About

The Thrive Hive has provided an environment for me to focus on my work. I am highly motivated to get my work done while on the call because I am accountable to the group. It has also introduced me to people who’ve become my friends while we work together and support one another. Deb has provided support and guidance throughout, generously sharing her tech info. Interaction with and learning from the others in the group and having focused time to get my work done keep me coming back week after week. The Thrive Hive is different from other online groups in which I participate in that it allows for two-way interactions and continuing learning, not just from Deb (who is great!) but also from others on the call. I love the camaraderie we have developed over the last year.

I especially appreciate being introduced to Julie Bestry, the most diligent researcher and expert communicator I have ever met, and I am a professional market researcher. She is generous beyond belief.

I have had a website for a couple of years, and recently switched to WordPress. Deb took the time to really help me understand some of the processes and applications that make managing my website more efficient.

She is a pleasure to talk with, and given the technology we have today, we were able to work in real time on my website to accomplish tasks. I strongly recommend her to anyone.

Deb Lee is a technology guru!  I recently heard her presentation on productivity apps for small businesses, and although I pride myself on being a very productive person, I learned so many new things! Deb’s kind personality and obvious knowledge of all things tech made the presentation so enjoyable. I have attended various presentations in the past and I can honestly say that Deb’s was by far the most content rich and easy to listen to one that I have ever attended. I know that I have just discovered the tip of the iceberg in terms of what D. Allison Lee has to offer, and I’m excited to learn more from her in the near future!

Deb Lee recently presented at a brunch for a DC-area women’s networking group that I co-founded. Our group,The Grapevine, includes women from a variety of organizations in the antitrust and consumer protection fields, including government enforcers, attorneys in private practice, economists, and women in academia. Deb developed a program on time-management issues that appealed across this broad spectrum of attendees. Her presentation was polished, professional, and engaging. Since this presentation, several attendees have contacted me to compliment our group, crediting Deb’s presentation to the success of the overall event.

Thoroughly enjoyed your presentation on business blogging. I knew I had a lot to learn (don’t know what you don’t know, right?) and your talk was just what I needed. Not only are you engaging and interesting, but you provided so much relevant information without crossing the line to being overwhelming. Given the topic, that’s quite a feat! With a wide range of expertise in the room, you found a way to speak directly to each of us …in language we could all understand.
