"I’m very thankful for the Community of Practice’s commitment to live out our core values of listening, helping, and learning together. The professional development opportunities through targeted retreat input and access to the Society for Process Consulting certification coursework has been foundational in my growth as a process consultant."

"I cannot put a price on the value of a collaborative group of colleagues from across the country that I can work together with to grow my consulting business. Through the platform, I can build deep relationships through retreats, have quality strategy sessions with colleagues, and call anyone to gain wisdom and perspective on an adaptive challenge I am supporting with a client. The community of practice is invaluable."
