Client Testimonials
Here is what our clients have been saying:
“I engaged Cindy Paris of The People Skills Group to specifically address issues related to our Development and Construction teams that were not working well together. Cindy quickly identified the underlying causes of the communication breakdown, the most blatant one being the VP team working within “silos” rather than as a united team. Through training and coaching of team members from the VP level down, Cindy taught us how to build trust, manage conflict, and work as a team to foster commitment and accountability. We have seen positive and sustained changes in how our teams work together to produce a better product."

“Cindy helped us in getting better results from our teams as they addressed complex projects.”

“Cindy Paris of the People Skills Group facilitated a team development program for our Construction and Development groups that work together in one small office. As the leader of that team I can say that prior to the training, the groups from the two departments were at odds with each other and worked as separate entities. The team training provided us with insights into how we can work together as one team with common goals. Cindy provided us with the knowledge and tools for helping us to understand ourselves better, our teammates better and provided a structure for us to follow in our continued efforts to build a strong team. Personally, her follow-up through individual coaching has enabled me to develop my leadership skills in order to mentor the team efforts going forward.”

“Cindy has worked for our organization on several occasions over the past few years. She has done an amazing job helping us understand some of the breakdowns in our communication and growth objectives for both individuals and various teams throughout the country with her work with the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator programs that she has developed specifically for our needs. She quickly identified areas in which we were struggling to understand even some of the simplest concepts of effective communication that have impacted our ability to enhance team building and leadership growth within our group. With Cindy's help, we have made significant strides in all facets of our training and development needs. I believe this has been at a great value compared to some other, less effective, programs we have tried. Her expertise and dedication to focus specifically on us has made her an integral part of our organizational development. I would strongly recommend Cindy for any company who wants to provide truly effective and affordable training and leadership development programs for their organizational growth.”

The coaching that Cindy has provided in these areas has been invaluable and has greatly assisted my clients in managing change in an unpredictable market climate.

"I learned about myself and how I relate to others. The most helpful part of the program is to recognize that most paralegals have a personality type that is completely different from lawyers. Recognizing this helps me as a manager when coaching my staff on communication skills."
Colleen M. Thompson, Manager, Legal Administration,
Akema Inc

"I met Cindy through the Delaware Valley Association for Psychological Type (DVAPT) when she was President. Her leadership in the organization and enthusiasm for the MBTI® instrument and its ethical use were apparent. I later qualified for the MBTI with Cindy and Type Resources; she expertly facilitated a diverse group of trainees of various types and from different backgrounds. She has a wide repertoire of tools and skills and found a way to target our different types with a satisfying training. Each of us walked away having successfully completed our qualifying program and well prepared to conduct MBTI assessments and trainings. I have since conducted over a dozen trainings and can say that her mentorship of the instrument have served me well. She continues to be a resource for new tools and tips through her website."

"As an educator, it is important to have depth of knowledge and the ability to communicate that knowledge. Cindy Stengel Paris demonstrates credibility in both - her knowledge of Psychological Type and her ability to facilitate seminars with warmth and professionalism make her one of the best and most credible instructors around."
