“Tenice was extremely helpful and insightful over this past year.  To say that I was resistant to a coach suggested by HR is an understatement.  However, I found the experience of working with Tenice to be uplifting.  I had doubts, but over time realized that I had someone to help as a guide through the uncertainty and betrayal felt from the company – Tenice’s help was invaluable.  Additionally, the process she used was a true outlet, and extremely thought-provoking. 

The company definitely made the right decision in the situation when they hired Tenice! “
