"Thank you for your guidance and support in developing our chapter's mission.
Because of the varied interests and history of the participants, this was not an easy assignment.
You kept us on track, encouraged us to break through some traditional barriers and
provided that needed redirection to move us toward our goal. You at times energized the
group, motivating many of us to move toward a higher plain. Finally, you helped us immensely by
objectively articulating what we were trying to verbalize and provided a well thought-through
summary at the critical moments."  Peter M. Panken, Esg., President,
Metro NY Society for Human Resource Management

Comments From Web Site Visitors:  "I just wanted to say thank you for what you are doing and for the encouragement I've gained while reviewing your web site and pondering your determination and strong heart. May God continue to work miracles through your generous heart."  Andrea Zeller, Pasadena, CA ·   "I'm grateful to you for this great resource. There are a multitude of problems, especially for women, in the workplace. In fact, many serious physical problems can be traced to difficult work situations. The suppression of one's intrinsic goals and talents in order to accommodate a standard of conduct, to keep a dead-end job, etc. has been recognized as a cause of the stress that, if one is not alert, may result in illness. Please contact me with any and all information about your wonderful and refreshing activities." Rochelle Sirota, Attorney, NYC
