"While career roadblocks can be disappointing, never allow yourself to get stuck there. Often, when some doors are closed, other opportunities will find you. Search for them and seize them."

Anne was the light at the end of the tunnel, when I was in my corporate rat race. She stood for excellence, creativity and personability. I was surrounded by red tape, goverance and systems. I owe much of my success to teachers along the way and Anne was one of the early pioneers who are unforgettable, impressionable and represent a "life defining moment" in my journey.

Tracey Parnell, C.O.O., Executive Coach, Author & Speaker, Creativity Guaranteed

She was able to bring out the best in everyone including me who was quiet and reserved. Anne was able to coach me to jump in and get over my fears in front of a group.

Marc Shickluna, Former Operations Manager, Bell Mobility

I came to Anne's workshop with the intention to build a career transition plan to move into the multimedia industry. Her workshop allowed me to do just that. It was upbeat, very informative and well organized with excellent in class and post workshop materials. I was hired as an Account Manager at a Multimedia firm in the city. I've gone on to produce and manage many projects for interactive programmes for a variety of companies. This career move has provided me with immense satisfaction and furnished a new sense of professional confidence.

Karen Robbins, Former Account Manager, McGill Multimedia

Anne Thornley-Brown is an excellent mentor who taught me years ago how the training profession operated. With her as my coach, I progressed from being a telephone customer service rep to being a full time trainer in less than a year. A few years after that, I was promoted to Manager of Call Centre Training at one of the largest telecom companies in Canada.

Mike Aoki, President, Reflective Keynotes Inc.

Anne always provided excellent advice to me and her professional development support and counsel were very valuable to me as I launched my career as a Consultant. Over the years, I have come to respect and admire the leadership and innovation that Anne has demonstrated in the field of professional development and training for her clients, as well as other Consultants.
