What People Say About Fern
It’s the way she connects with people and impacts the way they think and act.
I am pleased to lend my professional support and confidence to Fern Silver who has been working with our organization for approximately 20 years. Fern has delivered training opportunities and experiences to thousands of The New England agents in a program called our Career School. She brings to these individuals an understanding that it is their own capabilities within that will allow them to be the successes that they want to be. In her presentations and individual work, she allows individuals to step forward with the courage to commit to goals that they were not willing to even conceive.
Fern has also helped us design mementos and recognition pieces that are part of our ongoing career school program. Her ability to discuss and understand the very core of our motivational message allowed her then to translate our concerns into a very tangible piece which we are able to present to our school participants. I would highly recommend you working with her, both as an outstanding contributor and participant in conferences and seminars, as well as a creative promotional and marketing vendor.
Fern, you express what’s in your heart through your voice. You’re a connection to all of us. You speak to a group and all of a sudden, momentarily, we become one! I don’t know how you do it, but you do.
Talk, talk, talk, are what most motivational speakers do. I don’t sense many live the talk, But, Fern Silver is the EXCEPTION. If I have ever seen a person who completely carries out and lives her beliefs, it’s you.
Dear Fern,
I’m on an airplane on my way to Austin, Texas. People must think I’m a little strange because every now and then I chuckle or grin real big or tear up and have to take big deep breaths to compose myself.
You did me the greatest favor that anybody in my life ever has and for that and what you do for others, I love you very much. You’re terrific. I met a stranger while in Boston. I love him, I do. I respect him for what he is, accept him for what he is not, and admire him for what he aspires to be. YOU INTRODUCED US. That man is me.
Thank you so much. Best wishes and continued success.
Fern has enthusiasm, character, and CARES. We grow, develop, and flourish on these great qualities.
Dear Fern,
What a wonderful contribution you made to our JAG (Jones Apparel Group) meeting and to many lives. I still get comments from the coordinators about your uplifting spirit and your way of refocusing everyone in the direction of what really matters in life. I went out and purchased ‘Tuesdays With Morrie’ and cried all the way through the story. I have since passed It on to all of my siblings and parents. Thank you for the recommendation.
I received your very thoughtful gift ‘Love You Forever’ and I will cherish it always. I will need to get a list of the other children’s books you talked about because I would like to have them all for our new little one’s nursery.
Thank you again for all that you’ve done and for your sincere thoughtfulness and generosity.
This is just a short note to tell you I thought your presentation was excellent! Thank you for doing a great job in helping our Atlantic City meeting a success.
I enjoyed the many messages on vision and persistency. The message of “never letting up” is so true. The Little Engine is a great reminder to all of us.
Thanks again. You were great!!
Dear Fern,
I cannot tell you how much of an inspiration you were to me during the week I spent at the American College attending the Women’s Seminar. I really appreciate the time you spent talking to me, providing encouragement which I know was very sincere.
We need more people like you that are full of enthusiasm, helping people meet their challenges.
One of the most enjoyable hours spent at Career School was with Fern Silver
I don’t recall every seeing so much energy in one person – she is a wonderful motivator. She deeply touched me emotionally – I laughed, cried, and learned to overcome fears I did not know I even had. Most importantly, she was able to motivate me to the point of knowing I need to make some changes in my life, my clients’ lives, and my prospective clients’ lives. I left that school with a job to do. She has certainly made a change in my life.
Fern:
Your presentation at The New England Career School was one of the best I have seen in my 9 years in the business. You have really made a difference in my outlook on my career. Little changes do add up to big successes! Thank you for sharing so much of yourself in order that we may better ourselves. It’s easy to see that you truly do love the game.
Dear Ms. Silver:
On behalf of the entire Early Outreach staff, I would like to thank you for the very informative and valuable presentation you did for our Saturday College students and parents. It is people like yourself who help our students to grow and achieve their short-term and, ultimately, long -term goals. Your presentation will be long remembered!
Dear Fern,
Thank you so much for speaking to the Youth Opportunities Unlimited Program at The University of Texas at Arlington. Your motivational speech was quite inspiring to both the staff and the students.
Again, thanks for volunteering your time in the program.
