Amber is a strong influencer, and has a knack for empowering those around her. In our first conversation (within an hour of meeting), she helped me to find a powerful new way of describing my professional work. This perspective transformed my approach to projects and my relationships with clients. Over the years, Amber’s coaching helped me to gain clarity in my career goals, create a plan of action to develop my skill set, and build the confidence that I needed to make some critical moves. I recommend working with Amber and her team to anyone who could use a fresh perspective and energized path forward.

I have known Amber for several years through her work. Amber has facilitated a number of different programs for our division and for my team. I’ve had the opportunity to attend all manner and number of trainings over the course of my career. I have therefore seen many different levels, types and styles of facilitators. Amber is among the very best regardless of subject matter. She is bright, engaging, and energetic and someone who knows her material inside and out. Furthermore, Amber’s ability to accurately assess groups, individuals, group dynamics and strengths and to recommend ways to capitalize on those strengths and dynamics is remarkable.

Amber has a keen sense of self-awareness which for me is core to another quality – self confidence. Amber is able to express her ideas without alienating or shutting down others. She is a skilled facilitator and brings out the best in others, even when ideas may run counter to her own. This too is a great example of Amber’s balanced approach. She is able to express her opinion and draw out other perspectives while being assertive and approachable.

Amber is a star facilitator and collaborator! She and I spent some time planning a Global Insights session for a virtual team I had led that was made up of relatively tenured and new members. She inquired about the specific areas that I thought were most important to address and she structured the sessions to achieve a perfect blend of classroom-style training and individual and small-group exercises. The result was an impactful experience of increased self-awareness and improved working relationships that helped the team achieve its goals.
