Bio
Matt Bright
I had the pleasure of working with Shandell as we went through a large change in our operating model. The training materials and mentoring that Shandell offered was excellent and gave credence to the changes that were occurring. She created excellent learning materials and delivered them in an engaging manner that made for meaningful conversations. I found myself engaged during her meetings in a way I typically am not for others.
Heidi Lahart
Shandell is the best! She is fun and funny and engaging and is probably the best facilitator I’ve experienced. I can’t to take more of her workshops in the future. I worked with her at Amazon and took her classes at Unify and she brought joy and mentorship to us all.
