Testimonials
At Leadership Bridges, we really get to know our clients. And many will send notes and letters long after our engagement is complete to let us know how much our services have meant to their organizations - and sometimes to them personally. Below are some recent examples. Enjoy.
From satisfied customers:
Truly enlightening and inspiring material presented in such a professional and productive way. I am still blown away by how you captured it all, Florence. This plan perfectly outlines the actionable items that can take us to the next level.
Mrs. Tandy stepped into a very difficult situation in which she immediately identified internal problems, inefficiencies, and lack of internal controls. She implemented corrective actions and streamlined multiple departments in a relatively short period of time.
In addition to satisfying [our industry standards] the training and the interactions among participants served a much more important function. It [helped board members and staff recognize that the agency] is important to our communities. Everyone must take care of business and do their part because so many people really do need our help!
[Florence's] insight and analysis was absolutely invaluable. Her deep knowledge, leadership skills, and guidance were an absolute must at a time of critical importance. Florence is very much a results-oriented individual, while easily assimilating into a team structure.
Quite frankly, she is the "gold standard" for executive level consultation services.
I recently worked with Leadership Bridges in a crisis management situation. The leadership they provided was brilliant. This crisis would have resulted in a much different outcome had it not have been for the instinctual flair this organization has for identifying the root problem and directing the team on the path to resolution.
[Florence provided] leadership that is balanced, supportive, marked by excellence and integrity. I learned a lot by watching [her].
From strategic planning participants:
She listened and spoke very little except to ask prompting questions. With very little speaking she drew an incredible amount of honest information out of the team. It was by far the most productive and fulfilling meeting I have ever been.
She seemed comfortable with our silence while we were thinking. She was accepting of our ideas and concerns.
From coaching clients:
I didn't realize how much of an impact you had on me until the last few weeks. Just the small things that you did have helped me tremendously in tough situations.
Thank you for being such a wonderful teacher.
I can't thank you enough for everything you have done for me. You have boosted my self-esteem and confidence, allowing me to be more successful in my position. [Your insights gave] me a different approach toward my work environment. Thanks for always believing in me.
You've helped me more times than I can count, and you've listened to me. That means the most to me. You've given me confidence in what I am doing. I will take everything you have taught me an move on confidently.
[Florence] was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and helpful. She was an incredible listener, and always had solutions that had everyone’s best interest in mind. This boosted our confidence as a whole, and with greater confidence came greater productivity.
She made everyone feel equal and respected. She was a great leader and a great resource for our agency. She knew when to help an employee and when to challenge them.
From workshop participants:
I think back often to your workshop . . . and the tips and techniques shared in our small group and by the group as a whole help greatly in working through and being able to move forward. (email received from participant in a 2019 Workshop on Mission Fatigue)
Great insights and ideas.
[The Governance workshop] was great. Very complete. [Florence] was very knowledgeable.
Best session so far!
