Joan Pastor

I would like to report that Joan’s people skill courses are excellent and very well received. I used Joan at three different Fortune 500 companies for the people skill training, and the staff loved the courses.
Also, at each of the companies, the staff requested additional courses by Joan. I think a combined training course with Joan and me, especially in an international country, would be a big success. Hopefully we can try this concept, and it will be a win for all parties involved.

Our chapter’s response to Joan’s presentation was overwhelmingly positive. Her full-day presentation on Conflict Management and Leadership Skills kept our members intrigued throughout the day. We were delighted to have someone of Joan’s expertise and enthusiasm provide her insight to our chapter.

I attended the How To Effectively Run Meetings training taught by Dr. Joan Pastor. The two-day training was intensive and simply excellent. Joan has a way of delivering difficult concepts in a simplified manner which is easily retained mentally. I plan to incorporate some of her concepts immediately. Once again, the training was great!

Joan’s presentation on the link between Leadership and Emotional Intelligence was absolutely fabulous! And I heard many others say that, too. She had all 350+ attendees listening to her every word. Joan is extremely informative, interesting, engaging, and funny! Her topic was one that everyone related to and she tailored it perfectly for our audience. I highly recommend Joan! We will definitely be using her again!

oan was a true asset to our organization. Her business acuity is as strong as her understanding of people and processes, which is a rare combination. She can fully recognize issues and translate the application of sales and marketing to all types of organizations then dissect the real status of the financial state of an organization. Most important of all- I can trust her and I greatly respect her.
She has a way of helping you see which challenge areas must be improved using as much humor as possible. Joan played a big role in getting our Association off and running in the direction l feel it should be moving in, and while change takes time I can already see the positive results of decisions we made together while she was here.

I attended your “Meeting Facilitation Skills for Managers” session during the IIA conference. It was very informative and presented well.
I can still vision the red ball when I am in a difficult meeting. Recently I successfully used your bridging technique to control a meeting. My Executive Director was very interested in what I had learned in your session as well. Thank you very much for presenting the Meeting Facilitation Skills program
