Testimonials for Visioning and Strategic Planning Workshops
When it comes to facilitating, Uta stands in a league of her own. As a person, she possesses a captivating aura that draws people into the heart of the process or problem at hand, all thanks to her remarkable questioning techniques and ability to connect effortlessly with her audience. But that's not all—Uta's secret weapon lies in her visualization prowess. By skillfully incorporating visual elements, she elevates discussions to new heights, making them not only audible but also visible, engaging participants in exercises that bring ideas to life on the board.
Such a rare combination of facilitation skills is hard to come by. Having worked with various coaches and facilitators over the years, I can attest that Uta's blend of creativity, intellect, and compassion is nothing short of magical. Her influence leaves a lasting impact on the people and companies fortunate enough to collaborate with her, making them come back for more, time and time again. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend Uta with absolute confidence. She's a facilitation virtuoso you don't want to miss out on!

As an entrepreneur for the past forty years, I have had the opportunity to collaborate with many consultants and corporate facilitators. I can say, without reservation, Uta is a league of her own!
Uta took me and my team through a one-day vision casting workshop. I was amazed at her ability to bring us all along, engage our input, keep us to task, tie a multitude of complexities together and enable great outcomes.
She has a wonderful way with people, advanced understanding of leadership and interpersonal relationships and unlike many other facilitators an affinity with business principles.
Uta’s unique ability to link our minds to ideas, and possibilities, allowed us to walk away with a renewed vision and an executable plan for ReGenesis360!"

I recently attended one of Uta's business development workshops. It was a wonderful experience to say the least. Uta is a wealth of knowledge in many areas. Her ability to communicate with the group and facilitate the exercises she put us all through was absolutely fantastic. As someone who is very visual and learns by doing, the exercises and processes she had us go through were very effective for me to learn, grow, and gain a deeper understanding of the concepts we covered. I look forward to doing more workshops with her to further our businesses. Thank you, Uta!

I attended a Visioning Casting workshop organized and executed by Uta Birkmayer. I have attended a number of company workshops over the years. Uta crushed it. She made it fun, engaging, and extremely informative and inspiring. All attendees immediately felt comfortable and contributed fully. The room was covered from end to end with custom made banners that invited attendee participation and input. The visuals were so beneficial for the participants and more so for the client who now has a written record of the entire workshop in physical and digital form. It was an action packed 5 hours. It was by far the best workshop I have attended in my 40 years of business experience. Thank you Uta for your incredible talent and passion.

Uta and her Xsense team have been integral to the success of our Trilogy communities. This is particularly the case when we have brought them on board in the earliest, conceptual stages of our planning and design process. The world-class skill-sets that Xsense offers, as an augmentation to our team’s vision, have become fundamental to our success. Through their extensive research, creativity, and meticulous execution, Xsense has been invaluable in helping us establish not only a decisive competitive advantage, but also create communities that feel right to our residents. The value-added ingredients that Xsense delivers, far beyond the ‘bricks and mortar’ of their home, give our residents a sense of belonging to a real community, in the true sense of the term. That was always our goal when we conceived the Trilogy concept and Xsense has helped us raise the bar on the delivery of our vision.

Experiential Design is what the next level of branding looks like. Xsense breathes life into inert real estate. Gives it meaning and drives purposeful development. Our business, like most businesses, is very fragile. One day you are on top, the next day you are on the rubbish-heap of also-rans. It is incumbent upon all of us to remain fresh and relevant. There is no better way in telling your timeless authentic story and no one better than Uta Birkmayer and Xsense to tell that story and to pull that thread through all that you do. Your customer will appreciate it and reward you handsomely. As president of a leading residential lifestyle developer, I learned the incredible value of this initiative. This is Uta's brainchild. Authenticity is her secret sauce and it helped us enjoy a true competitive edge. Her first fully executed project was the most successful in Shea Homes' 150-year history. We enjoyed a 3.5% premium to our home prices, adding $27M to our bottom line. And yes, this all happened in 2008. I rest my case.

Customer Experience
Uta Birkmayer is an important contributor to our international Experience Academy Executive Course in Europe. She and her team give life to our theme of Value Creation through Experience. Extracting meaningful experiences exactly fits our view on a new perspective on the Experience Economy. Xsense approaches experiential design not as marketing trick but as an important process that has the ability to transform our lives. This is an important reason why we invite Uta Birkmayer to contribute to our course and develop a multicultural executive course in the USA.
