Why it works

Over the past 35 years, Donna has experienced success after success. At one company , the head of retail relied upon Donna to improve his sales. By following her advice, the company experienced a 100% lift in the first year.

The president of a recent employer credits Donna with helping the company through a difficult time, achieving profitability for the first time in several years. Donna has also helped the head of a financial institution when he struggled to move his results. In the first two months, the company experienced a 30% lift by using her tools.

Besides concrete evidence showing that her advice improves sales, Donna’s coaching style has also garnered results. A recent client, a female executive, raves that Donna’s example and coaching changed her life completely. When she came to Donna, she had no degree and was working in a small insurance company. After experiencing Donna’s microchange coaching, she went on to earn a Master’s Degree and became a successful Executive Director of a Retirement Home.

Donna S. Highfill has spent her career creating change opportunities that improve performance!! She understands that it’s people who make changes succeed or fail. Therefore, she defines and builds customized strategies and tactics based on the culture of the company. Her natural ability to connect with people (all levels) and move them forward is amazing! Donna’s integrity, professionalism, passion, creativity, energy, and competitive spirit are assets any company would appreciate as a partner in “positive change”. Donna, I thank you for our partnership each and every day!
