| “[What I
liked best were] the fast pace, depth of well researched
material, workbook, and great, friendly facilitation style.
The simplicity of the tools makes them easy to apply.
The coaching interaction was also useful.” |
|
(Debbie Payne, OD Consultant, Leadership & Learning,
Terasen Gas) |
| |
| |
| “The workshop
was a tight package of good research, worksite examples,
and individual change / improvement mechanisms. I particularly
appreciated the variety of theories rather than just one
approach. Good context mapping for how the workshop fit
with the overall program. [I also liked] the facilitator’s
style and knowledge.” |
| (Kehl
Petersen, Change Management Consultant, TELUS) |
| |
| |
| “Very good
material, both in terms of what was covered as well as
the take-aways. I will get very good use of your materials.
It won’t gather any dust on my shelf. Lots of new
ideas and concepts that I can take back to my team and
use right away.” |
| (Miriam
Libin, Senior Marketing Manager, TELUS) |
| |
| |
| “Thanks
so much for the opportunity to learn, network and share
information at your strategic leadership development breakfast.
You are a dynamic speaker who has the ability to captivate
an audience very easily. Great information session—I
will certainly spread the word.” |
| (Lisa
Winsor, Training Coordinator, SYSCO SERCA Food Services)
|
| |
| |
| “I really
enjoyed the session. I think that this was one of the
few training courses that I have walked away with an action
plan to implement some of the learning's in my day to
day behavior. I have used the action plan by putting objectives
and measures into my performance review. I firmly believe
that you do not need to be in a leadership role, i.e.
manager, to take on leadership qualities. I am focusing
on developing these qualities in my day to day activities
with my team… The information is great, as is the
instructor. He really breaks the material into components
that are easily understood and universally applicable.”

Lewison, QTG [Quaker] Canada) |

| |
| “On behalf
of the Customer Service team here at WestJet, we once
again would like to thank you for your great workshop.
I really hope that WestJet and yourself will be able have
some further discussions and workshops because I think
the material that you present will help everyone at WestJet
develop as we continue to grow.” |
| (Pino
Mancuso, Manager, Quality Manager, WestJet) |
| |
| |
| “The philosophy
of the facilitator/company comes through strongly and
sets the workshop apart from other similar material offered
by others. The experience is unique in: (1) believing
in the best in people; (2) it is possible and effective
to choose to put dignity and positive attitude into seemingly
mundane tasks and work situations; (3) the vision for
integration and authenticity between work and personal
lives; and (4) the emphasis on taking it from the abstract
to concrete applicability… Joel I have learned a
great deal, and the information and values you impart
in leadership and management training have empowered me
to handle some large transitions smoothly. I will take
the learning with me and integrate it into my future work,
for it has made a large impact on me. I cannot thank you
enough Joel.” |

Grogan, Director, Servant’s Anonymous) |

| |
| “I had to
send you a thank you note today to tell you how much I
enjoyed your workshop yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed
your invigorating presentation style and admired your
ability to get through so much material without compromising
the excellent content. I particularly liked how you combined
your personal philosophy with extensive research and experience
and felt this resulted in a more authentic and practical
workshop. Legacy is a wonderful name for the series, as
this is what you and Advanture are leaving to participants—a
legacy of being true to yourself as a manager and allowing
your integrity and honesty to inspire your team to reach
their full potential. I think this is a huge responsibility
in today's workplace, and encourage you to keep doing
what you're doing!” |

for us in the toolkit.” |

Rutherford, Account Manager, NewsWest Corp.) |
| |

was very relevant to what I do everyday. It gave me some
new ideas and reinforced some of current practice.”
|
| (Karen
Atchison, Personnel Manager, Grand Casino) |
| |
| |
| “Looking
at my work environment and fellow employees helps me find
what is required of me. Just being a leader is too vague.
[This workshop helped me] look at what other employees
need.” |
| (Anita
Butler, Logistics Coordinator, CHC Helicopters) |
| |
