She was structured and kept me accountable to sticking to tasks and goals I had set for myself. Betsy is compassionate when I am struggling and patient in helping me overcome obstacles which I had to realize was fear. She was gentle and firm in helping me face the ways I was self- sabotaging myself and my goals. With her help, I have been strong enough to look at different choices I had, and make connections in the community that are helping me with my goals for my life and my business.

The 6 Types of Working Genius TESTIMONIALS
Brian Moscona
"The Working Genius tool has been extremely valuable in helping me understand what brings me joy and energy at work, as well as what frustrates me. It has also been invaluable in building effective teams and putting people in the best roles for themselves and the organization. I think every person will benefit from using this assessment in their professional and personal lives."
Molly Richard
"Before taking the Working Genius assessment, I could not pinpoint why I loved some tasks in my work life but really dreaded others, especially since I like my job overall and the mission behind what I do everyday. After taking the Work Genius assessment and talking through my results with Betsy, I gained an understanding of why some tasks energize me and others drain me. This has given me a helpful framework to communicate with my boss about the types of professional development I'm most interested in and the direction I'd like to take my career based on my own working genius."
