  • “StratOp provides a structure for our team to come together intentionally to communicate, dream, and envision our goals while helping us focus on actions we can take to accomplish those goals. I can't imagine where we'd be (or not be) if we hadn't started using StratOp 5 years ago.”

  • “Becoming a Paterson Guide has been one of the most rewarding achievements of my life. When my career took an unexpected turn in 2020, I underwent a LifePlan Facilitation, which revealed my true purpose. This pivotal experience set me on the path to becoming trained as a LifePlan and StratOp Guide.

    These roles have equipped me with incredible tools to encourage and empower individuals towards excellence, providing a deeply rewarding opportunity. As a guide, I receive ongoing, knowledgeable support from a community that genuinely cares about my success, enabling me to continually strive to be my best.”

    Ronna Keller

  • “Going through the training and certification process as a LifePlan Guide through Paterson Center has been a top-tier experience, to put it lightly. The team has done an impeccable job in both setting high standards and in providing high-quality support for their Guides, and has done well in setting me up for immediate and continued success in this meaningful work. Having recognized that running a successful LifePlan Practice will require skill in both facilitating the Process as well as in harnessing keen business acumen, Paterson has catalyzed my own personal and professional growth through the thorough training, insightful resources, and exceptional support they've provided.”
