We collaborated with Emmy Monticelli in designing and conducting a year-long leadership program for our organization, to help strengthen the relationship between managers, directors, and the senior team, as well as enhance critical soft and hard skills, representative of outstanding leaders.
Emmy is knowledgeable, energetic, encouraging, and flexible in her style as a facilitator. She offers a practical application of techniques, analyzing the importance of both team dynamics and self-awareness, as well as bringing real-life scenarios and challenges into the curriculum that encourage us to think beyond our own perspectives.
Emmy has a gift for keeping every participant focused and has given our organization its full value, by maximizing each minute allotted in our monthly Leadership Essential workshops. She is an excellent communicator who makes learning fun. She is engaging, offers great insights into our personal and professional selves, and how others view us as leaders. She brings tools and resources that benefit learning concepts and strategies to improve one’s leadership approach and impact.
It continues to be an excellent experience partnering with Emmy.

Emmy’s approach to leadership is incredibly understandable, relatable and impactful. Momentum’s sessions challenge and inspire you to reflect on your own leadership tendencies while opening your eyes to how to connect with the people around you in a more meaningful way.

I highly recommend Emmy Monticelli/Momentum Leadership Solutions for any and all your coaching and leadership development needs. Emmy is not only the ultimate professional. She is engaging, empathetic, and highly authentic. Emmy has facilitated the Leader as Coach multiple times for our Supervisor Leadership Development Program and Leadership Academy, and she consistently gets the highest of evaluation ratings from all participants. Emmy also facilitated Misunderstandings in the Workplace for our 2018 UMass Lowell Women’s Leadership Conference. She had a standing room only session and it was fabulous. We are very fortunate to work with Emmy and look forward many more successful sessions.

We contracted with Emmy & Momentum Leadership Solutions to provide training for 3 groups of upcoming leadership in our company to develop their skills and provide opportunities for their professional growth. This process also included an assessment that each attendee took to understand their communication styles and how they may relate to others.
We have seen a noticeable improvement in the way our staff looks at communication and leadership. Some have commented that it was very moving for them, both in their personal and professional lives. Emmy made a great connection with all attendees and were able to reach and relate to them in a way that was very much appreciated.
From an organizational standpoint, the preparation meetings and communication that she put out were very beneficial to our leadership and attendees, making the entire program run very smoothly and efficiently.
We took so much from the program that we have signed on for another 2 groups (about 40 employees) to go through this training next year. We look forward to our continued partnership!

She fosters an inclusive environment where people can share experiences, be comfortable with difficult discussions, and still be able to collaborate and build a solid foundation within any team. She is very approachable, interacts well with everyone, and is a powerful facilitator.

Emmy was the primary trainer of our company’s first ever formalized Management Development Program. We found Emmy to be an extremely thorough and dedicated instructor to our management team. Something I think that’s notable with Emmy’s style is her energy and level of engagement with the staff. She brought her very best to each hour of several long training days and she encouraged participation in a way that made our team comfortable about speaking up. She was very adaptable to our training set up, with hybrid onsite and remote participants. Some feedback from our managers included, “Emmy was great…super engaging” and “was knowledgeable and was a great listener while still capable of maintaining direction and controlling the room.” We are very grateful for the time we spent with Emmy and feel it was a highly valuable experience for our management team.

I had the pleasure to collaborate with Emmy for our Leadership Training. It is refreshing when you have a Trainer and Professional Partner that takes the time to learn about your company, focus on the leadership team and adapt to what they need and executes training that is not only precise but also interactive and raises the abilities of the students to be able to tackle and accomplish their jobs and to do it well. Emmy is a true professional that puts 100% into her training and constantly reevaluates each training session to accommodate and support the learner. Emmy’s outward personality, which is approachable, fun and professional made it a great experience for myself, as an HR professional as well as for our Management Team. I would recommend Emmy for any company training where you want results!

Emmy is an amazing facilitator. I had the pleasure of participating in a leadership training she facilitated for our organization, and she wowed the attendees for the entire day. She is motivating, engaging, and a great listener. Emily also facilitated many staff trainings for our group, and received top notch reviews. I have received many requests from all levels of the organization to bring her back!

I work for a family owned construction business and was asked to start a training program. Emmy guided me through the process and made it easy. We have been working with Emmy since 2017 and have had trained hundreds of employees.
She is able to change the minds of the managers and supervisors who were “just there for the food”. To wow I really got something out of this, and I can really see how this will help me working with people. Emmy is masterful at getting everyone in the training engaged and to participate. Even my most resistant to training employees have admitted Emmy is great and she has helped them to understand the path to becoming a better communicator and supervisor.
