“Laura's well rounded background of disciplines puts her in a unique class of individuals who can understand both the needs of individuals throughout an organization as well as the challenges they face. I have found her ability to balance patience, directness, and humor as effective whatever effort she has been engaged. When I worked with her as a functional manager; she addressed business needs and drove results. When I had the opportunity to have her as my coach, I found her insight and guidance invaluable to allowing me to gain greater understanding and control of my personal and professional lives. With Laura's ability to understand what it takes for someone to fill the role of operator, leader, or coach; she is adaptable to any environment. If I had to pick 5 people to go start a company-pretty sure Laura would be one of my first calls.”
