“Diane asks the right questions that help us focus on delivering the right message, at the right level …”
“Oftentimes, communications is overlooked or not fully leveraged as the critical discipline it is, particularly when an organization is undergoing a change. Diane asks the right questions that help us focus on delivering the right message, at the right level, at the right time. She is strategic in her approach and works well across teams to ensure that every stakeholder point-of-view is reflected in the change management communications process.”

“…[Diane] helped our organization grapple with a number of complex communications issues…”
“My first year as President & CEO of Scholarship America, our nation's largest non-profit scholarship organization, was unlike any I had ever experienced; a tall statement when considering that I had recently concluded an outstanding career as a general officer in the United States Marine Corps.
Enter Diane Winston—poised, confident, and technically proficient in organizational mien. Diane's enthusiasm, technical expertise and commitment to excellence, along with her insatiable desire to dig deeply in order to understand the root causes of some of our organizational challenges, helped our organization grapple with a number of complex communications issues.
Diane Winston's superior intellect, exceptional moral compass and professional acumen are second to none. Her gifts are many! Scholarship America was truly blessed to have had the good fortune to be one of many beneficiaries of her exceptional service.”

“…thanks to Diane's talents and insights, …the number of interviews I have landed has spiked.”
“After several years as a small business owner, I decided to return to a career in corporate America. However, making this transition proved to be more difficult than I had expected: recruiters just weren't responding to my resume and interviews were few and far between. However, my situation began to change when I hired Diane to make recommendations on how I could refresh my resume and professional biography. To this end, she spent an extraordinary amount of time getting to know me, my professional experiences, passions and objectives and then, like magic, she transformed my resume into a document that married the relevancy of my role as a small business owner to many of the qualifications required for HR executives! Now, thanks to Diane's talents and insights, recruiter interest and the number of interviews I have landed have spiked.”
