Verna Wong

As a consultant and principal coach of Verna Wong HR Services, LLC , my philosophy in working with clients is it is most important they have the professional who can best meet their needs. If I am not that individual, I will inform the client, and will do my best to help him/her find the right individual.

I also believe in long-term relationships and alignment of our values. Doing the right thing, with honesty, integrity, warmth and fun is important.
