We brought Maureen in to train and inspire our whole organization around ‘Embracing a Culture of Feedback’ and mission accomplished! Maureen invited us to broaden the conversation around individual and team performance improvement by embracing an overall culture of feedback beyond annual performance reviews alone. In the training sessions she led with the team, she provided us with the tools to conduct the helpful and sometimes hard-to-have conversations ("Crucial conversations") all year long. Her program not only improved our conflict-management skills, but also enhanced the culture of trust and transparency at SJN. We look forward to continuing the conversation with Maureen!

Meeting Maureen was one of the best things that has ever happened to me. She has been like a guardian angel for me throughout the ever confusing and grueling job search process. Her career coaching has helped me identify my strengths and passions, and how to best utilize each of them. Maureen also has helped me wrestle with some work/life balance challenges I faced in deciding what industry to go into and when best to dive into the working world. She listened to my thoughts and aspirations and dissected them in a way that made my jumbled thoughts turn into a clear and achievable plan. Maureen is the most caring, inspiring, encouraging, and supportive person, anyone would be lucky to have her as their career coach and I could not be more proud to call her my mentor.

Maureen presented her outstanding program, "The 25th Hour", to our global team within Arbonne and helped everyone really get that time is about choice, and that we have enough. She went beyond a typical discussion about productivity into offering up simple, concrete tools to help us better manage and honor our time. One team member emailed me afterward to say, “Omg what a call! Was driving the whole time and got so involved that I missed my exit for the LIE! So it was Sunrise Highway all the way back. Thank you so much for facilitating that call Kristin. How very powerful it was.“ We look forward to working with Maureen again on one of her other leadership programs.

Maureen and I partnered together to create the first mentoring program at mcgarrybowen - a volunteer -based program that built mentor/mentee relationships in order to foster professional growth and build additional support systems within our organization. At the beginning of developing the program, Maureen identified a need to educate employees on the importance of these relationship and mentoring as a whole. She worked with HR on building out educational sessions that focused on helping people understand what you can get out of the program, and helped reinforce that education annually. Maureen also initiated quarterly cross-discipline panels - where chosen senior leaders with the agency could speak about their own experiences in their careers around certain topics like "providing constructive criticism" and "mentors in my career", etc... These panels provided mentees a chance to not only get to know our leaders better and interact with them - but see how they used those experiences to grow and learn. The feedback we would received from mentees on the panels was always positive and mcgarrybowen continues leveraging these panels today. As head of Account Services, Maureen identified a need to bring the department together on a monthly basis to communicate Agency updates department wide, as well as have the various Account teams present work and news around their latest campaigns. This broke down silos between the teams and created a camaraderie within the department. Maureen also championed various learning and development programs for the account department - such as AAE bootcamp and presentation skills. Overall Maureen was a wonderful collaborator, team player and optimist. Even in tough situations she would power through, and would always see the positive in everything. She was a pleasure to partner with!

KRISTEN | Managing Director


I had the good fortune to work with Maureen at mcgarrybowen. During a challenging period of rebuilding at the agency, she stood out as a torch bearer. Maureen led with the winning combination of heart + smart. Her authenticity and enthusiasm was contagious. We facilitated a number of training, development, and mentor events that drew large groups of employees together to learn about the professional journeys of our senior leaders. I admired Maureen's willingness to share her own experiences, both good and bad. She's a caring and insightful leader that will move the needle with anyone lucky enough to work with her.

SARAH L&D | Recruitment | CSR


I met and worked with Maureen at the very beginning of my advertising career while she was an executive level, global director. While it wasn't her "role" per se, Maureen's unique style of listening, SEEING and, ultimately, coaching me has lasted over 10 years. What she shared with me back then sparked a personal journey and transformation to embody the leader I've truly always been — the person she saw from the very beginning. Talk about IMPACT. 

I'm incredibly grateful to have worked with Maureen and to know her as a leadership coach truly walking the talk. Anyone who connects with Maureen will be led through a process of returning to self, so that your career, lifestyle and way of being is reflected in great magnitude externally. Maureen is inspirational, strategic and authentic — pretty much everything you want in a coach!
