Just half way through Jonni's “Reach Your Peak” coaching program, and I’ve already grown more confident as a studio leader. I am better armed with a leadership compass and know how to get where I desire to go in my career. I’ve found her strengths-based coaching style to be particularly effective. By identifying what I’m naturally good at and flexing those muscles on a regular basis, I feel more empowered and have quickly developed a stronger executive presence. Jonni’s coaching on conflict resolution has completely changed the way I approach difficult conversations.
I’ve been so impressed with Jonni’s coaching style and my subsequent growth as a leader that I’ve asked her to facilitate a team coaching session at our upcoming regional marketing retreat.

Jonni’s Women in Leadership workshop opened my eyes to not only my long-standing habits that might be holding me back, but, as importantly, she helped me understand and enhance my natural strengths. As an engineering firm Team Leader, the skills I used to rise to the position I’m in now, may no longer work to help me go even higher. Realizing and then accepting that fact was one of the biggest eye openers for me during this workshop. These realizations have made me aware for both my own growth and for the members of my team who I’m leading into managing roles.
I left this workshop with a healthy list of focus points to help me achieve my new vision. The list includes habits I need to add to my everyday awareness and also habits I need to leave behind. Leading an engineering team and being a project engineer fresh out of school are quite different. Thanks to this workshop, I have a collection of tools to help me transition my strengths from being the new engineer bent on perfecting each task to finding that executive presence I need for my mission ahead.

At a time in my career when my responsibilities are evolving rapidly, our weekly discussions encouraged self-reflection and exponential growth through real-time applications. Jonni is truly talented at tailoring thoughtful conversations that result in those transformational moments that will change you forever.
My relationships at work and in my personal life, have deepened greatly because of the tools Jonni equipped me with. These coaching sessions encouraged a better understanding of myself, which in turn, helped strengthen the way I communicated with my team in an authentic way.
I look forward to finding more opportunities to work with her in the future and sharing what I've learned with as many people as possible. It was a true pleasure to start every week with our conversations.

Jonni gave our team the confidence, clarity and tools to develop relationships, expand their network and reach out to clients. With a unique approach and effective coaching style, she connected easily with our team, developed their trust, and inspired a culture of empowerment.
During the workshop, our team was actively reaching out to clients, prospects, and their network, finding out about opportunities, landing new client meetings, and gaining exposure in the marketplace. We are seeing results already! Her workshop format allowed for a great learning environment that encouraged meaningful discussions and tangible results.
Jonni did a great job and truly delivered. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
Tom Reisenbichler, Managing Director / Principal, Perkins&Will
Before participating in this workshop, I was unsure of my next career steps at my firm, but I knew I needed to move forward. I knew where I needed to end up, but not how to get there.
Participating in this workshop with Jonni helped me create actionable steps to help me move forward as a leader, answered questions I didn’t even know I had, and provided me with new confidence in my abilities. I have a much better understanding of where my strengths lay, what areas of my leadership style and professional presentation need further development, and how to develop my own professional goals.

I’ve been involved in a variety of professional training programs in various roles throughout my career in the construction industry. Jonni’s program hands down has been the most beneficial. Her energetic delivery is contagious and really draws you in to the subject matter and encourages collaboration within the group. Her real world examples mixed in with a little science and psychology really defines the mechanics of business development. The assignments were extremely useful and actually resulted in a win for my team on a project pursuit during the program. Growing up in sports, the best coaches were always the ones that made you feel like you weren’t being coached. That’s Jonni.
Wade Wimbish, Dir of Education

I’ve been in the construction industry for nearly 40 years and in that time exposed to many training programs across a broad range of topics. Jonni’s approach to the training she provides for strategic business development has been both helpful and enjoyable. She has a very refreshing insight based on her own experiences. The processes she went through to gain a genuine perspective on how to develop meaningful relationships through which sales are more likely to occur provide an instant level of credibility.
Her effervescent personality facilitates engagement and interaction with fellow attendees; this captures a group dynamic of relevant information sharing which capitalizes on a spirit of collaboration and enhances the training environment. I strongly suggest this training for anyone in your organization at any level to turn prospecting into sales.

Jonni served on a core group of three that included the CEO & Director of HR to launch a women’s leadership group focused on improving outcomes for women and diversity in architecture. She worked to influence stakeholders on the business case for increasing opportunities for women and diversity at the firm and engaged employees to develop relevant programming along with an organization that works with Fortune 500 companies to increase equity in the workplace.
Jonni is an enjoyable person to work with and is supportive to employees at all levels who want to improve their professional skills. She encouraged and coached employees to take risks and demonstrate their value to the firm. The 4wrd initiative – For Women, Resolve and Diversity is stronger due to Jonni’s efforts.

Jonni changed the way we pursued work. She implemented a new strategy that prequalified clients that best aligned with our strengths and offered new work opportunities for our sector. As a result, our business grew exponentially, which helped position RTKL as a powerful player in the market. She enjoys coaching and mentoring others - helping them identify their strengths and achieve advancement. I consider her a great friend and a respected colleague.
Brad Barker
EVP Global Practice Leader, CallisonRTKL (Retired)
Jonni's presentation coaching helped our team win a key project for our office. She helped us create content through story boarding, developing our message, and setting the tone in our delivery style. Her superpower is her ability to pull ideas from the team that they may not have thought of or would have taken for granted. She builds better teams and is genuine in her desire to prepare others for success. The team was more relaxed and confident due to our work together.
I highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again.
Michael Smith
Partner, E4H
Jonni’s ability to see the big picture helped us to get clear on the trajectory of our organization and to implement the necessary action steps needed to obtain our desired outcomes. The immediate benefit was the momentum we gained after she helped us think on a larger scale and plan further out. Her support encouraged us all to dream bigger, play bigger and succeed. She has a unique ability to hear your highest values and what is most important to you and your company. Her skill set has empowered us to take the necessary steps to scale up for success. I highly recommend Jonni if you choose to expand your vision, inspire your organization and grow your company.

I have known Jonni for over a decade. I have always found her to be professional, knowledgeable and tenacious. She genuinely cares about her clients, knowing their success is paramount. She thinks innovatively and strategically always pushing for improvement. We served on a board together where she led and reinvented our sponsorship program - due to her efforts, she was the most successful "friend raiser" we've had.
