“I hired Francesca at Kaizen services to help with administrative work for managing a small research grant that I had received. For this project, Francesca coordinated meetings with the international research team and participants, kept everyone on task, and managed the budget and reimbursements. After the successful completion of this multi-national research project, I hired Francesca again, this time to help me structure the many moving parts of a long-term graphic novel project that I had undergone years ago but was stalled. In addition to helping to streamline the communication between publicist, agent, artist, writer, and editors, Francesca also acted as a motivational coach who could get at the source of what was blocking movement and who would keep momentum going. When the graphic novel was finally complete, Francesca helped organize a book launch in Washington, D.C., which involved publicity, promotional materials, managing catering, flights, and the travel and accommodations of four speakers. She is very intuitive about how to optimize communication and efficiency with different people's working styles. Most importantly, Francesca is always so pleasant to work with and so supportive.”— Sherine H.
