“Irene identifies needs and is able to fill them
effectively. I have observed others in the role she was
in when we worked together, and she both set and
delivered upon the highest standard for office staff and
clients. She takes a well-rounded approach which, in
the end, provides comprehensive and logical solutions.
Plus, other skills, including computer literacy, help
her be more productive than others. Finally, as a
seminar leader or trainer, she strikes a fine balance
between delivering the required information and meeting
the individual needs of the attendees. I believe this
is because she is well-informed and well-educated in
addition to having strong, natural communication
skills. One final point, Irene has fantastic energy and
a ready laugh!”
Former manager in a career center
“An
ultimate desire for Irene is to leave her professional
mark upon the world. I have known Irene for over 10
years and each of those years she has continued to climb
a new rung on the ladder of success. Albeit volunteer
work, Peace Corps, mentoring a non-English speaking
person, joining a new organization or even learning a
new skiing technique, she displays the will to succeed
unmatched amongst mere mortals.”
Former co-worker
“Irene is a people person who loves working with others
and helping them learn new things for find their own
path. She also seems to love connecting others in ways
that are meaningful to them. In this way, Irene is a
natural networker and influencer, bringing people
together for a common cause --- and achieving measurable
results.”
Former manager
Thank
you so much for your excellent and stimulating
presentation last week. I thought your presentation went
over well capturing the imagination of the audience and
providing them with some concrete ideas about how to
improve their "gendered performances" in the job
search. Your topic is not one usually presented in a
networking group but I believe you may start a new
trend. In fact, I think it is a topic that will be of
particular interest to the many women's networking
groups, and this topic may become your "differentiator"
that helps spur the growth of your speaking and
counseling practice.”

“Thank you. I enjoyed working through this process with
you. … I haven't had a lot to do with HR, except for
this hiring process, but I certainly felt you brought
something very positive to our organization.. I know
this was only a temporary-contract position, but can
only hope the individual coming in brings the same level
of professionalism and knowledge that you brought to the
position.”
Partnered with this hiring manager on his recruiting
need
“Our
client’s completed evaluation gives me hope that today
could be a good day! Not only are her evaluation marks
great, but there are good comments. In addition to the
evaluation, in her email she said, "Working with Irene
was quite inspiring." What a nice way to start the
week!
Thank
you again! I can only hope that we have more clients to
send your way!”

“That
was a prize performance last night. You did a lot for
the new members. You showed them how they can bring
their work and growth into Toastmasters. You gave them a
greater understanding of using a Power Point
presentation the right way. They may have not known that
but I feel that it needs to be mentioned next meeting
you weren't married to the machine. Believe me I paid
someone who did a presentation and it amounted to
nothing but reading off the screen. Each member last
night walked away with something they could use and
apply in everyday life. Thank you.... that's a high
quality mark that all our members to be able to judge
themselves by. Good job.”
Toastmaster Colleague
“I
am writing to thank you … for the time and energy you
put into the “Learn How to Market Your PCV Experience in
Your Job Search” event. Several participants have
repeatedly thanked me for hosting the event, which could
not have happened without your efforts. I particularly
appreciated your ability to pull together a great and
diverse team of career professionals, along with the
presentation, resources which should serve the BARPCV
participants well for their short and long-term career
search needs.
