“I have had the pleasure of working with Joan Mara in her Transformational Forum workshop. She demonstrates a real and genuine communication style that draws the group in and deeper. Whether you are a well-oiled Forum machine, stuck in a bad place, or need to get to the next level Joan would be the one I would call.Transformational forum requires the expertise of some one like Joan to see the kind of results that last. She is committed to the process not only during the retreat, but long after open to phone calls to discuss your progress and concerns getting the most of this new Forum tool. If you would like to discuss Joan further, don’t hesitate to call or email me.”

“I've worked with MANY coaches over the years, from e-myth, Gazelles, NeuroLeadership and other very business minded and logically focused coaches. To what some might call 'deeper' personal growth focused coaches.Joan has an amazing ability to blend the two together in a way that plays off the importance of both sides of the spectrum. I've found my work with her to be focused on practical matters, with a solid understanding of business and entrepreneurship, yet she takes into consideration what's going on below the surface level in a way typical 'business' coaches tend to miss.”

Andre KrieningChapter Chair, YPO Manitoba

“Joan did a remarkable job facilitating the new Youth Forum training for our local chapter. Her vast experience in forum facilitation and coaching made this new and unique experience a huge success. She was able to bring together principles that have been long-used in our traditional forum structure and translate those principles to adapt to the younger generation of future leaders. I would highly recommend Joan.”

Noah RussellForum Moderator, EO Vancouver

“Being trained by Joan was as much a journey as an education. She took EO course materials and brought them to life by encouraging those in the group to reach deeper, stay focused and to truly listen. Her approach is intelligent where she needs to share logic and empathetic when asking students to look within. I have been stuck by Joan’s ability to adapt to group dynamics and tailor the program so that everyone leaves the day feeling more connected, valued and ready to implement what they learned.On reflection, I believe Joan’s greatest strength as a trainer is that she remains a student of her craft; as she helps us to better listen and learn from shared experiences, she too continues to grow and develop. I’m grateful for such high calibre training and I look forward any future opportunity to have Joan’s guidance on this journey we all call life.”

“Joan is hands down the absolute best at her craft. She has taken my EO experience from 100% to 200% with her in depth fun training, excellent preparation, and the ability to keep training seminars on point and highly engaged. I look forward to learning from Joan for many years to come.”
