TESTIMONIALS

"As a seasoned entrepreneur, marketing and brand expert I have worked with such great companies likes of Microsoft, Micron, Walmart and more. Michele Walker and I first met during the summer of 2007 where she was charged with a mountainous task of organizing many functional areas of the 2009 Special Olympics World Winter Games. Her professionalism, get it done attitude and expertise in logistics was not only needed, but well received. She continually demonstrated her exceptional ability to operate equally well in strategic and tactical mode and then was able to translate this strategic direction into well-defined operational plans."

“If you want something done, give it to a busy person!” These words would appropriately apply to Michele Walker. She likes to be a busy person and has a proven record of getting things done. Having appointed Michele to various positions over the past ten years, she has never disappointed and has always gone the extra mile to ensure success for the event she is working on. Michele Walker - confident, capable, competent – and always with a smile!

Michele is a passionate and dedicated special event organizer who brings a high level of skill and professionalism to every position she takes on. She is meticulous and detail-oriented, yet never loses sight of the big picture due to a comprehensive understanding of special events. Michele is an exceptional manager, an effective mentor and a superb colleague. With her extensive background, few people possess the detailed understanding of special events that she does, and she is generous in her support of colleagues and subordinates. I have happily recommended Michele for a number of other positions and she has never failed to impress."

"Michele’s vast experience as a practitioner of sports and event management gives her a complete grasp of her trade. She transcends her job description and provides a COO, PIO, and CEO point of view regarding all operational matters. I do not believe an event exists that Michele could not join and hit the ground running immediately. Her project planning skills are at the highest level, and Michele understands the entire scope of event management. Her greatest asset may be contingency planning and problem solving. No road block is unsolvable regardless of the urgency needed and the situation at hand. A true professional, Michele manages her time as well as anyone and never wastes a day to prepare. I hope we have the opportunity to work together again in the future."

"Michele’s work ethic insures a track record of operating effectively in any fast-paced, demanding, highly time-sensitive environment such as major events and games. Michele's ability to bring levity and humor to stressful situations is a key factor that sets her above the rest in her field. I look forward to working with her in the future and would consider her and her services a true value to any company that engages with her."

“I have had the pleasure of working with Michele Walker over the past 18 years. She is one of the most dedicated and professional executives I have worked with. She takes great pride in every project she works on, pays special attention to even the smallest of details, she does not just deliver what is asked of her...she over delivers. Michele’s vast experience means she can fulfil many roles in moving her clients business forward. She is one of the most positive people I have ever had the pleasure to work with and defines the word “team player”. When Michele is asked to lead any initiative, she puts her heart and soul into every aspect of the task. The outcome is nothing short of success!
I am pleased to recommend Michele to anyone who requires a first class, hard working executive...who delivers!
