There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love. - Washington Irving -

Barbara is HUMAN! I do not know of a single consultant who would give out their telephone number to hundreds of people and say, "Please feel free to call me!" Instead of focusing on our corporate office (where the majority of consultants spend their time), Barbara has traveled with me to even our smallest locations. Our employees are impressed that she is willing to go the distance, and they are always eager for a visit from Barbara.

Testimonials

Barbara Glanz has been a featured speaker at two of my most successful conferences. At both conferences she proved not only to be an asset to the conference, but a dynamic wonder engendering much positive enthusiasm among the delegates with her wit and insight. Barbara endeared herself to the audience with her incredible spirit and exceptionally good information. She is always able to bring her concepts home with very practical situations and examples that everyone can relate to. Her charm is exceeded only by her intelligence.

Barbara's Messages are filled with practical, creative, immediately actionable ideas and excellent content, yet she always manages to speak to people's hearts as well as their heads. I've seen Barbara motivate audiences at all levels within our organization. Barbara's audiences become her friends, and she is willing to be a resource to them long after her presentations are finished.

I would like to express my sincere thanks for the outstanding session you conducted for our IBM management team in Dallas. You truly did help to "regenerate the spirit" in our organization! Your enthusiasm and passion for your work was obvious. The ideas and suggestions you shared on ways to "Send a CARE Package" have helped us to focus on our most valuable asset... our PEOPLE.

Kathy Kendrick,
Business Controls Manager

Here's a no-surprise. Your presentation at our Marketing Seminar was the best part of the meeting, according to the evaluation forms we've received. Everyone loved your talk and - as you could see - responded to your spirited delivery. You sent them home happy, smarter and energized. Who could ask for more from a featured speaker? Thanks for a great job."

Thank you for your heartfelt and enthusiastic presentation. Those who heard you speak left the room with smiles on their faces, songs in their hearts, and renewed appreciation for the beauty in life and those around us. Rosemarie Frey,
Illinois Department of Public Health

Personally I found your session to be one of the best presentations I've experienced in my many years as a faculty member and program director at the University of Wisconsin's Management Institute.

The day after your presentation I was out in the Detroit metropolitan area running errands and doing some last minute holiday shopping. As a result of the contagious enthusiasm that you spread the prior day, I made it a point to go out of my way to make conversation with others in the attempt to have each of us go our separate ways having been made a better person because of our encounter! I ended up having the most delightful day and met a lot of interesting people. Most conversations lasted only a few seconds as we passed in the grocery aisle. One lively conversation lasted over ten minutes as we waited in line at a crowded department store. Each and every contact I had was happy and upbeat as we "shared good news!" And we all have you to thank for sharing your ideas and enthusiasm!"

Barbara's hard work in preparing for this program paid off. She kept our studio and satellite audience enthralled with her stories of creativity and positive workplace experiences. Barbara not only went the extra mile in giving me as producer "added value" by suggesting many different graphics to use, but also produced a workbook for this program that was sent to all of our subscribers -- a workbook that easily contained twice the information we would usually get from a presenter in this instance."

Hello. Hello. I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your session last week at the ASTD Conference. It is truly wonderful to see that there are others who are trying to keep the workplace light-hearted and fun. It is all too easy to get bogged down with the corporate rat race. We as trainers are always looking for ways to keep things excitable and fun for our participants, and it seems that you have hit the nail on the head. Tom Heffron

We brought Barbara is to give three full-day sessions to allow all of our staff to participate. Response of staff was very favorable. As part of her program, Barbara had staff identify barriers to providing good customer service and also things we could do to enhance customer service. These lists were provided to the program sponsor for follow-up. Barbara's impact on staff was so positive that some began implementing the ideas even before we got all the lists compiled and could formulate an action plan! I rate Barbara's presentation as "excellent" and strongly recommend her to you.

Superb! Moving! Exhilarating! That's the way I would describe Barbara Glanz.

Barbara Grimsgard,
Director of Education & Meetings
Chicago Society of Association Executives

Barbara captivates her audience with both her message and her delivery. Her passion and her enthusiasm elicit full participation. Those who listen to her cannot help but be drawn into the positive atmosphere that she creates. And the impact is not merely for the moment, but has far-reaching and long-lasting effects. She plants the seeds into her audiences' mind that allow them to grow and develop a "new spirit" of understanding, caring, and ultimately of productivity and profit in their workplace.

You made me laugh, you made me cry, and you made me think. Thank you and God bless!

You have a way of crystallizing the key concepts in ways that people can both understand and make actionable, regardless of where they might be on the organizational chart. You also do a great job of engaging participants in their own learning. The interactive elements you weave into a session give people a chance to share their own insights and dilemmas in ways that build on the context you've created.

Your evening speech "put the exclamation point" on the day! To a person, we have had nothing but good comments from both the Princeton and the Dallas audiences. I am convinced that the application of your simple, but powerful principles to customer interactions went a long way to reminding us how important each of us is as an individual in affecting our clients' perception of our organization's value. You made us "step back from the trees and see the forest."
