“In my 40+ years in business, I have never experienced someone quite like Sarah. Her ability to understand and present complex financial information so I can make business decisions easily is unmatched in a finance professional. She understands the big picture, not just the numbers.”
“I have worked with several business coaches and always felt that I was receiving the cookie cutter service. Sarah knows our industry and yet does not steer me in any certain direction. She coaches-not leads. I feel that she has our best interests in mind and truly wants to see us succeed.”
“Light Consulting provides coaching and facilitation methods consistent with our culture and leadership training. Light communicates in a respectful manner and has the business acumen to understand the technical and soft skills required in our line of business.”
“A business at times needs to spend money wisely to make money and to truly invest into the growth of your business. I would highly recommend to any business who is at that pivotal point of growth and wanting sound advice and help.”
