June 3, 2009 – Kate Elliott, Owner, Active Marketing & Design was with another company when working with Mary-Jane at Green Light
“I met Mary-Jane when she responded to an article about me in the business section of our regional paper the Eastern Daily Press. I wanted to meet lawyers with flexible minds open to different ways of working . I realise now that there arent many of us, only 3 people got in touch. We then worked up a plan to deliver people skills training to lawyers, a sector which badly needs it. We succeeded in interesting a major regional trainer in the plan , before other commitments forced them to withdraw. Mary-Jane knows how to talk business, in many senses. I recommend her.I have no doubt she and I will work togther again at some point in the future.”
