About Sara

An expert facilitator and engaging advisor, Sara Boatz has a talent for asking the right questions, exposing what’s under the surface, and focusing clients on what matters most. With 30 years in the business of persuasion, Sara has come to believe that the greatest opportunities exist in our minds. She loves changing the way people look and feel about things.

“In today’s fast moving business environment, we don’t have time for the CEO to have a vision and single handedly pull us along to reach it. When we all understand the vision and work together, the whole company moves as one, faster so we can not only keep up, but lead our industry.”

/

“We were stuck. Our lead product was on the downward side of its lifecycle and we needed time and revenues to expand our product line and introduce a new product to the marketplace. SARA’s communication plan rallied everyone in the company, and together, the entire team pulled the company through a downturn and successfully launched a new product that put us back on the growth track.”

/

“The plan for my personal growth was a huge step, but sharing it with my support system really helped me stay on task and move forward to achieve my goals. When others got what I was trying to achieve, their help moved me along much faster.”

/

“Without everyone’s understanding of where we’re going and their role in helping us get there, we were in chaos – growing in fits and starts. Once on the same page, we really took off.”

/

“Sara treats even a small change like a reinvention. She attacks every issue with great energy, big ideas and innovative consultation. I didn’t realize I had so much to offer and could go as far as she suggested. My life has definitely changed for the better. Sky’s the limit.”

/

“As a non-profit with drying revenue streams, SARA led our board through a visioning and planning process that has put us on the path to making huge, exciting changes. She helped us see new, more innovative ways to create the funding streams we need to deliver our mission.”

/

“What gets measured gets done. SARA helped us put measures in place and stay on track to be sure our plan met objectives.”

/

“SARA reminded us to look back and realize how far we had come. She developed a recognition program that kept our team engaged.”

/

“SARA’s “Culture Captain” process enabled feedback from every level of the company. This helped us make informed decisions to keep the plan moving forward and succeed.”
