Bio
Norman Houle, PMP
I worked closely with Marge for over eight years while she was Executive Director for the Maine Technology Users Group (MTUG). Marge’s leadership skills, tenacity, and professionalism helped the board reach its goals to expand our user base, grow the annual technology conference and maintain our viability into the future.

I have been working with Marge for the past several months as an executive coaching client and highly recommend her to my colleagues and friends. As a leader in the finance division at Dartmouth College, I appreciate having an external coach to help work through challenging situations and to improve my leadership abilities. Marge asks excellent questions to gain a thorough understanding of the situation and the players. She provides expert counsel based on her extensive management and leadership experience in a variety of organizations, including non-profit organizations. I continue to work with Marge because I value her input and her guidance. I am becoming a more effective leader at Dartmouth College because of our work together.
