We’ve learned about each other, our working styles, the best ways to effectively communicate, and how to deal with issues as they arise. Jill has helped me approach various challenges from angles I had not considered and introduced me to curated content that I have found invaluable. Jill is thoughtful, direct, and wise.”

Coach, Mentor, and Sounding Board
“Jill has worked with my executive team and myself for the last four years. She has brought her expertise in the Rockefeller Principles as well as her knowledge from years of working in business. Not only does Jill apply the tools, plans and metrics within the Rockefeller System of business, but she brings more to the table in a very organized and thoughtful manner. She is prepared to provide the group with tools that are designed to challenge our approach to decision-making and challenge our strategic thought process along the way. She has been available for our team as a resource in coaching, mentoring, and as a sounding board for a variety of business or personal related topics as well. We have a very strong and balanced Executive team, and Jill has contributed her own opinions and expertise as a piece of our team.”

Bringing a High Level of Accountability
“Jill has helped us navigate change management with our recent reorganization in our Defense Business Unit and the initial stages of our continuity planning from 3rd Generation to 4th Generation. She takes time to understand the key players around me and uses empathy to identify and explain patterns, strategize on appropriate issue/opportunity navigation, and anticipate potential roadblocks. She is an excellent listener and will challenge me when she feels an issue is larger than what I may perceive it to be. She is very fair and holds me to a high level of accountability while genuinely wanting me and my business to succeed. Jill is intentional, empathetic, and thorough.”
— Audrey Darley, VP Defense of Audrey Darley Welch

She has been very helpful in bringing accountability to a team, helping to ensure that everyone is making forward movement. Jill has also been instrumental in assisting our team in defining our BHAG and then helping us trace the steps and micro-actions that it will take to accomplish our goals. Jill is strategic, punctual, and supportive.”

Priceless support during a Period of Rapid Growth
“Jill came to our business at the perfect time and has been such an asset in ushering my company to the next level. Talman was experiencing rapid growth, and while exhilarating, it was also intimidating as a young business owner. Jill helped foster focus to the bigger picture while also guiding me through the next stage of leading my company. She has been an invaluable resource to me and my leadership team.”
— Katherine Latham, CEO and Co-Founder of Talman Consultants, Inc.
Helping Our Team Become More Effective
“Working with Jill is a pleasure. There is no ‘cookie cutter’ approach. She listens well and picks up on the dynamics of our team and has been very flexible in accommodating what our organization needs. In addition to the work with our leadership team, she is also providing one-on-one coaching, which for the individuals she’s working with has been insightful. Like a good counselor or coach, she provides a lens through which we become more self-aware and effective as leaders.”

Turning Great Ideas into a Reality
“At Home Run Inn we've learned that coming up with great ideas and good strategic direction isn't that hard. Many companies have great ideas, but the real the challenge in leadership is can you communicate and execute on those ideas? Execution is the difference between an average company and a great company that can scale. Jill has been instrumental in helping our organization understand and learn the concepts and tools necessary to execute our plans and visions. I've never been more optimistic about our company's growth trajectory as I am now with Jill as our coach.”
— Daniel P. Costello, CEO of Home Run Inn
