Carrie has a tremendous reputation in the field, as both a trainer and a coach. She is a dynamic trainer with the unique ability to successfully work with diverse populations- from teens to senior managers. Her work is rooted in finding the positive/strengths and building from there, which is an important foundation for agencies to support staff and build programs. It is rare to find someone that is able to integrate an extensive background working in the field, with such solid training skills.

Carrie has the ability to bring out the best in people. I brought her in to work with our sales, marketing, and support group and she left a great impression on all of us. The response from the team was astounding and appreciative. I would absolutely recommend her. She is an outgoing individual with lots of energy that will help your group see the positive as well!

You will be hard-pressed to find another speaker who has such an engaging and entertaining style like Carrie's! She has an uncanny ability to connect with her audience and delivers even the most challenging messages with humor and sincerity (she is very, very funny). In our planning sessions, she was genuinely curious to learn about our goals for the meeting and understand the unique demands placed on our management team. The insights that she shared that day have stayed with us - at work and at home! She far surpassed my expectations for the workshop and I would highly recommend Carrie for your next training or speaking engagement.

In over 30 years in education, I have never seen a trainer, teacher or workshop facilitator change the dynamic in a room like Carrie Stack. Her positive energy engages and motivates attendees to participate in the process of self improvement like nothing I have ever seen.
