Shari is a Certified DISC Consultant. What are your chances of connecting well with

another person? On average, two people have about a 40% chance of experiencing a good

personality match based on how their personality styles naturally fit together. That means that,

most of the time, two people are likely to have a built-in challenge in relating well with each

other – UNLESS they understand each other’s personality styles. Personal and business success

hinge on effective communication with others.

Why GUESS and take your chances in relationships when you can KNOW your personality style

and the personality style of those around you? Our personality assessment and report reveals

your personality style and helps to guide you connect with others in a much better way.



Recommendations

“Shari's Leadership Training at our Hotel has been invaluable. We started 6 months ago with our

initial RT training with her and saw immediate results the first week with our Management team

supporting each other more and actually looking forward to weekly RT's. Round two was last week

and we are still discussing the effectiveness of our Coaching & Counseling training. It's great to see the

Managers have such confidence since our Leadership Training and the resources Shari provided as a

guide. Shari custom fit our Leadership training to meet our specific challenges and needs for our

Management and Executive Teams. The entire team has mentioned how comfortable they felt

opening up to Shari and how authentic Shari is. Shari has really made a difference to our Management

Team by providing us all with not only her Leadership training, but her on-going guidance and

resources she provides. This is definitely the best Leadership Training I have ever found or been part

of. Shari makes relationships and the rest just easily falls into place. I would highly recommend her for

any team looking for a fresh and fun approach to any team training or motivation. Her "outside the

box" form and genuine concern makes the difference between boring training and actually looking

forward it.”

Bernadette Leehy Human Resource Director at Ramada Plaza Hotel, Convention Center & CoCo Key Water Resort “You have a great leader in Shari! John (Maxwell) and I hand-picked her for this position (Global Praxis) because of her results and leadership within the John Maxwell team community.” Paul Martinelli, President of John Maxwell Team “I recently had the pleasure of working with Shari. She was my mentor and leadership coach for the Contact At Once Sales Leadership Team. Her passion and mentorship has meant a great deal to me and I've learned far more than I ever imagined I would. She strives to bring out the best in all of us and help her clients grow professionally and personally. The leadership skills and principles that she teaches has helped me tremendously. I highly recommend her program for all companies looking to help their employees reach their development potential. Thank you again Shari!” Randall Garey Regional Account Executive- Contact At Once “Let me start by saying you are one amazing lady and I am a better person for having the opportunity to meet and to listen to you. Your journey is an amazing story but your heart is a sign of hope to others and will be for many years to come. I know your Success in 4D was and will continue to be a huge success.” Ken Wooten Executive Director of Dove House, Charlotte, NC
