Testimonials from team members, clients, colleagues, and leaders.
"Marcella, it has been a pleasure collaborating with and introducing you to our PMI Carolinas community. I am confident that I can speak for our team when I say that we look forward to partnering with you again in the future."
"The Speaker (Marcella P. Kowalchuk) presented to the PMI Carolina North chapter a topic listed as 'Key Insights for Building PM Skills' that highlighted these talking points: Know your Knowledge, Know your Environment and Value Time.
This interaction was a first for Marcella Kowalchuk Consulting Inc with the PMI Carolina organization and the speaker's presentation was informative, her interaction with the team was engaging, as this led to multiple back & forth communication activity with attendees. The content was very helpful to the audience.
Ms. Kowalchuk, as an HR consultant, has a very insightful perspective on how PM's can reshape their thinking. More importantly, the shared content was lively, enlightening and noteworthy for all PM's. I would recommend her service to other PMI national chapters or other professional services groups."
