Marianne is phenomenal! She helped me break down a problem into manageable pieces and create a strategy to clearly communicate my objectives. She listened attentively and through her thoughtful questions, I identified what I truly wanted. She provided insights on how to communicate that strategy and together we modeled how to ask for what I needed in a manner honoring both my professional goals and communication style. Her knowledge, perception of both spoken and unspoken communication, and experience are invaluable!

‘Failure to Launch!’ was my issue before meeting Marianne. I thought I knew what I needed to do, but it just wasn’t happening. Marianne got me moving, and provided much-needed wisdom and industry knowledge. She filled in gaps that I didn’t even know existed. Marianne has been flexible and kind, but also knew when to get me pushing through my self-inflicted roadblocks.

Marianne, I don’t think we have ever met but I just wanted to say thank you for all the great work you have done in support of Glass Alliance – New Mexico. And I really appreciate your strategic thinking and insights on the upcoming monthly auction program. If this new program is successful and sustainable, it could be a key element for GANM to generate ongoing revenue and raise awareness of studio glass in New Mexico.

Marianne is thorough in her processes and excellent at communication of all forms. I have also come to know her as timely, practical, trustworthy, flexible, and a master multi-tasker. She works in creative manners with effective problem-solving to get the end result. I most appreciate the way Ms. Bjelke works with careful consideration of her time with respect to our needs and our budget.
