"As a seasoned HR professional, I was very impressed with the Fascinate® Assessment tool which has a different perspective by identifying how "others" see your strengths.
Although the assessment tool is rich, Vicky’s knowledge, enlightening insights and guidance are what makes this Fresko program so incredibly valuable.
I walked away with a much better understanding of my blend of strengths and how to focus on them. Vicky helped me concisely describe and authentically position myself to others while giving me insights on how to effectively adjust my communication with others."

”I completed Vicky’s Fresko Professional Program and really liked the information and insights she provided on how to identify the value of others and how to see how others do things differently. It is amazing how accurate the Fascinate® Assessment was with only 28 questions.
I really appreciated the extra time and insight Vicky provided to discuss applying what I had learned. She really helped put results into action.
This process would be especially helpful with remote work to learn others’ styles and know how to best communicate with them.”

”It was amazing how accurate it was! I was so surprised that something so quick and simple could be so spot on.
There is definitely value in having Vicky walk you though the assessment results, as I would not have not connected the dots on my own."

“There is great value in the one-on-one discussion. Vicky’s process, tools, and skills helped connect information and provided insights into self-discovery and the “why” on my communication style.”
“Vicky’s process filled in the gaps from other programs and self-assessments. I wish I had known about this process before, as it tied some “loose ends” together and helped me move forward to complete my entire branding process.”
“It isn't just a bulk of information that you must sieve through. She takes you through it as a guided process. Each step leads you to a fuller understanding of your authentic self and how to best communicate with others.”

"The Fresko program and Vicky’s guidance will help anyone wanting a way to learn more about themselves and gain a deeper understanding of their strengths. She also helps in the development of a concise way to communicate what makes one unique and effective.
Even more importantly, you can gain insights on team members and how to best work as a cohesive team which helps organizations meet their goals more efficiently."

“Vicky’s process, while targeted and intentional, was adaptable enough to accommodate my just-in-time learning to meet my evolving needs.
Vicky demonstrated mastery of the content throughout the whole process. She delivered exactly my established goal, and she even exceeded my expectations.”
Kristin Sullivan, MN
Healthcare Office Manager

Career Transition, 2020
“I am so grateful for the time spent with Vicky. It was helpful in mourning my loss of the "travel business" and giving me the confidence I needed to discover and accept my strengths. She highlighted skills I never knew I had. I wonder without this process where I would be in my job search, or if I'd be at a job that I was unhappy with (selling myself short). I don't think I would have known to apply for my new job. Vicky's process is very good for career transitions and development.
In addition, what I learned about myself during my time with Vicky continues to be inspiring and accurate, two years later!.”

“It was great! I really enjoyed partnering with Vicky. Her process was easy to follow and clear with depth. Even though I have taken several other assessments, Vicky clarified my strengths and areas of growth. Her process demystified things for me.
I now have a better understanding of myself so I can operate more of my strengths, using them to my advantage. It also helped me learn, in real specific ways, how to improve myself and be more effective as a person.
I would recommend this to anyone who wants to feel important and valued (know how they can contribute) while prioritizing and maximizing their time.”

"I'm so glad I had the opportunity to work with Vicky. She could really connect with me, and help me ease into the job market brimming with confidence. The sessions encouraged me to find my strengths, areas where I need improvement and guided me towards a better understanding of my skills. I can safely say that I won't be selling myself short anymore.
I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone who is struggling to connect with themselves and realize their potential. The job market out there is tough and oftentimes people end up in a job that they don't like. Vicky is here to prevent this and help them find the career that is best suited for them."
