Allianz’s national women’s network has been a proud partner with In Our Shoes over the years. The Gutsy Leadership sessions led, were designed to help women own their authority and succeed in the corporate world. The value we’ve taken away are still very much present in discussions today!

Another excellent training session – thank you so much! The program was chock full of so many actionable tips and strategies. Our employees have already submitted their evaluation forms and gave it top ratings!

I also really enjoyed the  keynote presented at Dewberry. We could really feel the excitement and warmth in the room even virtually. I felt like I was there! The way the hybrid video was set up with sound was extremely effective. I literally have sticky notes all over my desk now. Very inspiring - thank you!!

Karen Bouchoux, Director of Training Dewberry

Working with In Our Shoes was a delightful experience. You were highly responsive and considerate of my company's needs while carefully tailoring the training for the attendees. Your accommodating and easygoing approach was a breath of fresh air, and the training program developed was both engaging and informative.

Our leaders gained invaluable skills for developing their high-potential team members. Many of them had never participated in a workshop like this before, and they felt highly motivated to apply these new tools immediately. The attendees learned how to delegate more effectively, ask for feedback, and shift their mindset to embrace challenges while leading their teams.

Life is 10% of what happens to you and 90% how you react to it. One of the biggest takeaways I took from our coaching is that if something is not working then take action and trust your instincts. I knew where I wanted to move, but I also needed to find a new job and strong support on how to execute my plan. Staying positive, and staying the course with a plan is not easy to do on your own. In less than three months I secured the job I wanted, switching to a new industry in Financial Services and moved to a community where I held no contacts.  I needed a “just go for it” push.

The leadership development and communication trainings led for our Human Resources department, was a BIG success. I personally got a lot out of it as did our entire HR team.

What I love about your programs, is that they don't  just tell professionals what to do in order to advance in their careers.  You consistently gives concrete examples of frequent scenarios that employees can relate to at all levels. The exercises engage and are followed up by specific actionable strategies that we can immediately implement in our careers. 

In Our Shoes has led training programs  for my firm since our first meeting where I attended as a guest participant at an event held for American Express. Once again Marisa delivered with actionable content, gutsy strategy tools and experiential engagement across our offices.  We still hear women “going  gutsy” everyday by using these same strategies when they communicate at work.

Cara Fleisher, Managing Director RBC

The Own Your Authority Deep Dive program was a much needed shot of adrenaline for me.  Coming here to this community and having these conversations where you are looking towards your professional future, gives you hope that you can create what you want and exactly how. Marisa talks you through work situations to prepare you to have the tough conversations you need, because you have thought it through ahead and were exactly what I needed.
