"The COSMO Advantage class was worth more to me than my entire law school education. I wish I had taken this class years ago."

“COSMO is an intuitive technique that helps leaders influence people and obtain insight. As a coach, I utilize this model as a supplement to my own frameworks and as a separate one to help others grow, develop, and enhance their circles of influence. COSMO training was experiential and provided great peer discussion that aided in learning, understanding, and applying COSMO to varied markets.”

"COSMO is applicable to all healthcare professionals, in any aspect of their life. I think it may help improve patient satisfaction. The opportunity to practice the concepts we were learning and then receive feedback from peers was so valuable."

"COSMO training came during a significant transition in both my life and leadership. The framework, readings, and activities gave me exactly what I needed to clarify my goals, create a plan, and track my progress to finish well as a VP in an organization.

The learning environment offered meaningful connection, accountability, and encouragement—helping me apply COSMO dynamics directly to real-life leadership challenges. I’m confident this approach made me a more self-aware, intentional, and focused leader. I now have tools I can carry into any personal or professional context—for strong, lasting results."

“After 40+ years of research and developing systems for teaching – I found COSMO is, by far, the simplest and most effective approach to coaching and facilitating effective change.”

“Leadership can be hard. You’re often faced with difficult challenges that you’ve never seen before. Instead of feeling lost and ill equipped, COSMO provides a consistent framework for tackling those challenges with confidence and grace. COSMO is an essential tool for leaders.”

“Medicine is a team sport, but we aren't taught how to play well or effectively together. We aren't taught how to lead or given a common problem-solving language to use with our teams. The skills I learned through COSMO are what separate good physicians from average or struggling ones.

Every medical student needs COSMO before residency. So many of the leadership problems we encounter could be prevented if people learned this model and received this training.”

“This Leadership E-Course opened my eyes to integrating faith into every aspect of my work. Through Jerri Ann’s teachings and the biblical COSMO model, I gained invaluable tools to lead with clarity and purpose, grounded in faith-based principles.”

"COSMO is an adaptable framework. As a coach, it helps me take clients through uncomfortable dialogues by clarifying huge concepts or ideas. My husband and I use this approach to future-cast our business, which helps us see important outcomes."

“A lot of us are in change management processes as a leader—you’re maybe in 10, 20 different change management projects, each at a different part of that journey. So being able to point to a tool like this (COSMO) to help a team member quickly see where we are at can be really helpful. This training provides tools to communicate with teams and share our work towards a common vision.”

“We wanted a better way to evaluate company and client opportunities. Using COSMO reduces miscommunications and the need for reworking mistakes, accelerating ongoing progress. COSMO has helped clarify each person’s perspective and problem-solving approach. Simply put, COSMO is the gift that keeps on giving!”

“Whether it’s for me personally or a client, this tool is invaluable and I’ve put it to use with great success already. I believe the application of this course will be strategic in the lives of clients and bring great value to your coaching abilities.”

"The COSMO scaffolding is more than helpful; it is essential in understanding not only where we are, but where we want to go, in a variety of life's venues. Healthcare professionals at any level of leadership will benefit from this training. These concepts will greatly impact my relationships with colleagues and my non-profit board."

"Creating buy-in with my team doesn't come from having all the answers or solving problems myself. I use COSMO to ask clarifying questions so people become part of the solution. It creates respect, buy-in & shared ownership.



One thing I'll never be able to unsee is the importance of self-awareness. Learning how to calm myself during stressful situations has made me a better leader for my team."

“COSMO training 10-20x’d my investment and results in my business.”

"Every week I looked forward to the prep and live cohort sessions. Interacting with others in the cohort and having a chance to learn from their experiences was incredibly valuable. COSMO provides a good bridge for physicians and nurses to communicate with patients and families. Because it is a repeatable and consistent way of thinking, I’ve also found it helpful for communicating with colleagues and med students."

“Two of my biggest take-aways: slow down and stop assuming. What matters to other people isn't always what matters to me & just because I see a problem doesn't mean they see it the same way. I've learned that relationships, understanding different perspectives & keeping people aligned and moving in the same direction are essential to solving problems.”

"When we lost an employee and the thought of training someone new honestly felt overwhelming. I reminded myself 'I don’t have to do this all by myself—we can do this together. Not everything has to be perfect—we are only human.' I leaned into my teammates and we used COSMO to come up with a plan and move things forward."

"COSMO is a tool that equipped me with an overall mental map, giving a broader perspective on how to view circumstances and relationships. COSMO’s holistic nature (external, internal, professional, personal, and spiritual, all integrated into one framework) helped me shift how I approach, respond to, and think about people and situations. The emphasis on developing relational skills significantly enhanced COSMO’s effectiveness and sets it apart."

"We had lost an employee & I was completely overwhelmed thinking about having to train someone new. What I learned in these courses helped me realize I'm only human—I don't have to do it all myself & it doesn't have to be perfect. COSMO helped me create a plan and move forward with confidence."

“I've taken a lot of leadership classes—COSMO brought all the concepts I've learned into perspective. It helped me integrate and apply them in a structured format, in a way no one (and nothing) else has."

"Every manager in our organization needs to learn this framework! COSMO provides a shared language and structure to organizational thinking and change processes. These courses train leaders to communicate in ways that support their staff and build trust.

"COSMO provides a framework to get to the heart of the matter whether one is assessing a patient, leading a team, or coaching a client. Using COSMO illuminates gaps and highlights areas of questions that will lead to increased awareness and forward movement. 

This content is relevant for all PTs, OTs, SLP, healthcare leaders and administrators, as well as in healthcare programs in universities and continuing education."

"This is a must for every leader! I'm using COSMO with my team & because we're all learning the same framework, we're speaking the same language in meetings. It's helping me lead with more clarity. 

The relational skills we gained helped me learn to slow down, get my emotions in check & then use COSMO to help me think about what to do next or come up with a plan."

“I see problems. I see solutions. And I want to fix them right away, but often I haven’t provided enough clarity to others and then left people behind. COSMO gave me a structured approach, tools & language to create alignment, bring people through the process & help teams navigate change at a pace they can embrace.”

"This framework gave me a way to quickly identify what’s missing or needs attention when problems arise. The relational skills I gained gave me a whole new outlook as a leader. "

"Transformational & Liberating: I’m communicating with more confidence and clarity—and I think my leaders are appreciating it. A big shift for me was learning that mature leaders don't simply give answers—they ask clarifying questions that help people think, grow & move forward. That has transformed the way I lead and the weight I carry."

“When time is money, clarity is imperative in providing leadership to any organization. Clarity Training (COSMO) has provided me with a versatile tool to use in various settings to help my coaching clients gain clarity faster.”

“In my role as a Correctional Chaplain and Pastor, I consistently use the COSMO Framework and illustrations to help inmates grow and develop. I’m truly grateful for what I’ve learned about myself and others using the COSMO Framework. I will continue using this framework for all of my endeavors and continue enrolling in VitalStrengths Coaching & Training programs so I can better serve my family and community.”

"COSMO works well with both patients and coworkers because it’s consistent and easy to repeat. It helps quickly identify a patient’s misconceptions or disconnects and refocus the conversation."

“We gained a lot of clarity and a whole lot of momentum. Simplify your leadership, family, and team's success with COSMO.”

“I sought COSMO training to improve my abilities and help my clients, but I’ve found its uses are unlimited. It’s excellent for anyone who desires to grow. COSMO outlines the five elements of human achievement. COSMO is worth the investment since it’s wisdom-based and adaptable. Don’t miss out on a tool framework that works with all your other tools.”

“I use the COSMO framework to help me choose and commit to goals; also for acquiring insight into my present realities and resources.“

"This course came at a really difficult time for me as a leader. Our department was going through a big transition & my team was at a very low point. Through the breakout sessions and talking with other leaders, I realized I wasn't alone, which helped build my confidence back up."

“Jerri’s coaching was transformational to both my personal and professional life. She did an amazing job helping me to unpack, understand and embrace my talents. The questions and deep insight she gave helped me learn how to begin to utilize the talents I have in order to maximize my leadership.”

“My goal with strengths coaching was to unapologetically offer my talents to the world. Coaching with Jerri has done just that! I now have greater self-awareness and can effectively lead and make decisions out on my strengths.

Jerri is very skilled at questioning, asking, and guiding people into important self-discovery on their leadership journey. Through her coaching, I gained confidence in my decision-making and a greater understanding of how I lead most effectively. I also became more empowered to make my business and leadership dreams a reality.”

Due to the meaningful impact of Jerri Ann’s
leadership on my life years ago, I hired her as a coach. My relationship with her has been one of the most impactful in my life. I left each coaching session excited and eager to learn more about myself and my potential as a leader. One thing I appreciated the most about our time together was how each conversation provided time for reflection as well as information on how to practically utilize the knowledge gained in day-to-day interactions. As a result, I have been able to build trusting relationships with my staff and have meaningful conversations around growth and development.

“The best kind of coaching is a unique blend of compassionate curiosity with clear-eyed, practical insight. Jerri exemplifies this masterfully in her coaching. Over the last several years I’ve watched her provide tremendous benefit to the complex organizational world of nonprofits. Whether working with leaders, field directors, or volunteers, she does an exceptional job of getting to the root of people’s concerns or issues and providing invaluable help with effective steps forward. I can’t imagine a better coach for your organization.”

“I certainly have a deeper understanding of my talents and how they impact my work and leadership. Jerri Ann helped me lay a foundation of awareness that will continue to help me assess my future opportunities and guide career decisions. Her questions in helping me sort through my strengths and how they impact my daily life and decisions were invaluable.”

“Receiving coaching from Jerri Ann was so impactful that upon finishing my introductory sessions, I immediately referred my team members to her! Jerri offers deeply insightful and thoughtful coaching that brought me and those whom I lead great practical clarity to our individual roles, as well as, great relational understanding that then benefited our organization as a whole. Understanding my personal strengths through coaching sessions with Jerri gave me great freedom in my work and personal life to live out of those strengths and enable those I lead to do the same.”

“I experience Jerri Ann as a coach who is a gifted listener with incredible insights into helping others succeed in their design and purpose in life. She quickly establishes rapport, provides clarity, and helps clients move forward. If you want to be true to yourself, feel fully alive, and achieve more than you ever have before, get with Jerri!”
