- During these uncertain times with COVID my employment was uncertain. Although the possibility of having to seek alternative employment was heartbreaking, I knew I needed to prepare for my future. As I looked at my present resume I noticed it needed MaryRose’s touch. Within a short period of time she reconstructed my resume to a whole new level. My resume now has what it should have and It gives me confidence. I appreciated MaryRose’s kindness and her professionalize during these touch times." -Tricia Zeltwanger
- After taking this class I feel more empowered to have a difficult conversation with my coworkers. I also loved Nancy’s definition of common sense versus common knowledge and her reminder about the scope of conversations within our job description and what should be elevated to our manager. Overall this class definitely had a very open setting and good vibe for sharing.” - Sharon H.
- I attended Engagement RechARTed because I wanted to learn more about what Leadership Arts Associates has to offer and either confirm my purpose/direction or to open my eyes to something I’m totally missing. This workshop helped me by letting me release during a time of confusion and frustration while figuring out the “underlying issue.” I found the experience stretching! It required personal thought while still providing freedom in those thoughts and it stretched us to find them in tools we aren’t used to. I would recommend Engagement RechARTed to people who need direction, redirection, healing or clarity.” - Amanda Miranda

- MaryRose’s services have been much needed for Healthy Hemp. We’ve been quickly growing over the last few months and needed to hire over 20 employees during this time. MaryRose has been with us every step of the way and has helped us land some pretty solid candidates. I appreciate her professionalism and her ability to follow up on all the interviews she passed on for our consideration. I could not recommend her services more to any small or medium-size business that doesn’t have the need for a full-time HR person!” - Amanda Witters

- Working with MaryRose was an absolute pleasure. This was my first time having my resume professionally analyzed and done- as such I was extremely nervous as to what her feedback and process would be. At my delight, she was very laid back and non-judgmental. She asked key questions about the type of positions I would be applying to and tailored my resume to reflect the necessary skills I would need, skills I already possessed but poorly reflected on my resume. Without a second thought, I would recommend anyone looking to have their resume professionally done to MaryRose.” - T.L. Barrett

- HR professionals know the value of a clear and concise resume; however, they find it to be the most difficult document to write for themselves. That is the predicament I find myself in every few years when I know I need to update my resume. The importance of a resume being current is not nearly about finding another job, but to ensure that valuable associations, professional groups, and peers know who you are and what you have accomplished. I have a self-imposed deadline for updating my resume on a three-year cycle. My deadline came and went without action because I did not and could not write about myself. That is why I turned to MaryRose Ritter, Leadership Arts, to help me with this task. MaryRose asked me some very important questions about what I am doing now and future goals. She requested my most recent resume and job description. The end result was a great document that I am proud to hand out because it is the right representation of my career in HR. Professionally written, affordable, and my three-year goals accomplished! Thank you MaryRose!” - Carolyn L.
