Testimonials... 

"Working with Tom has been a game-changer for us. As a new school, we’ve grown in the right direction because of his guidance. Personally, I’ve grown as a leader thanks to his trainings—I owe much of my professional development to him."
— Kelly Painter, Director, Bradford Prep School

“Just wanted to share a quick success and say thank you! After attending your Zoom session Thursday afternoon, I had to address a teacher the next morning who had been struggling with negativity and occasionally lashing out when expressing frustration. Your 7-step strategy to leading and communicating with difficult people gave me the confidence and tools I needed to approach the conversation calmly and constructively.

I realized I had made the mistake of letting issues pile up too long (EEK!), but I’m so glad I finally spoke with her. The conversation was eye-opening—I learned some valuable insights about her communication style that will help us move forward.

All in all, your framework saved the day!”

— Kayla A. Woods, Elementary Assistant Director, Piedmont Community Charter School
