Challenged with differing perspectives and preferences, working together as a team may create unintended dynamics and friction. After attending Karen’s workshop, my team’s self-awareness on how we interact with each was transformed. The framework covered delicate topics, inspiring suggestions, and thought-provoking behavioral biases. Highly recommend to leaders desiring to take team performance to the next level!

What separates Karen Thrall from other corporate trainers is how she can take heavy topics and bring a levity to them. We were laughing together, yet understanding the very relevant and practical content she delivered. We implemented the training immediately within our ELT. Karen’s training inspired all of us to place the pursuit of being a great communicator as a top priority. An excellent business resource for leaders.

Karen is a professional communicator and changed the culture in my company. She accomplished things that I could only dream of. Karen brought my far flung retail stores under one roof and one banner.

Karen’s most powerful tool is her authenticity combined with her knowledge, skill and experience building great teams. Her ability to bring people together as a team and engage is awesome, and she does it with such fluidity. She quickly gains trust and establishes credibility. Karen’s energy and purposefulness is transferred to people so effectively.

Karen instantly added value to our organization in the first meeting, and has continued in the years since. I am often impressed with how quickly she can understand complex dynamics, and how she helps create simple customized solutions. I would highly recommend her to assist in many areas including: leadership development, communication, staff training, challenging situations and individual coaching.

Karen is a sales whisperer through and through. Her ability to casually disarm our team one by one and her style of sales had everyone engaged and deeply educated by the end of the training. She is a repeat coach at our company, for sure.
