Strategic Planning

Business Meeting

"Inside our company, when creating a culture of engagement and learning, we hired Bonni and delegated to her. One needs to be intentional about the strategy and direction of their company. You need to prepare yourself, and your staff, to work together for growth spurts and changes, so when an opportunity comes along you're in a better position to take advantage of it." - Ted Goodnow, Founder/CEO, Woodmeister Master Builders

"Atlantic Consultants was excellent at facilitating the strategic planning process to encourage ideas, diffuse time-consuming non-productive disagreements, and moved the group to conclusions... [they were] masters at encouraging and designing small team breakouts and assignment and in rotating leadership...always showing preparation, creativity and enthusiasm." - Charles H. Sherwood, PhD,
President/CEO, Anika Therapeutics

"Bonni [president of Atlantic Consultants] really did a fabulous job with our group of 30 agency representatives. She kept us on task, ensured the participation of each member of the group, and helped each of us to keep our focus on the goal we wanted to achieve in the meeting. When old tensions or arguments surfaced and threatened our progress, Bonni found ways to diffuse the pressure without making anyone feel that they weren't heard. The group (again, a hard group to please!) was unanimous in their appreciation and praise of her work, and we would definitely call upon her again should we decide to do a large group retreat or strategic planning session. I strongly recommend Bonni to you." - Liz O'Connor, President, Strategy Matters, Inc.

"On behalf of all the men and women of the Boston Police Department, I want to thank you for the time and effort you put into Strategic Planning ...

Evans, Police Commissioner (1999)

"People, like Bonni, help leaders make it all possible. Often we forget what is important and what the rules are, going about in a hurried way to do what we do, and we forget. It's people like her who bring us to the present and make us think more coherently and I thank her for that." - Martin Deale, Founder/CEO, Clean Deale

"Bonni did an amazing job presenting and creating a wonderful opportunity for our people to further develop themselves as leaders without you, all of this development would not be possible." - Kim Goodnow, President/Owner, Culture Quality and Customer Delight, Woodmeister Master Builders

"We recently contracted with Atlantic Consultants of Wellesley to develop and conduct a search evaluation process for an agency manager position. Several years ago they developed a training program for our associates to help us better prepare for the coming automobile changes. We were extremely pleased with their efforts on both assignments, and in both cases our associates widely felt it their work was beneficial." - Fran Doran, President, FR Doran Insurance Agency, Inc.
