Donna
Satchell is a Professional Speaker, Success Skills Trainer, Author, and President
of STARR Consulting & Training, an organization dedicated to
motivating, training, and helping individuals and businesses achieve
greater success. Donna's trademark, Just Get Serious™, is her business
and life philosophy. She is serious
about designing and delivering programs and speeches that are engaging, interactive,
and get results.
Donna
is equally serious about developing herself into the best possible
person she can be.
Prior to starting
her business, Donna worked at Clairol/Bristol-Myers where she
achieved several remarkable accomplishments including: 1)
Graduating from college with top honors while working full-time as an administrative assistant; 2) Being
the first administrative
assistant promoted into a management-level marketing position at
Clairol; 3) Receiving numerous individual and team awards and
being recognized as one of the company’s experts on field-based
analysis and category management.
After Donna left
Clairol in 2002, she began to pursue her dream of helping businesses
develop their employees and helping individuals become more
successful. A partial list of her corporate and governmental
clients include: The City of Atlanta, The Coca-Cola Company, Cox
Enterprises, The Department of Labor, U.S. Small Business
Administration, G.E. Consumer Finance and Centers for Disease
Control (CDC).
For several women's organizations,
Donna is one of their favorite speakers because she understands the challenges many women face having
encountered them herself. She has worked with the following organizations and events:
International Association of Administrative Professionals,
American Business Women’s
Association,
Dress for Success, Clemson
University’s Conference for Women, SCORE Conference For Women and
Coca Cola’s Women Leadership Conference.
Donna is the 2008 - 2009 winner of “The Best
Motivational Speaker in Five Minutes or Less” and “The Two Minute
Adversity Challenge Speech”, presented by The Twinkie Awards, which
honors small business creativity and excellence. See
press release for details.
To help individuals
gain further knowledge and stay motivated beyond her training programs and
speeches, Donna co-authored several books with other training
experts like herself. The 303 Solutions series includes
“quick read” books on time management, goal achievement, leadership,
communication, and other topics. Also, along with Les Brown and
Wally “Famous” Amos, Donna is one of nine authors featured in The
Power of Motivation. For information about her books and CDS,
visit her on-line store.
Donna’s passion for helping others,
lead her and a colleague, Lynda Shorter, to form Women Aspiring Together To Succeed. This group brings
women together to grow in their awareness, understanding, and
practice of the many self-care, self-empowerment and
self-achievement concepts expressed today by various authors.
Several members have credited the group with helping them make major
changes in their lives. Founded in 2000, the group continues to meet
to motivate and empower women.
To keep her skill set current and
stay abreast of changes within her industry, Donna is a member
of the American Society for Training & Development and
National Speakers Association (NSA). She is the
past recipient of the NSA Georgia Chapter’s
Spirit Award for her outstanding
commitment and contribution.
