Through our work with her, we became stronger leaders, and banded together to become a high-performing transformative team.”
Leadership Excellence magazine, which ranks top thought leaders in management and leadership, named Eileen to its “Excellence 100” list. Following a survey of 22,000 business professionals, the research firm, Global Gurus, named her to its list of the World’s Top 30 Leadership Professionals.

“You are not a speaker; you’re an experience (and great fun). And the message was so important. I’m already thinking differently.”
Bob Lund, Chairman and CEO of Egistics Inc.
“Your dynamic, thought-provoking presentation really prompted us to reassess our thinking, and more importantly, our acting. Not only did you touch on our problems head-on, you also gave us down-to-earth, important ways to make our lives better, less stressful, and self-directed. The participant evaluations for your presentation were outstanding. Everyone loved you and rightly so; you gave us a sense of direction!”
