“Over the years I’ve facilitated numerous trainings with Rhonda for male and female groups of college student-athletes, coaches and administrators. As a result, I’ve witnessed first-hand her ability to connect with —and inspire— people, no matter the topic or setting. I’d also like to add that she’s an all around pleasure to work with and a thoughtful, meticulous planner who knows her stuff.”

“I am the trainer/facilitator that I am because I was blessed to have learned from Rhonda Ware so many years ago. People ask me how I learned to be so good, and I share with them the story of you. How you approached presenting and how you were able to draw people into you and the conversation using your intellect, your wit, and your creativity especially when there was resistance. I am so thankful to Rhonda because I am where I never thought I would be because of her imprint on my life.“

“I have witnessed Rhonda Ware present for college athletes and administrators in Florida and a leadership summit in Chicago. Rhonda makes an immediate connection with audiences. Her positive mindset and deliberate insertions of personal stories and disclosures of life’s lessons inspired and empowered participants to acknowledge their own inner strength and to think and feel beyond themselves in the service of others. Rhonda helped the participants see, through their own eyes, that the power to make real change lies within each one of them.“

“I worked with Rhonda in 2016 as a facilitator, as we educated and trained George Westinghouse High School students on violence prevention using the Mentors in Violence Prevention (MVP) model.

Rhonda was especially knowledgeable and personal and brought a calming and neutral perspective on issues that were historically considered to be “women issues”. Rhonda showed patience and listened attentively as each student shared their own experience, and triumphs/struggles regarding the impact violence have played in their lives. In each student group, Rhonda showed her ability to adapt to the demographic and communicate in a way that the students could understand and feel comfortable engaging and disclosing very personal stories.

It is important to reintegrate Rhonda’s calming spirit; it is not easy discussing some of these tough subjects that we all go through, and it takes someone who Is well-versed in these areas, along with someone who can manage different personalities, have a neutral and unbiased approach, and the patience the allow each group to have its own culture… and be okay with that; Rhonda did that, and I appreciate her work.”
