Testimonials
Circulation Coordinator
Hoover Public Library, Stress Management: Circulatory Stress
“The workshop that was conducted at the Hoover Public Library entitled Circulatory Stress was excellent. The information provided in this workshop was insightful, practical and very useful for everyday situations that confront circulation managers. Andrea Mathews' style of delivery kept the entire group attentive and energized about the program. I especially appreciate the way she is able to interact with the group and help them to realize how this information can be helpful to each of them as they go back to their respective libraries. The Circulatory Stress Workshop would be beneficial to anyone in the library profession.”

Sample Talks
Authentic Leadership
Learn how to become an authentic leader, bringing the bottom-line to reality by making everything else that happens above it authentic. Learn how to develop integral responsibility, how to become a relationship adept, how to be transparent without revealing your personal life and how to develop the unique approach to leadership called power balancing. This one is only for those who are serious about becoming a real leader, rather than just someone who sits in the chair of a leader.
