Colleagues describe them as "Shandel is a prolific speaker that brings professional savvy, humor, and a (sometimes tough-love) life coaching sensibility to each of her talks. She blends a no-nonsense progressive approach with a warmth and caring that makes you feel as though the content of her presentation was customized specifically for you. Her speaking is equally motivating to move you forward from current struggles, and inspiring to drive you toward achieving your future potential. The heart behind the content is self-evident, Shandel revels in helping achieve clarity and confidence for all who hear her. In short, to hear Shandel speak is to get a compact life-coaching lesson delivered in an immediately applicable format. I would not be at all surprised to see her on the TED Talk stage someday!" and "Shandel is a brilliant-minded coach who cuts through confusion with good questions and sharp insight. She understands people, their personalities, needs and interactions incredibly well, and utilizes this ability to address the murkier aspects of relationships (professional, personal, and especially in team-settings) and provide practical solutions for people who are "stuck" working on a task or with other people. She provides positive perspective, but is also focused on resolving issues rather than ignoring them. She is incredible in conflict resolution and helping people to understand and respect others' perspectives and needs."
