“It was such a delight meeting you and hearing your insightful and inspiring presentation at the UC Berkeley Women’s Initiative Leadership conference! I am inspired by your career story and your strategies for embracing our Flawsome selves – what an empowering concept. Your words resonated deeply with me, and I know many of our UCB colleagues feel the same.

 

Thank you for sharing your time and wisdom with us. You brought so much light to the event, and it was wonderful to see the engagement and thought-provoking conversations that followed your session.”

“Our company contracted with Nectar Consulting to provide professional development training for our diverse staff. With their training, guidance and insightful activities, our staff enhance their ability to communicate with each other, as well as with a variety of clients. The training enhanced the cohesiveness of our team and helped us establish processes and guidelines for working with each other more effectively. 

Specifically, Michele’s guidance enable us to identify and utilize the talents of each member to produce a more efficient work environment. The strategies and engaging activities she utilized proved to be especially effective and enhanced the development of our least experienced staff members and those new to our field.  Her professionalism throughout and the group coaching that followed the initial team training was awesome. We look forward to working with Michele and her team again in the future.”
