Testimonials
Duke Energy Corporation
LifeMoxie has served as both a strategic partner and trusted advisor for the Duke Energy mentoring programs. Their resources, including the top-notch Webinar series, have provided much-needed structure to our existing Leadership Development Network mentoring program. Additionally, their matching tool drastically decreased what was previously several days’ effort of manually pairing mentors and protégés, while at the same time facilitating more successful pairings through the registration process. LifeMoxie was also instrumental in getting our Finance New Hire Mentoring program up and running. Their 7 Step Framework takes into account all facets of launching and sustaining a successful mentoring program and effortlessly walks you through the process. Customer service is always outstanding – very responsive and going the extra mile when necessary. Mentoring is truly Ann’s passion and this is evidenced by the time and energy she and her team spend in making your program a success.

Our organization has had a formal mentoring program in place for five years now, so we had a good understanding of the type of system and features we were looking for. We were absolutely amazed that everything LifeMoxie had committed to, they were able to deliver. They worked with us to develop a system that was perfectly suited to our needs and were able to streamline and simplify an enrollment process that used to be somewhat complicated for our program participants. Not only were they able to assist us simplify the process, but they also helped challenge our current approach and further evolve our strategy.
LifeMoxie is a wonderful partner and we look forward to what the future holds in terms of leveraging the system to further evolve mentoring at Ameren.

The LifeMoxie Mentoring team possesses the rare ability to step into a situation with a quick response and a “wowing” attitude and execute beyond a client’s expectations.
They have the unique aptitude to make every request feel like the most important one, no matter how big or small the request. The team members are dedicated individuals with the capacity to identify the end result as defined by their client. They demonstrate focus on what truly matters, think innovatively, and get things done simply (at least it appears simple to their clients). I consider the LifeMoxie team a development partner who has proven to be creative in problem resolution, reliable in time commitments, and overall consistent in meeting our expectations.
Excellent service all the way around from start to finish. Keep up the GREAT work!

We just kicked off our first mentoring program with the help of LifeMoxie. LifeMoxie was instrumental in getting us setup for success with this program. We had some ideas going into this process of what we wanted to do and what we wanted to achieve and they helped us gather tools, resources and a website to really make sure we were setup for success as we move forward.

Our employees have been raving about the ease of getting Exposure (the 20% of the 3E 70/20/10 model of development) to our mentors, building their professional capability. The professional development sessions are fantastic and have helped us establish a mentor philosophy across the enterprise. LifeMoxie total mentoring solution has already had huge impact on our organizational effectiveness, operationalizing our "Enabling Performance through People" strategic imperative.

"Thank you again, for the valuable webinars that you provide via the Mentoring program here at SCE.
When I came to Edison about five years ago, I was looking for a mentor to help me find a career path. I tried a certain program here and it did not work out for me, so I took that to mean it just was not for me. I felt let down and figured that was just the way it would be. But, last year, I heard about the SCE Mentoring Program when it first started and I jumped in!! I heard your webinar last November 16, 2010 on "Leadership", and it changed my life--it changed my attitude and the way I work.
Because our group always had so much work and were so busy, I thought I could not take on any more work. Although I portrayed a positive, just do it type of demeanor, it took your webinar in November on Leadership to cause me to see that my attitude was not very good. You told us that effective leaders take initiative and go above and beyond! And to look at the big picture and how I can help the Team create "value-added" productivity! It's not just about me, it's about me and them! This helped me so much.
I would like to request a copy of the November webinar and also be able to listen to the audio of it again, if possible. It is very "inspirational" and energizing!
Today's webinar was a "10" also. I printed it out and I now have the "tool" I needed to develop a Career Development Plan and execute it!! I emailed it to my Mentor so we can follow it. It dawned on me a few days ago that my prayer for a mentor really has been answered! Through this Mentoring program, I actually have three mentors!
You have helped me move closer toward my career path!"
