7. Testimonial from a Graduate “After being in business 12 years and having experienced two economic downturns, I thought I was well prepared to face a third financial crisis. Wrong! I had no idea just how bad things would get or how long they would last. I was so fortunate to find out about AthenaPowerLink because when all is said and done, I believe, my panel of experts were instrumental in helping me survive. When I started to doubt my own competency, my team rallied around me, bolstering my spirit and helped me maintain perspective. Aside from the moral support, my group provided excellent tactical strategies to help me evolve to a changing environment. We established a new path together, evaluated our progress and eventually turned the ship right. I went from having my best year in business in 2006, to my worst year ever in 2009 (the year I had my Athena panel) to my best year ever in 2011. There is not “one” thing I can say about my group that helped make the difference, it was many. Some ideas simmered and took shape over time and others were epiphanies that hit you between the eyes. All in all, my Athena experience was life changing and so rewarding. I have new friends, new experts on which to rely and an assurance that I truly can overcome most any obstacle.” Stacy Ethun Stevens Park Avenue Group
