Testimonials

Tyra is an excellent leader, creative problem solver and critical thinker. She thinks “outside the box” and her “can do” attitude often encourages even the “not so willing” to participate in productive initiatives outside their comfort zone. Tyra’s professional training and background in education, psychology, business and government combine to give her a wide range of skills upon which to draw in any environment.

Just a quick note to again thank you for your superb job facilitating today! Energetic, insightful, spiritually sensitive, fun, patient, flexible, professional and diplomatic are among the words I’d use to describe you. Because I love simplicity, I very much appreciated the straight on direct route you took to have us ask questions that needed asking and the way you required all of us to thoughtfully provide answers that can be achieved.

Pastor Randy HanesOpen the Book Ministries

Throughout my association with Tyra, I have found her to be both a quintessential leader and an outstanding team player. She is extremely knowledgeable, not only in leadership of diverse organizations and staff functions but also in personal and team coaching and group development. I know no one more adept than Tyra with people in motivating people to their potential.

Tyra, Congratulations on being selected as an IBM Headquarters Excellence Award Winner. Your leadership, coaching, and marketing work at Headquarters was a major contributing factor to the success of our field force last year.

Michael J. QuinlanVice PresidentIBM

I will so miss watching you masterfully bring people together around complex thoughts for the intended purpose of inspiring thought and action.

Karen ClevelandChairman of the BoardLeadership Fairfax Inc.

You are a very special person, with a gift for getting to the heart of the problem and making sure everyone sees it. I wish you could pass that along to me, especially in this time of stress and trouble in this organization. I enjoy talking with you so much, and always come away knowing what I need to do. You are inspirational and a unifying force! You will be missed.

Elizabeth MurphyCEOLeadership Fairfax Inc.

Tyra, thank you for your wisdom, your commitment, and your wonderful communication skills. I will always carry a little of Tyra Garlington around with me.

Darlene GlassPeninsula Motor Club

A steel magnolia through and through, Tyra has the Southern-belle delicate exterior with an unbreakable core that has seen her through many obstacles. While she has suffered abuse, loss, and cancer; her unbounded faith and belief that God has led her to help others who face insurmountable odds, volunteering to help women dealing with domestic violence and homelessness and mentoring children who live in worlds they cannot control.

Amelia TownsendDirector of CommunicationsReston Association

Tyra's intuition and ability to coach you beyond the pain of your past and inspire you to do the work
necessary to step boldly into your future is phenomenal. She is one of the wisest women I know and I
am delighted to have her in my corner, cheering me on along the way. With Tyra on my side, I am confident that I will move through the challenges life brings.”
