Harris is an exceptional facilitator. With
Ms. Harris’ guidance and expertise,
my colleagues and I were able to review
and address organizational strengths and
weaknesses in support of the development
of a strategic action plan. Ms. Harris provided
insight that prepared my team to address
organizational leadership and management
issues. As a result of her insight and ability
to pull our team together to work constructively,
we created a work plan that is being fully
utilized to this day."

Robbins Harris developed and facilitated a two
day retreat for the Executive Staff of Illinois
Department of Children and Family Services. The
retreat theme was Empowering the Team for Effective
Change Management. “It was a powerful, highly
interactive session that fostered lively discourse
and open sharing of experiences, insights and
ideas. The entire Executive Staff commented that
they appreciated the opportunity to convene in
a stimulating environment, learn from one another,
build on their strengths and determine next steps
to address my vision for the department and the
necessary changes to support that vision”

and Family Services
Dear Ms. Harris
In
reviewing the materials from our recent Executive
Staff retreat, it brought to mind all of the hard
work which you expended on our behalf in making
the Retreat such a success. I just wanted to add
my thanks for a job well done. I know that a lot
of time goes into facilitating a get-together
such as ours, and from the positive comments which
I’ve heard from others, your diligent execution
was deeply appreciated by all who participated.
Most
sincerely,
Dixie
