectric Association

Consultant and Coach

Lynne's presentation, "Leading Through the Storm: The Eagle Perspective," provides practical strategies to counter the "perfect storm" that leaders face today. Leaders have many demands, but the most important is to direct an organization toward its future. Just as the eagle flies above a storm, Lynne shows leaders how to rise above the day-to-day pressures and point employees toward new business opportunities that are coming. I highly recommend this program for every leader and manager.

— Karen Armon, President, Alliance Resources, LLC

Just a note of commendation on the excellent retreat you facilitated for our firm. Your grasp of the problems we needed to discuss, prior work preparing for the retreat, and your facilitation of the retreat were outstanding. Your ability to keep the discussion on track and to summarize in a concise manner the objectives we now need to implement all contributed to the success. You made it not only fruitful, but a fun day as well.

— Stanton D. Rosenbaum, Isaacson, Rosenbaum, Woods Levy

Lynne's presentation was timely, pertinent, tactical, and motivating. She not only revealed a new perspective on what is happening and why we are feeling as we do in our present economic environment, she pointed out the opportunities and tactics. Lynne left us with at least eight things we can do right now!

— Beth Wolfson, Marketing Director, Executive Forum

Rarely have I witnessed the level of interest, awareness, interaction, and openness achieved through your program. Many have said they found the concepts quite valuable, and are eager to put them into practice!

— Paul Buzzotta, Bristol-Myers Squibb

The tools that you shared regarding conflict resolution will certainly be of great benefit in handling some of the difficult situations involving our employees.

— Tammye Walker-Jones, Southwest Airlines

While employed for Liberty Funds Group, I had the pleasure of participating in a customized Diversity workshop presented by Lynne Eisaguirre. Lynne's efforts to learn our unique workplace and group of employees brought a real sense of credibility and trust during the workshop. Lynne's presentation was engaging, collaborative, and every participant walked away with a wonderful sense of new perspectives that would later prove to be very valuable in our work environment!

— Brenda Langley, SPHR, HRM Contractor

Your presentation and ability to weave the themes of our retreat was excellent. It was a perfect reinforcement for so much of what we had been working with.
