TESTIMONIALS

Organizational Consulting

Betsy was able to provide a very simple and streamlined approach to providing a narrative for the very specific work that we do at our non-profit organization. Often times we are doing the work that is in the background and not often able to be brought to the fore front out in a way that is representative of the true heart of the staff and organization as a whole. The process was not yet another thing to add to the to-do list as it was very manageable and easy to complete due to the way that the activities were structured."

Succession Planning & Emergency Transition Management

"I went into Betsy’s Succession Planning session thinking that I had a handle on what we needed to work on for our succession plan. There was much that was shared that reinforced that we have been “doing the right” thing in preparing our succession plan. This was comforting. What I also learned were the areas that we had not focused on and how important these areas are to get right (well-defined job descriptions comes to mind). Collectively, I learned a lot about what I do and DO NOT have in place. I left the session with the energy and direction I needed to make a difference in our planning process."

"Thanks so much for the guidance and insight you provided to the Isles Transition Committee as we undertake the process of selecting a search firm or consultant.  I also appreciate the references and article you provided and your thoughts about how to support our founder during this time of transition."

Strategic Staffing & Performance Management

"Betsy facilitated a meeting which encompassed a large and diverse group of individuals.  Staff members from the store and office were able to interact with one another in a comfortable off-site environment where they were encouraged to share positive feedback through short exercises.  It was the first time that the entire staff met in the same location and for some it was an opportunity to connect in person without interruption.  Betsy was well prepared and encouraged people to participate who were a little reserved while keeping the more talkative individuals on task—not an easy feat!

 

The meeting was scheduled to discuss the analysis of one-on-one interviews with Betsy regarding our non-profit organization’s mission and vision.  We discussed how each person’s values and skills aligned with the organizational ethos.  It was an eye-opening experience to find out how many of the self-identified values overlapped with those of our organization as a whole.  We know that our team feels passionate about the work that we do but the  group and individual exercises reinforced the common cluster of values.  We also gained a new perspective on how others may feel differently based upon prior life and work experiences.

 

I would highly recommend Wallace Leadership Consulting for your human resource and development consulting needs."

Non-Profit Board Leadership Development

"For the past few years, Betsy and I have served as board members on the Rise Community Services Partnership located in Mercer County, New Jersey.  I have been a member for several years and have witnessed a measurable growth and professionalism since Betsy’s arrival and election to Board Vice President.  Her knowledge and understanding of the dynamics of the Rise Board are most impressive. Having served on small ad hoc committees with Betsy evaluating a senior staff member and full board meetings  I can attest to the fact that no matter how large or small a group, Betsy always brings wonderful ideas to the table. In the past few years, our Board has expanded in size, responsibility, and professionalism.  I truly believe that Betsy’s arrival had much to do with our success."
