I had the pleasure of working with Theresa in several different contexts (business, non profit, education), and every time she impresses me with her ability to engage and facilitate individuals and teams, whether it’s around innovation, design thinking, sales, or organizational culture. She’s awesome at working with people and building their own capabilities.

Working with Theresa is a joy due to her highly collaborative style and expertise across many subject areas. She has an extensive array of frameworks, knowledge sources, and human connections.

Theresa Ward is very easy to describe and even easier to recommend. She has dedicated her life to helping others be successful. Her enthusiasm is contagious. She has a flair about her. She has 'it'. Honest, reliable and trustworthy, her word is her bond. She cares deeply about her workmates and her clients. She will always ask the very important questions and the tough questions. What you see is exactly what you get and what you witness is absolutely real. I will always be proud of Theresa and thankful for her contribution to my life.

Steve Barger Founder, The Barger Group

Theresa is a powerfully open person who consistently encourages people through complex business and social situations. As a strategic partner, her ability to take on all of my tangents and make directional sense of them is an art form few people have. As a facilitator, her levity and energy pull people and ideas into the conversation. All of these skills combined make her an incredible friend and collaborator, a thoughtful team player, and a leader very worth of following.

Shelton Davis Founder, Empathy Lab

Theresa has been a fantastic partner and an asset to our organization. She has the ability to assess the needs of our employees and business in a way that is comprehensive. She has designed, developed and executed training sessions for our business that not only were well received, but also drove sales results. She has the ability to communicate effectively with our sales organization and relate training to real-life scenarios. Her training approach is well thought out, strategic in nature, and delivered flawlessly.

Douglas Mearkle Senior Vice President, TD Bank

I love working with The Fiery Feather! Theresa is a great thinker, an outstanding communicator, and an inventive problem solver. She’s got a keen understanding of process, knowing when and how things can go off the rails. And even more important, she’s a student of human psychology and organizational design, so she works with emotional intelligence (and grace under fire) to solve all kinds of business problems.
