What are clients
saying about Dana?
My personal coach, Dana Maggi, was outstanding. As a 62 year old, I had great concern about finding a position in the corporate world, knowing how so many frown upon older employees. Dana helped me regain my confidence, and she helped me realize that my skills and experience were desired by many companies. She reminded me that many companies look for experience and are successful for having a diverse workforce. Dana also coached me on my desire to transition into non-profits, or start my own company.

Dana provided candid and specific suggestions that eventually set the foundation for a successful job search. The time spent with Dana was very productive. I had a lot to get done (i.e. build a LinkedIn network from scratch & learn to use the application). Dana was instrumental in getting me through this.

One-on-one coaching with Dana Maggi helped me immeasurably in dealing with a sudden job loss, as well as uncovering exciting new possibilities. I always felt -- and feel -- heard and acknowledged. When my self-confidence faltered, Dana grounded me in the reality of my worth. I am deeply, deeply grateful to Dana.
