“Willa Edgerton-Chisler is truly a phenomenal woman. She is an
accomplished professional whose experience with Workplace Training,
Leadership Development, and Non-profit Organizations is priceless. Willa
Edgerton-Chisler is one of very few people with the ability to
successfully conceptualize and execute new business paradigms, increase
sales performance, and improve customer relations. She brings a wealth
of knowledge and experience to the table that many in her field claim to
have but lack. Her integrity is infallible and her positive attitude and
creativity are above par.”
S. Lynn Stone, Bollinger Insurance
"Willa is a true professional. She possesses the knowledge necessary to
conduct her role. She came to our company providing coaching and
counseling to associates that were being laid off. She handles these
situations in a very caring way with a matter of fact attitude that
makes the individual look forward to their next steps. It is a great
combination to have because it allows the individual to get past the
emotions of being laid off in a timely manner. She is dedicated and
truly has an interest in seeing the individual succeed. She is
passionate about the work that she does, has terrific follow up skills
and is a wonderful business partner.”
Zuzel Prieto – VP, HR Liz Claiborne
"Willa's diversity work with AT&T, Lucent is well known, she received
national recognition for the web site, and her corporate diversity work.
Her skills and abilities in the diversity arena are documented and
certified via several education experiences. She is the right person for
any diversity initiative… her ability to connect and create
understanding, two strengths she uses wisely as a leader. She is a true
"value-add" to any team/organization.”
D. Beverly, OD, State of NJ Judiciary-AOC
“Willa Edgerton-Chisler is an outstanding business leader with
outstanding business acumen. Willa has tremendous skills in the area of
training development and diversity management. She has a genuine concern
for people and looks for innovative ways to develop employees and drive
business results. Willa is creative, insightful, assertive and easy to
work with.”
Byron Ward, VP Sales & Services,
Houghton-Mifflin
"Willa Edgerton-Chisler has extensive knowledge in training and team
building. Bright, dedicated, and adaptable to a competitive and
ever-changing environment. Solid expertise in developing a group of
individuals into a high performance work team while maintaining results
oriented focus on the needs of the business."
L. Steichen, PHR
“Willa Edgerton-Chisler is the consummate professional -- someone who
consistently delivers 110%. Whether it is through her extensive
professional network, from her own successful practice, or in
collaboration with other subject-matter experts, Willa is the go to
resource for a wide range of matters. Her reputation is second to none.
One of the greatest gifts I have ever given to myself is to work with
Willa! … Having known and worked with Willa, she has earned my highest
recommendation as a professional resource and service provider.”
A. Gaskin, CEO,
The Virtual Legal
Assistant, Inc.
“… Throughout our two year business relationship, our small non-profit
organization has experienced both great growth and rapid loss. In both
instances we were able to call upon the excellent skills and expertise
of Ms. Chisler to meet these challenges. Willa has so very much to offer
any business, from diversity training to staff orientation right down to
executive director succession planning. She also offers a great deal
more - human being insight - the real kind -- people to people stuff,
the kind that can move mountains of problems to satisfying solutions!
R. V. Peterkin, Exec. Director, Friends &
Families United, Inc.
“I have had Willa as a coach for 6 months. I was not completely sure how
"coaching" could improve my life, but I was so bored of me chasing my
tail that I decided to take a chance, be open and see what could happen.
Well, 6 months later, I am approaching my business' launch party that I
know would not have been possible without Willa's guidance and knowledge
and have completed every step toward becoming the entrepreneur that I
can be proud of and can go out into the world knowing its worth. Through
Symphony Coaching I set goals and actually reached them, I prioritize,
which was a foreign concept to me prior to the coaching sessions, and I
have more free time to enjoy life, since I do not have to spend that
time anxious and guilty because I haven't been productive. Willa is a
generous woman, a wonderful person, and worth every sacrifice, I made to
be able to have this experience with Symphony Coaching.”
Donniee Barnes, CEO
Evolução
“Willa is an expert in the field of career and life coaching. She takes
an individualized approach that yields great success.”
Toyi Ward –
Marketing Director – Johnson
& Johnson
“I was introduce to coaching by my employee and spoke to a friend in the
corporate world. I learned that this would be good for me in assisting
me with management skills. I wanted a coach that would point out my
weaknesses and show me the better to do my job. My experience in working
with Coach Willa has been very good. I feel better about how I handle
situations. She is honest and assisted me in showing me how I can better
myself and take me to the next level. My coach showed me how to delegate
and to respond when the job is not being done. The problems or
challenges I was able to process with coaching were to be able to
delegate and let others do their job rather than trying to do all myself
and not do them satisfactory. The 2 - 3 greatest achievements I’ve had
while working with Coach Willa were - I have more time for myself; I am
able to lead, where in the past I was always putting out fires; to
delegate work and to ask who is responsible for a particular task rather
than having issues brought to me to resolve. I have gained a better way
to manage and lead.”
V. Lewison – NJ Judiciary
