Testimonials

PMP, Director, IT Operational Excellence

Deluxe Corporation

I attended the Leading with Passion workshop and as a result I’m more aware of what drives my success in life and the workplace. The workshop allows you to reflect on the past and helps you understand what are the drivers of your passion. As you reflect, you definitely begin to see a pattern throughout your life and the times you where successful and the times where you struggled through personal or work related situations. I’m in a work transition right now and the Leading with Passion has prepared me to look at opportunities in a different way. I’m happy I attended the workshop and recommend it to help you understand what drives you.

PGA Fall Conference

You did a fabulous job at our PGA Fall conference. My work passions are:
• Being Challenged...difficult situations that occur during the course of a normal day at the golf course.  Why, because I enjoy embracing challenges like when a thunderstorm is rolling in while 100 golfers are hitting.
• Creative Freedom...managing the golf operation.  Why, I enjoy creating solutions to needs.  Example, renovation of several holes to improve golfer enjoyment and pace of play.  
• Friendship/Laughter/Fun...Enjoyable, high energy environment.
• Responsibility...ability to take ownership of tasks,
• Control...ability to be in charge so I can control my day.  
• Accomplish...reaching a goal.  I enjoy the challenge of reaching my highest potential.

How to Keep Your Most Motivated and Engaged Workers

How would it impact your time, focus, and productivity if your best employees decided to leave tomorrow? Today, the best and brightest workers are looking for organizations that know how to support and nurture highly engaged, fully committed workers. In fact, recent surveys have found that over 70% of highly engaged workers will be looking for new positions after the current recession lifts. The reality is that engaged workers need managers who understand their unique needs.
