Irene Stern Frielich discusses the attributes of courage, trust-building, and authenticity and how they have helped her achieve audacious goals she sets for herself. Setting those lofty goals, and having an operational plan to break down her goals and then execute on them, has helped Irene to grow her instructional design consulting business and has propelled her through writing and publishing her memoir. Now, Irene uses the same strategies to realize her goal of scheduling 50 events related to her book in the next year, while also achieving the business goals she’s set for EnVision.

Irene is the owner of EnVision Performance Solutions, an award-winning instructional design consulting firm based in Massachusetts. For the past 25 years, Irene and her team have been developing customized learning solutions for large and small corporations, not-for-profit groups, and public health organizations.

Irene’s memoir, Shattered Stars, Healing Hearts: Unraveling My Father’s Holocaust Survival Story, came out in October 2023 and has earned the #1 New Release in Jewish Biography and #1 New Release in Holocaust Biography spots on Amazon. Irene has spoken internationally about her family’s story and has had articles about her family published in German and Dutch media. She is deeply grateful to the eighteen courageous individuals who helped her family survive.
