Michelle recently presented a workshop on Strengths-Based Leadership to our Board. The workshop focused on how each member of the Board could use her individual strengths to work together as a Board during the upcoming year and to lead the organization. Michelle was articulate, insightful, extremely professional, prepared and motivating. Each member of the Board left the training feeling empowered and confident in their ability to lead. As a Board, we felt as if we had really learned about one another and how we can use our strengths to work together in the upcoming year. Her presentation far exceeded my expectations for the retreat. We look forward to welcoming Michelle this year to present a training to the entire membership of our organization.
