Testimonials
“I want you to know how much I enjoyed meeting you, as well as being a part of your “Build Your Cultural Intelligence” workshop. You are both an inspiration and a leader in your work. Thank you for coming to Yale School of Management. Your workshop is very beneficial to our students not only from the recruiting aspect, but also in the classroom, and when the first-years take their ‘International Experience’ trip to various countries. Incorporating the workshop into orientation or the curriculum would be great, and is something I look forward to discussing further with my other team members.”

“Jessica is an engaging professional trainer, and it is delightful to work with her. She is always committed to turning a workshop into a success, naturally connects to participants and motivates them to learn and develop themselves.”
Ursula Brinkmann (German)
Managing Director, Intercultural Business Improvement
“I worked with Jessica on two occasions. The first was where my company was involved in a new project she was working on and we utilised her talents in teambuilding, leadership skills and international culture. We then asked Jessica to design and facilitate another session and align it to our company requirements. This meant that she had to think outside of the course, establish a new presentation and become more focussed on our needs. This she did with great purpose and acheivement and I would thoroughly recommend her for your training (whether it be coaching or international culture) requirements. She is approachable, personable and professional.”
Susan Garley (British)
Head of Operations, American Medical Systems
“Jessica participated as a panelist for two Webinars on Global Career Development and the Job Search for MBA Alumni of The Fuqua School of Business at Duke University. Jessica’s depth of knowledge and expertise regarding the many aspects of international career transition and “Cultural Intelligence”, plus the stories she shared about her own personal and career adventures abroad were invaluable contributions to each session. Alumni greatly appreciated her spot on answers to their diverse questions and the wealth of tactical tips and resources she provided. I will be looking to engage Jessica in the near future to present to our Daytime and Executive MBA students. I highly recommend Jessica as a subject matter expert, presenter and trainer.”

“Jessica has hit the nail on the head. Very soon Jessica realized that I was avoiding an issue in our sessions and she guided me to not only realizing this but pinpointing the issue at hand. Her techniques are creative and adapted to me, the result is an overwhelming astonishment and realization that I am in fact my own keeper and em-prisoner. We are on an amazing voyage on the way to unlocking myself and releasing my fullest potential.”
Roderick Boekdrukker (Belgian-American)
Founder, Humanitat
“I hired Jessica to work with my son Thomas in order to 1) identify a career path he would do well in and enjoy and 2) advise him how to conduct his job search. The feedback I received from Thomas is very positive: he received real and valuable guidance in a pleasant setting in which he experienced very professional and helpful guidance in all freedom, i.e. without having the feeling to be steered or manipulated. Jessica’s contribution was very useful and is highly appreciated. Strongly recommended!”

Her professional and highly positive attitude truly inspired me to focus on what is vitally important in career development. Jessica is also an excellent communicator, by asking some insightful questions, she helped shape and sort ideas and thoughts that furthered those already in my mind. She is intelligent, reliable and personable. I highly recommend Jessica due to her motivational and innovative insight.”
