Intelsat is committed to providing education and programs that promote a “green” work environment. I want to express my sincere appreciation to everyone at Eco-Coach for designing such an outstanding outreach program. The Eco-Coach process helped me organize, quantify, and present sustainable value for my staff. From the very beginning, Eco-Coach consultants were attentive to my needs, answered my questions, and were very personable. What I enjoyed the most, however, was the creative process. I expressed my ideas, and within a very short period of time, my event was "alive" with color and personality. By focusing on educating the staff on going green, we have begun a process that will make a big difference. I believe Eco-Coach can help anyone to create a first class 'green' education event or program.

We found our experience as participants in the [eco-assessment] highly valuable. The worksheets provided us with a systematized process for identifying best practices to apply in our leased space. The feedback and guidance provided was excellent and provided practical ideas to further green our operations. We intend to take the lessons learned and apply them across our entire organization.

It was a pleasure working with the team at Eco-Coach. Going through the eco-assessment process turned out to be a real eye-opener for many of us in the company. It resulted in our making some immediate improvements and strengthened our commitment toward sustainability.
- S. Ellis, President, SpaFinder Inc.
As an organization that has been involved in sustainability practices for several years, we found that the depth and breadth of the eco-assessment and SBNOW Green Certification process pointed us to some additional areas we could focus on. We took those areas and new recommendations into consideration and used them to make decisions on enhancing our green practices.

Business Seminars
Our firm sponsored an Eco-Coach Educational Session and the presentation validate the saying, "Big things come in small packages" or more specifically, "Big impact can come from a collection of small changes." Although there are some formidable huddles that our society faces in terms of reducing greehouse gas emission and slowing and reversing global warming, its important to understand and implement the many small and easy changes in our daily routines and behavior that contribute to a healthier environment and lifestyle. If there is one thing that the Eco-Coach educational session did, and did in an exceptional way, is to open the eyes of presentation attendees regarding the lifestyle changes that collectively can potentially have a huge impact on the future health of the environment. Eco-Coach's educational session is hugely worthwhile!"

Residential Workshop
Eco-Coach gives detailed and informative workshops and yet keeps the information organized very well, so I wasn't overwhelmed when attending their workshops. The presenter was absolutely friendly, knowledgeable, and very encouraging of questions and concerns from the audience. I felt I could ask questions about what I needed to know without feeling intimidated at all. They know their stuff and they're able to present it in a way where I'm able to apply the green tips immediately and see the difference right away in my life, my home and at work!"
