Lillian is incredible! I signed up for Maximize HER Leadership workshop, which was for a couple of months, and it was worth it! There was a lot of hands-on experience; I learned new things about myself and learned new leadership tools that I know I will use in the future—Lillian’s private coaching sessions were very helpful.

“With decades of experience, Lillian gives you the necessary tools and facilitates discussions meeting you where you are on your journey and helping you recognize your potential and how far you can go. She does not give you answers but asks probing questions that help you arrive at the “ahas” you seek. Her demeanor is calming and disarming, which forces you to examine issues in their entirety. She has a knack for helping you get ‘unstuck’ in your thinking to appreciate the bigger picture.”

I was a participant in Maximize HER Leadership. The information gained from this course was rich and insightful. It helped me understand myself as a leader, the value I bring to an organization, and my leadership styles. One of the most interesting weeks I enjoyed was going through a case study wearing a CEO hat and understanding what was wrong with the business. I felt like I could come into this program and be myself; it enriched my life personally and professionally.
