  • Noemi and team were so incredibly helpful in making two community convenings a success. They checked in prior to the convenings so they could understand our key goals, foreseen challenges, and what we wanted out of the convenings. On the day-of, they had a handle on all aspects of the facilitation process, right down to having treats and kinetic toys on the table. They were quick to provide deliverables (I’m talking the next day!) and even took photos while our groups were in break-out sessions. They also provide a debrief option so that future events can be successful, too. Overall, I would DEFINITELY reach out to this team in the future and I highly recommend you do, too!

    Maria, Executive Director

  • I would highly recommend The Bright Side Group for anyone looking to manage complex projects. Noemi taught our team many new things about how to organize and manage our workflow and stay within the scope of our projects. The knowledge she shared will carry our team through future projects. I wish we could have The Bright Side Group with us full time!
