Here are some of the things that clients have said:
“The Jackson Consulting Group delivers results in excess of what is expected
every time. They have helped us to overcome group resistance, urging
people to be self reflective and allowing people to learn new ways to appreciate
each other. Our people were encouraged to glimpse at what is possible
as they move towards higher levels of team performance. People acknowledge
that while the JCG workshops allow for fun, the learning is profound and participants
continue to learn and reflect long after the workshops are over.”
Karen Jackson has a rare ability – she
tells the truth to individuals and groups with great respect.
On repeated occasions we have benefited
from the strategic insight that the Jackson Consulting Group
brings to the table.
They demonstrate unparalleled commitment
to understanding the customer's needs and their business
before offering solutions, and carry through to evaluate
and support the execution as well as the design of tools
and services they offer. I have consistently found their
expertise to be innovative, thorough and progressive. They
have a keen sense of the need to be practical, yet will
challenge the customer to explore new ideas that break from
the traditional mould of what's been tried and true (and
worn out).
In our projects, the JCG they have
been required to deal with a wide range of team members
from the executive to the front line. They have successfully
and enthusiastically engaged all levels of people in the
design and execution of the highly customized solutions
that they have delivered.

The Jackson Group has assisted us
with several projects. Each
time, they have helped us to raise the bar. They are
able to quickly identify the real problem and have offered
us strategic and creative solutions and ideas.
Specifically, Karen Jackson is an outstanding facilitator
with good results at all levels. She is also a successful
executive coach and her work with some our leaders is clearly
obvious.

“I first utilized the coaching services of the Jackson
Consulting Group to help me understand my 360 review. I
appreciated Karen Jackson’s professionalism and her
genuine interest in helping me seek ways to improve my personal performance
and leadership and to see myself from a different perspective. The
accuracy of Karen Jackson’s assessment of a subsequent
follow-up situation was entirely on the mark. I would highly
recommend Karen Jackson for any personal coaching services
required by other leaders in their organizations.”

“The Jackson Consulting Group's leadership
training program was a perfect fit for our
organization because, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all
program, they
made a significant effort to learn about our organization
prior to designing
and conducting the training. I was extremely impressed
not solely by the
insightful and engaging facilitator, but by the resulting
impact upon our
staff and organization.”

"I received a formal analysis of my 360 degree review
and subsequent one-on-one coaching session from Jackson Consulting
group. I found the analysis deeply insightful and helpful. In
fact I received significant benefit professionally and personally. I
completely agree with Karen Jackson that such analysis and
attention to peer feedback is an effective way to develop
as a manager and an excellent investment".
