“Employees who have taken this program have returned to work with a renewed sense of commitment and empowerment. They learned methods of thinking and behaving that they could then apply on the job immediately and maintain it. The results from this seminar are that employees meet every day with increased enthusiasm, productivity and better decision-making and judgment. I highly recommend this seminar for your employees." Jan Ricciardelli, HR Director, Richards & Associates

"Dr. Manijeh Motaghy provided key information that add a new and important dimension to several of the new processes for project management (e.g., Agile, Rolling-Wave, etc.). During several discussions, Dr. Motaghy was able to demonstrate her processes for a non-linear approach that point to Root Cause Analysis. Her approach consists of mindful Business Analysis and attention to links and relationships that exist within  systems and impact the system. This, she devised as an aspect of her consulting approach and strategic training. Her continued contributions to our product development was nothing less than astounding in clearly demonstrating her approach that resulted in positive impact on our solutions. Her perspective on (Root Cause Analysis) is explained by the Need Analysis component of her COMAND^TM model.  Her Project Development Contributions

I have highest regards for Dr. Motaghy's professionalism, dedication to process enhancement and advocating success in alignment with personal well-being. I highly recommend her and her approach in joining any team/organization who seeks a non-linear thinking OD consultant and to anyone who wants to train in  her leadership courses to become a more effective and successful manager."  see full description.

"Janis was anxious about meeting with you on Friday, expecting you to be a kind of “task master” about coaching, and she remarked how much more relaxed she felt in your presence, and how you succeeded in slowing both of us down to at least contemplate for a few moments that ideal life, that perfect day and perfect week—that you insisted on in no. 1, and which has helped both of us focus on the practical steps each day to get there.  More shall be revealed . . ." - David McCann, PhD.

"I first met Manijeh when she applied for an HR Assistant position in my HR department. I knew that she did not have much experience in this area, however I could tell immediately that she was very intelligent and enthusiastic and that she had the desire and thoughtfulness to learn quickly and give every effort to learning this area as completely as possible. Much of the HR department at that time needed development and Manijeh was indispensable in this regard. I could give her tasks from interviewing employees about their jobs for the development of job descriptions to assisting in the coding of a new HRIS system. She is at once at home with the very technical aspects of a job as well the creative and innovative aspect of any given project.

Manijeh is a woman of achievement. Not only has she been the proprietor of several companies, but (while being a full time student) has lent her time and energy to various school committees and as a Board Member at her alma mater. Here, she showed her initiative, leadership abilities and vision. She was always engaged, respected by her classmates and colleagues and very enjoyable to interact to with."
