What Clients Are Saying

Paula Sheppard, CEO of NLOWE

The board governance training we did was fantastic. It was especially useful when we talked about conflict of interest and board members working on the organizations contracts.

We now have a clear understanding as to why we do not do business with our board members. We are all now thinking more strategically and better understand the role of management vs. governance.

M. Tucker

I felt that the exercises were a very good part of the session. This made all of us think about some of the hard questions with respect to the role of management and board members.

This approach is more practical and hand-on and works much better than lecture style.

Julie Kavanagh

Dr. Kelleher-Flight’s presentation helped us meet our conference goal by providing information to benefit delegates in their respective businesses. We were very pleased with the positive comments on your workshop.

Lori Donovan

I found Dr. Kelleher-Flight to be very informative and engaging. What could have been a very tiring session was actually energizing.

Dr. Kelleher-Flight’s knowledge of strategic planning was excellent. I learned a lot. She kept us on task and within the timelines.

The goals of each session were reached. We also began to think about what kind of board we are (which is very important to us at this time). Overall, I found it very useful. Thank you.

Hubert Langdon

Dr. Kelleher-Flight is very knowledgeable on the subject of governance.

She kept us focused on the task at hand and involved us in the discussions on each aspect of governance. She quite willingly and capably answered our questions. She makes the distinction between governance and management quite clear.
