Client Testimonials

I met Maria in 2017 in Moscow when she was employed as a trainer at Adidas CIS (Russia). She ran a program for a group of staff including managers from Adidas Global offices worldwide (China, USA, Germany etc.) Maria was absolutely wonderful: she was a very dynamic and driven trainer who successfully managed to engage members with different cultural backgrounds. Maria’s style of facilitating combines energy with ability to deliver structured information supported with real-life examples. At the training she created an atmosphere of trust and respect: participants freely shared their life experiences with each other with no fear to be judged or misunderstood. Maria was a great listener as well. Apart of her professional skills Maria is a delightful person with a variety of interests and work and travel experience across the globe. I view Maria as a strong and experienced professional with a wide range of skills, who can be equally successful working with top managers and beginning employees. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for an excellent trainer-facilitator to help them develop their company.

Maria quickly establishes trust and rapport with the group. Maria works hard to find an approach to each group member and engage in the training process even those individuals shown resistance for some reason. At the same time Maria delivers the content in an interactive and engaging manner. I highly recommend Maria as a wonderful person and an expert who works both English and Russian and capable to deliver excellent programs for managers at all levels.

Maria is a wonderful trainer and coach who can inspire a group and easily involve participants in work. As an internal trainer for Teva Pharmaceuticals, I participated in the Leadership and Coaching program, which Maria conducted for our regional sales managers. Maria is a wonderful professional who knows how to find an approach to each participant and at the same time clearly implement the customer’s request, build training in accordance with relevant business tasks. My colleagues and I appreciated Maria’s easy style of content delivery, attention to the practicing of skills by each employee, as well as the high interest and involvement of the trainer into the process.
