Reviews from my clients...
"As the former Executive Director for a $55MM Community Foundation, with a difficult team dynamic we were unable to resolve, we hired Judy Whalen. By implementing the Xyte program, we learned about our communication and personality differences and were able to decrease tensions occurring from misunderstandings. With communications on the right track, our strategic planning process became more efficient. Judy walked us through procedures and conversations, smoothing out the process of creating a positive future for the foundation. Judy was also hired as my executive coach. Through one-on-one sessions, she identified and refined my leadership skills. Most importantly, I am now more aware of my personal style and can work confidently within my natural leanings…no longer struggling to be someone else. Five years later, I still hear her teachings about embracing who I am, being aware of my capacity and proud of my accomplishments. I am certain I would not be the leader I am without her help."
Ann Heiden
Executive Director
"I had been wanting to create a formalized speaking offering for my marketing firm Tingalls Graphic Design for years. But the idea was overwhelming to me and I had no idea where to start. I attended Judy's workshop and her simple three-step process helped break down the larger goal into smaller, "bite-sized" tasks I was able to complete over just a few weeks. As a result, I have six confirmed paid speaking engagements in 2023 and I couldn't be more thrilled!"
Tara Ingalls
Owner, Tingalls Graphic Design
"I cannot express my gratitude enough for all the work you have helped us accomplish through our strategic planning endeavor! Your presentation skills at the board meeting were outstanding.
