Testimonials

City of redmond

LWHRA SYMPOSIUM

City of redmond

"The training you developed for the City of Redmond has been the foundation of our leadership training program. We have continually referenced the Performance Coaching and Performance Management curriculum you created and we have used them as building blocks for our other leadership courses. 


I am so appreciative that the City was able to utilize Aperture EQ to roll out our leadership training program."


-  City of Redmond, HR Deputy Director

CITY OF RENTON

LWHRA SYMPOSIUM

City of redmond

"Our Sergeant Exam involved assessing 17 candidates, using 19 sergeant assessors. Mrs. Tarasewicz's role as the facilitator required keeping a large group of people on task, helping keep the conversation productive and meaningful, as well as providing needed input and direction. Often these events result in assessors disagreeing with each other. Disagreement within the process can challenge most facilitators. I did not see Mrs. Tarasewicz struggle at all. She was able to create an environment where each assessor was heard, valued, and validated. I would highly recommend Mrs. Tarasewicz as a facilitator for a company's assessment, training, development, and HR needs."

  "Janelle Tarasewicz was the most redeeming facet of the whole event, outstanding, simply outstanding. Give her several hours in the future and we will sponsor and be back in force with the entire HR department. Timely, necessary, content-laden, well organized. 


This was the tour de force of the entire event. Janelle Tarasewicz is excellent and notions surrounding implicit bias should be at the top of our agenda and hammered home."
