“Little can be as satisfying to a teacher as to have a former student start with what she has been taught and go on from there. Irma Tyler-Wood has been able to go far beyond whatever she learned from me and put her unique ideas to work with dozens of organizations and companies of all shapes and sizes. For such work, Irma may be the best you could find.”

“Katherine Tyler Scott has been a keynote speaker and workshop leader for the Donors Forum of Wisconsin on two different occasions. Both times her presentation was exemplary and her message resonated with the audience long after the conference was over. I know of no other speaker that can command an audience for well over an hour with the grace and intelligence that Katherine brings to her work. She is a true catalyst for reflection and change regarding issues of governance and organizational capacity of your nonprofit organization. I would highly recommend her as a keynote, workshop leader or consultant of any organization wishing to transform to the highest level of leadership.”

The one-text is a brilliant methodology."
