"Ann McGee-Cooper teaches us that 'work' and 'drudgery' are not synonymous. She shows how a job can be a source of
fellowship, zest, pride, fun, and individual expression. If we follow her precepts, we will return home refreshed, not jaded, and
inspired rather than debilitated, at the end of our 'fun day,' not our 'work day.' We will also collectively be a more productive,
competitive, and healthy society. I believe in what she says."
- Herb Kelleher
President and Chairman of the Board
Southwest Airlines
"Ann McGee-Cooper is a dynamo and has energy ideas to share. Picture a sleek, attractive woman who taught herself to tap dance for her 50th birthday and enjoys rollerblading around her Dallas neighborhood - in-between earning her doctorate in creative problem-solving, writing books, teaching college, raising a son and two stepchildren, serving as an 'energy-engineering' consultant to hundreds of corporations, and starting her own business."

"I worked with AMCA during the 1980's and mid 1990's as a group executive for one of the world's largest engineering and construction companies. Ann and her team helped me achieve a personal cultural transformation; helped me develop a successful team of business unit leaders; and helped build teaming relationships among the corporation's executive management."

"A conversation with 'energy engineer' Dr. Ann McGee-Cooper gave my tired, fast-lane life a tune-up."

"Ann McGee-Cooper delivered real Return On Investment. It is always a risk to hire a speaker/consultant to work with your group. Will they deliver more than just charisma? Will our business be a dollar more profitable as a result of spending the time and money on their involvement? Ann hit a home run in the ROI category. She changed the entire dialogue at our conference. People got their learning needs met through Ann's work. It made me look like a hero!"
