Jacqueline Widmer, Psy.D - YPO Forum Facilitator

She makes you feel safe and then breaks down barriers that block you from opening up, and brings you closer to your forum mates. Gentle but strong, the absolutely perfect combination for a CFF.

It was very raw and personal and helped us to address issues that were simmering below the surface. I loved the way she engaged us with nothing but deep conversations and honest sharing. No videos, no slides, no gimmicks. Like nothing I have experienced before.

One of the best things about Jacqueline is that she is able to read the room and completely disregard her agenda to address the challenges/opportunities that arose from our discussion and really helped us to forge a stronger forum.

Jacqueline is a first rate moderator who brings a sense of intimacy and vulnerability into the forum from the very beginning. Her tone is genuine and she sets the bar high in terms of the standards of what is shared. She does all of that while not taking her eye of the mark in terms of making the group bond and leave the session with a deeper sense of insight about themselves and each other. I would highly recommend Jacqueline to any group who is struggling to go beyond surface emotion and unlock a deeper level of connectedness.

By the time we finished our Forum retreat, her impact was more than obvious. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that our Forum grew deeper during and after the session, and we now have tools at our disposal to continue growing in a meaningful way.

Jacqueline is a very knowledgeable Forum Facilitator. Having been trained in other similar subjects in my past experiences, I can confirm that Jacqueline was one of the best facilitators I have had. She is very approachable, open to receiving all kinds of questions, and made me feel very comfortable sharing my vulnerabilities amongst complete strangers.

Jacqueline brought a fresh approach to the Forum retreat we had. First of all, she invested a lot of time in getting to know each and everyone of us, and then tailored the session to our needs. The day we spent with her was really good because I had a lot of take home value (insights and things I learned) and we really connected as a group.

Jacqueline is an amazing professional with a lot of empathy and knowledge about how to help a group and an individual to go deeper in their sharing and all this with a lot of tact. She is a great human being too!

Jacqueline navigated difficult waters with us with grace and tact, gently waiting for us to get to the right conclusion on our own.

Jacqueline has an extended knowledge in psychology, yet she is very likeable and humble. She mastered our forum retreat work in an impressive way. She was constantly aware of all forum members’ reactions, calm but efficient and allowed pauses and breaths when needed. This is the deepest work our forum has done so far and we have grown a lot and are equipped with the necessary tools for making future forums a success.

She is very knowledgeable, engaged, clear, focused and showed me exciting ways of moderating the forum. Two thumbs up!
