Bio
Callie Murray
Our team hired Theresa to help us with efficiency and implementation of systems. Theresa helped us move projects forward immediately with clarity and excitement, and she made sure we brought each to completion. Even as a consultant, she was such a great addition to our team, raising the level of engagement in Slack and in meetings. We often talk about "The Theresa Magic", and we now always find a way to involve her in projects. She brings clarity and momentum to everything she touches!

We engaged Theresa to do a series of sessions on productivity and time management with our team and she did a fantastic job! Theresa really brought so much value and focus to what can be difficult to talk about. Everyone wants a productive staff, but how to achieve that without making everyone feel like they have to watch the clock can be a tough balance to strike as a leader. Theresa took time to get to know our team and each session was just full of great ideas and things to think about. She pulled together a variety of sources and made each session interactive and fun. We've implemented quite of few of the things we all came up with together and we're already seeing a big difference in how the team handles challenging weeks where there are lots of frogs. We've even incorporated Theresa into our Slack with her own channel and she's become a really valued partner in how we help our team to learn and grow.

Theresa has been fantastic to work with. Her energy and positive attitude are infectious, making her a very in-demand trainer at our company. She has been nothing but flexible when it comes to tailoring the content of the courses she delivers for us. All participants walk away from her sessions having learned something, no matter their experience level. I couldn't recommend Theresa enough as an enthusiastic trainer with engaging and relevant content.
