“Thank you for this program!  Maureen was wonderful to work with--I really hope that this pilot project is successful and the colleagues that I've mentioned that I'm in this project are all very impressed that I work for such a great company!” 

“This should be introduced to moms a couple of months before returning to work. Returning moms should have enough support systems and should also undergo reorientation of the things they need to do at work just like when they put newly-hired people to training. There should also be a program for working moms who are juggling workload and family.”

“Maureen has a very natural and friendly personality that instantly pulls you into the coaching process. My expectation of coaching was that she would have a set agenda for each session and for the overall process, but I was really impressed with her ability to flex to whatever issue seemed to come up at each session. Most importantly, she was able to pick up that issue, even without me sometimes being aware of exactly what it was. That in itself made it a very helpful process to work through.  

Maureen is able to combine a friendliness that helps you to talk easily, with the utmost professionalism that keeps every discussion focused. With every session, there was success on some level, and each session was always a step toward achieving the goals of what I set out to achieve.

Whether someone feels they require the help of a coach or not, I believe anyone would be further ahead with some coaching from Maureen.  I would, without hesitation, recommend working with her to others, and certainly hope I have the opportunity to work with her again.
