Starting at end first, hire Misti, her energy, passion and knowledge is an unbelievable combination that will help you drive whatever agenda you need to achieve. I`ve witnessed it in multiple venues and in multiple arenas...

The feedback we received from a couple of our corporate sponsors was very nice. One sponsor representative said, `Misti presented very relevant information to the corporate audience and with great enthusiasm! I scanned the room several times and witness a big majority of the attendees looking directly at her while she was speaking. She had a high level of audience engagement and her history played right into what Social Settlement is all about.` Another sponsor said all of their employees thought the topic was timely and the message was good.

Misti captures the challenges and opportunities associated with working across generations and helped our strategic leaders understand that diversity is about more than traditional measures such as sex and race. And, she creates understanding that diversity is not just about "fairness" but is an essential enabler in value creation and organizational effectiveness. Her succinct responses to the audience`s questions made the issues clear-cut and unambiguous.

And, it was Misti`s passion that carried the day! She was both vulnerable and believable through her authenticity -- reinforced by her apparent youth.

Misti has worked her magic over the past year with my life/work TEAM and was truly the catalyst, that “spark plug” – if you will - igniting an innovative revolution in our organization. Whether talking to executives or large audiences, she connects in a way few do. She is genuine in her approach which resonates with both Boomers and Millennials. You come away with a real sense of what needs to be done. This is Misti’s gift.

Misti`s groundbreaking strategies will cut through the fog of our often distorted theories and folklore about the hopelessness of intergenerational communication as she paints memorable pictures using authentic examples while speaking with such clarity that you will remember not only the illustrations, but also how to apply those models in other circumstances.

You were such an engaging facilitator at the Management Leadership Team Meeting I recently attended. Your `incredible energy and disarming manner` allowed many attending the session to open up and disclose their true feelings regarding how we could better improve relations with members outside our own age or race demographics...

Misti is as dedicated and passionate about her craft as one can be. The only thing that can possibly rival those traits is the amazing amount of energy she brings into a room. I`m constantly waiting for her to burst into flames! If your organization has a cut in its `line`, Misti is the Master Splicer you need.

Misti is truly an inspirational person who challenges me to be authentic. A true coach by all definitions, full of encouragement yet willing to call your bluff. She is challenging me to be better today than yesterday and make a difference in people’s lives.

Group Sales Manager, AT&T

I can’t tell you all the after-buzz I’ve heard today – reactions to your inspiring presentation last evening! You managed to cause each person in that room not only to be more aware of our individual thinking on the communications dilemma across generation, but to make a conscious decision to re-think where we were and move ahead with this new perspective.
