"Karyn was a pleasure to work with - flexible and effective in planning the half-day workshop - especially given the short timing and number of changes during the planning process. I also feel that she was a great role model for the characteristics of being a leader. In particular, she designed the activities to enable the participants to find their own way, and she was a model for encouraging the heart."

"With enthusiasm, I can tell you that working with Npower and their team has been extremely rewarding for Delta Sigma Phi Fraternity and its members. Their work in the design and development of two of our signature initiatives has been invaluable to our membership as we've undertaken an effort to re-focus our organization on what really matters. Specifically, they've been instrumental in all facets of our online personal development experience, The EDGE, and developed the curriculum for our leadership institute."

"I view our strategic planning session a huge success. For the first time ever we were able to bring together all three entities of our organization together for not only strategic planning but strategic thinking. Much of the success I believe must be attributed to the exercises that were developed by Npower that we went through together. This helped to give everyone a much better perspective ("helicopter view") and not just their own view. These sessions were not easy. It was extremely valuable for me to see how different Board members processed the information.
It was a great first step in making us a GREAT organization."

"Thank you for your wonderful presentation at the Development Directors Retreat. Evaluation responses were very positive. One hundred percent of those responding said that the afternoon's sessions met or exceeded their expectations. High praise from a group of tough critics. You provided exactly the afternoon the committee hoped for. I was most appreciative of your patience as we determined exactly what it was that we wanted! Your enthusiasm and presentation style kept the group engaged and looking forward to each new segment during the afternoon."
