But don’t take our word for it…

“I am happier right now than in any other job I have ever held.  Part of this is due to having more authority to make good decisions for my staff and I see this as a result of the management team here and at APCC and our participation in the Best Year Yet process.  The support, mentoring and feedback I receive from my supervisors and peers allows me to make confident and smart choices.  I have been able, lately, to bring joy (as is my calling) to my staff in new and exciting ways – facilitating improvements, bonuses, recognition, etc.”

— Amy Alemen, Director, Albany Park Community Center (APCC)

“I loved your approach.  You came in without causing a stir and quickly understood our organization, down to our acronyms.  But the most important thing was that everyone here — even people who aren’t used to working with consultants — felt comfortable and open, which helped you connect with us and hear different perspectives.  We’ve already used your feedback to focus our training efforts this next year.”

— Carl La Mell, President, Clearbrook

“Amy Riley is professional, personable and effective.  She understands timeframes and the deliverables we need, with little guidance.  As a manger, Amy brings confidence to the project.  It gives you “peace of mind,” when you know that the work is covered.  Shoop Consulting Group is quick to start, is quick to finish and proactively follows-up.”

– Julie Scull, Director of Financial Knowledge Management, Hewitt Associates

— Betsy Sobiech, Founder, Tiara Coaching

“You have a real passion for training and development and it certainly comes out in your work.  Each program that you design is specific to our needs.  Your creative approach to delivering training includes involving the learner, which helps to make the learning more fun.  I truly enjoy working with you.”

— Laura Boyne, HR Manager, Hendrickson Trim and Bumper

“I used Amy’s services during a period of my life where I did not know how to take care of “me”, where I was so focused on work, work and more work and where the “doing” was so overpowering. Her coaching allowed me to overcome the “guilt” in taking time out to “nourish the body and mind” in an effort to have a healthy body to achieve my goals. I am now able to balance business, philanthropic work, marriage, friendships and me time. Thank you Amy.”
