Starting a new school, we were able to develop all of our practices from the ground up. By the end of our fourth year, we saw that a systematic approach to progressive discipline that met our school model was still in its infancy, and we sought support from Team Building on Purpose to help us collaboratively develop that plan. TMBOP provided the unique opportunity to work with us and develop something totally new as opposed to other companies which only offered to come in and provide professional development to teachers on a program that already existed. We needed the flexibility to discuss and tweak throughout the year to meet our unique needs. TMBOP engaged our entire staff in creating and implementing the plan, and provided supports to all staff throughout implementation. We appreciated the speed at which we were able to develop and implement the plan even within our constructivist approach. We would highly recommend TMBOP to lead a staff through project planning, plan development, and plan implementation.

have known and worked with Christiana and TMBONP for many years. Our school has several locations and each have various professional development needs. These range from co-teaching/team work, positive communication skills to the never ending work with student character/social emotional skill building. Our early childhood campus has flourished with the teamwork, assessment techniques and social emotional learning provided by TMBONP. We have been very lucky to host Christiana at our Middle School, where students gained important confidence in public speaking. Team Building on Purpose has met and exceeded our goals and expectations. We love having our employee professional development with Christiana and TMBONP, always making sure trainings meet our needs. Thank you TMBONP!

Our department is always dealing with personnel changes. New groups come on board and we are constantly rebuilding our team. It is so important for productivity that we have a team that is willing to work together, communicates effectively and is respectful to staff, at school sites and with each other. It was amazing how an hour or two with Christiana and Charles can bring a new group together. Their style of learning overcome the diversity of a group with different ages and backgrounds. I was so pleased with the positive response from our volunteers and staff. I recommend it for anyone needing to build or repair a team!

Prior to meeting Christiana, I had low confidence in my ability to talk in a professional manner. I’m naturally a shy person so it was hard for me to gain someone’s trust from a first impression. In a world where effective communication is crucial, I knew I had to address these confidence issues especially if I wanted to thrive in the business world and be an effective team player. Within minutes of our first encounter, Christiana helped me break my comfort zone right away. She knew exactly what my weak points were and had numerous exercises to break out of my comfort zone while giving me the ability to show confidence. After just a few weeks, I had naturally felt more comfortable engaging in conversation with complete strangers and business professionals. I have consistently been one of the top performing salesmen in my current position using the tools Christiana engrained in my head.
