Given my profession, I have had numerous discussions around different people, why they act as they do, why they did what they did. EVERY SINGLE TIME, Glodean would explain to me possibly where that person was coming from, perhaps what their journey has been, or maybe something more in depth about characteristics. I am always saying, wow, I never thought of it like that, or, that makes complete sense. She is amazing at guiding you not to judge people, but to try and understand people so we can bridge those differences.

Glodean was able to see great abilities within me, more than I could see in myself, and helped bring them out. She taught me that if I believe in something, do it. And if it doesn’t work out, it’s always better to ask for forgiveness.

I had the absolute pleasure working with Glodean as she led a Kaizen Event for one of the most broken, complex, and frustrating process in the organization. I hated my job before she was brought in to work with us and when she left, I not only liked my job a whole lot better but I also had a greater appreciation for my team members, and more respect for my leader. Glodean is a gem and anyone lucky enough to find her should keep her on for as long as they can.
- Brandon, Chief Business Development Officer
It is one thing to be able to come to the right conclusions while solving a problem by yourself, it is another thing entirely to guide a whole group of people into that same way of thinking. This is one of Glodean's many strong suits. If I had to pick one of Glodean's best traits, one that I believe is more important than her unrelenting positive attitude or uncanny ability to meet unrealistic deadlines, it would be her clarity. Glodean's clarity is an invaluable skill that any field can benefit from. - Elizabeth, Engineering Operations Support Supervisor
Glodean can express a concept in as many ways as the listener needs to hear in order to understand. Some people can become frustrated when they aren't being understood-- this is not Glodean. She simply rephrases, compares the concept to something simpler you might understand, and carries on. I wish she worked here instead of being a consultant. She was a huge asset and made a major impact on everyone lucky enough to work with her while she was here improving our broken processes (and leaders). - Stephen, Executive Director
