"Rosemarie's presentation "Reflections and Growth" is energetic! Rosemarie has the kind of energy that has you sitting up; or at the edge of your seat. She gets everyone in motion by being in motion. You get that she is passionate about her audience taking positive actions. Rosemarie gets real practical with the dos, don'ts and the how tos. She gives verbal pictures that allow you to internalize what she is giving you. She causes her participants to relate to situations they have all experienced at one time or another in their careers and in life. Rosemarie's passion takes you to where you feel like you are pilots in a Concorde Jet ready for taking off into your destiny. She is a powerhouse of wisdom, knowledge and passion for other people's dreams. Rosemarie Strawn is 'positive actions.' I highly recommend Rosemarie for motivational and training events."
- S. Brown, Senior Legal Assistant, Johnson & Johnson

Thank you very much for an engaging and informative workshop. The customized version of “Developing a Positive Attitude for Productivity Improvement” was a great fit for our Green Jobs Training Graduates about to re-enter the workforce. The material covered was easy to understand and applied to both personal and professional areas. Feedback from the participants has been extremely positive. Knowing each of the participants personally, I can say that each left with new strategies and ideas to apply to their situation. It was heartening to see them leave the workshop energized and with a “positive attitude”. I plan to continue to reiterate the key points of the workshop over the next few months as we continue to support the graduates in their career search. I would highly recommend this workshop to others and look forward to utilizing your services in the future.

It was a pleasure meeting you personally. Hope our paths cross again. We will promote you throughout our organization. I hope you made some viable contacts last night.

"As a NJAWBO member, I recently attended a public speaking seminar you taught at Fairleigh Dickinson University's Rothman Institute for Entrepeneurial Studies. What I learned has been of benefit to me in my business and personal life. I especially appreciated having you as an inspirational lecturer.
How ironic that last night I would find myself as a guest lecturer in the same lecture hall where I attended your public speaking course. By participating in your seminar, I attained greater self-confidence, which prepared me to accept the lecture assignment.
