.......... She is articulate, an excellent listener, comes quickly to the heart of a matter, and prescribes workable steps to resolve problems and move to a higher level of function. I would definitely hire her again.

Ank’s work with our staff has led to better communication, more effective meetings, and an emphasis on teamwork.  Ank’s thorough research and attention to quick results helped us gain the trust of employees for longer-term projects.  We’re very grateful to Ank for her contribution and would eagerly work with her again.”

My work with Ank has been nothing short of a lightning strike. It has allowed me to create some of the most important and defining visions for my own career. Her ability to keep me honest to myself has allowed me to re-ignited my own passion in a business that has a tendency to steal it. I honestly feel that without Ank, I would still be beating my head against the wall, wondering how to break a very unhealthy cycle.

... but more importantly, Ank was a role model by showing us, through your actions, what "unconditional positive regard" looks like.......

The more I get to know her and the more I work with her, the more impressed I am! Ank is a charismatic leader who has a passion for facilitating personal or professional growth in others -- and due to this skill as a coach and facilitator, she has been a perfect fit to work the HBA, an organization dedicated to the development and advancement of women in healthcare................At a recent Healthcare Businesswomen Association, Ank was a thought-provoking facilitator, who effectively challenged the participants to think about how they could become the architect of their own careers. Her talent as a speaker and facilitator was evident when Ank skillfully led women leaders who attended to discover their own visions' of what they want their career to be, and then begin planning the steps to get there.................As a result of her value that she has brought to the membership almost immediately, she was voted to serve on the Board of Directors for the HBA, Southern California Chapter, for the 2010-11 years.

....... we learned in order to be effective in life we have to fully understand how we approach life, people and events.  Our personal style is how we show up in the world and how we interact with others.  This program helped the attendees identify their personal behavioral styles and it sparked lots of questions, debate and introspection.  Life transitions begin with knowledge and everyone left this workshop with more self-awareness.
