“Marcia has mastered the art of guiding, engaging and bringing out the ability of a group to accomplish a goal. The YMCA of Austin benefitted from working with Marcia as she facilitated our board retreat. She took time to learn about our organization, our board and the goal of our retreat. She was organized, professional and felt like an extension of our organization, while still being a neutral third party.” ~ James Finck, President & Chief Executive Officer, YMCA of Austin
