Working with Sarah on our Organization Design Project was a genuine pleasure.  Sarah is positive and is prepared for every meeting.  I inherited a project midway and was impressed by the way Sarah took the situation in stride and lead our team through the process. [Sarah] is knowledgeable and an inspirational leader.  Her can-do attitude is like a breath of fresh air.
