Upon the recommendation of another technical consulting firm, we contacted Ignite Excellence to present one seminar, and have since invited them back for four additional seminars and have plans for more.

We know that Ignite Excellence has made a difference for us.”

What impressed me most was her ability to formulate the training session to speak to such a diversified group of people.

The three days we spent with Suzanne will kick off a quantum change in what Research House is and what it will be for the future. Suzanne Stevens does great credit to the Environics family.”

“I am hearing a lot of great feedback from everyone about the training. A lot have said they thought it was going to be boring but were glad that you made it so fun. They also felt they learned a lot. Now all we have to do is apply it!! Thanks again for all of your work to make this so successful. We had a pre-campaign meeting this morning and incorporated some of the points you made yesterday about what motivates people to donate. Using these concepts was very helpful.”
