a mindset I've been struggling with for years!"
SK, Merck & Co.
“I came to Resolutions for coaching when
I was in the midst of having to make some major business decisions and choose
the directions I was going to go over the next few years. I was experiencing
feelings of being overwhelmed and confused by too many choices. You helped me
prioritize my choices so that I realized which ones mattered the most to me,
and which ones I could let go of, which lightened my load considerably. You
helped me narrow my focus down to two top priorities, and start coming up with
a game plan for implementing these priorities. I worked with a coach almost a
year ago, yet its value has stayed with me and continues to be a big help!”
DG, Resolutions business coaching client

self-doubt arise. My professional and personal performances have accelerated greatly.
Thanks."

Leadership assessments results:
“Resolutions presented a leadership program to assist us in identifying our individual styles and how those styles can influence our interactions. Though initially skeptical, I was amazed at how much I learned about myself and my peers. Identifying what others need enabled me to adjust my approach to their particular style to strengthen trust, and foster a better understanding of shared goals. As a result, others are more comfortable, cooperative, and motivated. I also learned how to help others understand my management style, which has strengthened my relationships by empowering those I supervise to approach me in an open, non-confrontational manner. With an underlying mutual respect for our differing styles, our discussions are more positive and productive."
Gerardo Maceira, P.E., Township Engineer, Township of Hanover
"I learned a tremendous amount about myself; what and why I am the person I am. It truly was an eye-opening experience."
"I am better able to understand why I and others act and react in the fashion they do."
"Now, when I question others' actions, decisions, etc., I remember where they fell in the DISC, and am better able to understand "where they are coming from"
"I find myself using the DISC in to analyze relationships in general; both personal and professional, which I feel helps me interact more effectively with people"
"The DISC has made me aware of my traits and how they either work with or against my co-workers"
"I accept and make room for other people's traits and judge less"
"I discovered my own traits that get in the way - and I had no idea! Now I know how to flex my style to match the needs of others as well as my needs - and everyone wins!"
"Since the DISC, our team is moving faster through issues and accomplishing more."
"Your leadership training was excellent. You spoke about a subject that each person can relate to: "How to Reevaluate Ourselves to Reach Greater Success". I just attended Steven Covey's class on 'Seven Habits of Highly Effective People' and much of the class expressed just that thought. Your sessions were really great and enjoyable. Thanks."
Janet Durica, GPU

“I had the privilege of working with
Resolutions as a "trainee" of a Leadership Development Program. It
was kicked off with an in depth workshop focusing on leadership styles,
professional goals, objectives, communication, etc. She was a fabulous
presenter and facilitator. She was very skilled at bringing the group together
as a team. I found her to be professional, personable and an expert in her
field with high integrity. I would highly recommend Resolutions for coaching as
well as seminars and employee training. “

more effectively with our business challenges. We are looking forward to your
next training."
Elizabeth Goddard, Coordinator, Dove Industries
"When your leadership development
program started, I did all I could to avoid confrontation. I wanted to keep the
peace and not make an issue out of a small thing. Then you helped me understand
the damage my lack of confrontation was actually creating. Your classes taught
me how to decide what to confront and what to let of. Then it taught me how to
confront people during stressful times. And it's working! Our team is
communicating much more now!"
"After your leadership development program, our Senior Executive
Management work together more effectively and productively. They are
brainstorming and coming up with solutions to problems and situations that had
seemed beyond their control instead of "throwing in the towel" when
trying to work with other "difficult" Senior Management Staff."
"I've noticed a more open minded environment"
"I'm more politically correct and professional in emotionally charged
situations"
"At first I resisted your guidance
on managing conflict. I wanted to keep the peace and avoid hurting anyone's
feelings. Then you helped me realize how much I was hurting people by not
helping them recognize and deal with the "real problems" head
on. Now our team feels safe in discussing emotionally challenging issues
and we work much more cohesively."
"I am more focused and detail oriented. I also worry less and have more
fun on the job - as long as I know I'm prioritizing. And my blood pressure is
lower!"
"I have a greater understanding of WHY people do, say, and act the way
they do."
"I now know how to deal with difficult personalities more positively and
effectively."
“There is more humor in the work environment.”
“Your section on performance reviews took a lot of stress out of the process.”
"During the months of your
Leadership Program, I noticed I started feeling more relaxed. You taught me how
to lighten up and still get things done. My team says I'm less reactive and
more fun to work with. Thanks for opening up my eyes and helping me change some
strong habits!"
"I now set daily goals and a to-do list and it has increased my
productivity levels"
“I have more confidence while communicating to peers and managers, regardless
of their level.”
“With the help of this leadership development program, we have created a
universal method of communication and our culture is shifting.”

relationships and brainstorming abilities.”

leadership training has helped me so much. I've been putting your time
management recommendations into practice and see an increase in my performance
and motivation levels. Your strategic guidelines and techniques are helping me
accomplish more work each day. Thank you for sharing your
experience."
RN, Lucent Technologies

once I applied the techniques I learned in your leadership training, I was able
to relax faster and easier. There is a significant increase in my attitude and
productivity at work. Thank
you."

great. You covered a lot of useful information in a short period of time.
The techniques I've learned have helped me in dealing with stress at work, as
well as outside the workplace. I really enjoyed the seminar. Please come
back."
Carmen Rodriquez, MetLife, Parsippany, NJ
“The program on "Eating for
Energy" changed the lives of my husband and me. We have new eating habits
and are losing weight without dieting! The unexpected additional bonuses since
I changed my eating habits include: increased energy, decreased stress and
improved sleeping habits! I now sleep like a baby on
Valium.”
