“The MCC management apprenticeship was invaluable to me and my colleagues at Continental Disc. In fact, every person from Continental Disc who participated in the apprenticeship received a promotion during or shortly after because of the leadership skills we learned and practiced. I moved from Engineering to Sales to become Continental Disc's Regional Sales Manager on the West Coast, and the skills we learned in the apprenticeship are helping me excel daily. There are countless customers and sales representatives I interact with often, and I'm able to use leadership skills like empathy, creating a psychologically safe environment to allow everyone to share their true feelings and concerns to be more productive, providing productive feedback, and much more. Creating an environment for my reps where we can both be held accountable has also allowed us to be more productive and successful. I'm beyond grateful for Haley at Växa Collective for teaching me these valuable lessons that have helped me flourish in my personal and professional lives. If you want to empower your employees to be better leaders in and out of the workplace and give them the tools to allow success throughout the company, look no further than Haley. Thank you for everything, Haley!” 

"Special Olympics Kansas hired Växa Collective to provide professional development in the form of an Emotional Intelligence training for our leadership team. Haley gave us practical tools to better understand ourselves and each other, which has positively impacted the ways we communicate and collaborate within our organization.The training not only strengthened professional relationships but also created a more positive, supportive culture where staff members feel heard and valued. I would highly recommend this training to any organization looking to enhance teamwork, leadership, and overall workplace well-being."

“Haley is a fantastic speaker—professional, engaging, and full of energy. Her fun enthusiasm kept our audience not only interested but actively participating throughout the session. She delivered valuable insights in a way that was both approachable and impactful.”

“We hired Haley to deliver Emotional Intelligence training for our managers, as it was an essential area for development. While our leaders were already effective, they needed support in deepening their self-awareness, improving communication, and navigating team dynamics more skillfully. Haley’s training was engaging, insightful, and immediately applicable. Since then, our managers have been using the tools to lead with greater empathy, handle difficult conversations with more confidence, and foster stronger, more collaborative teams. Växa Collective takes a thoughtful, practical approach to leadership development, and the impact has been both meaningful and lasting. Haley’s training is fantastic and engaging, and I would highly recommend her.”

“I had the opportunity to participate in the management apprenticeship program with Haley and Växa Collective as part of a work-related initiative. While I initially had limited interest, I was quickly drawn in by Haley’s engaging style, quick wit, and remarkable ability to make complex topics relatable and applicable to real-world situations. Through her guidance, I immediately recognized areas where I could grow as a leader and gained practical tools to support that development.

Following the program, I was so impressed that I brought Haley in to work with our facilities management team. A dozen of our mid-level leaders completed the course, and their overwhelmingly positive feedback speaks volumes about her impact as a coach and mentor.

If your organization is looking to elevate leadership capability, enhance interpersonal effectiveness, and strengthen communication across teams, I highly recommend Haley Grayless and Växa Collective.”
