“We discussed not using an implementor which would have been a mistake. Deb was not only a vital part of the facilitation process she dug into the issues with the team. We realized the value of Deb’s knowledge and she quickly started consulting and leading additional projects. We hired Deb to help us focus on the reconstruction of process within Finance, Operations and HR. She supported our Business Development and Marketing team with consulting on rebranding and website deployment as well as social media campaigns. However, above all her knowledge and experience, Debs real value is her character. Deb is easy going, listens well, is objective and challenges you with a soft voice and calm demeaner. She engages because she cares about the company’s success and that is something you cannot put a price tag on……”

-Jason Case, CEO Case FMS

“In the time we’ve worked with Deb, we have reached a new level of leadership team maturity with an increased ability in planning communication, mentorship, and accountability. Our culture is strong and our ability to execute efficient. Scaling Up partnerships have allowed us to strengthen our People practices (TopGrading), our financial disciplines and business metrics.”

-Steve Silverstein, CEO Tree-Free Greetings

“I recently bought out my business partner of 20 years and became the sole owner of my company. It’s been a turbulent time and we’ve had to re-think everything, from defining our culture, the way in which we do business and how best to approach sales and marketing. I can’t imagine doing it without our implementer Deb guiding us along the way with the leading tools and techniques she introduced and taught us.”

-Chrystine M. Heier, Visionary, Sullivan Benefits

“Of any accomplishment I feel proud of, its the strength of my company culture. As we've grown, Deb helped us establish organizational clarity and alignment using the accountability chart; now the team knows who is responsible for what. We’ve developed core values that guide our company and use them during the hiring process to determine if a candidate will be a good fit within our company. We also use them to evaluate our current employees to ensure we have the right people in the right seats.”

-Jeff Allain, Visionary, New Economy CPA

“It’s interesting for me to think about our ‘before and after picture’ of working with Deb. Some of the things that stand out to me are the establishment of an accountability chart which downsized an oversized leadership team and brought clarity on every level to our organization, Introduction of a Meeting format and discipline throughout all the levels of the bank, A significantly improved planning cadence and methodology from the Board of Directors through to each of the departments that created alignment and the development of a pragmatic, usable bank playbook for all our major processes.”

- Anne La Pointe Executive Vice President, BankProv

“Working with Deb during the last five years has really helped us streamline our processes and priorities. We are a growing practice and what was once overwhelming now feels under control. I especially have seen results from the people management tools she introduced; for me they have improved the culture of the firm and my ability to recruit dramatically....”
