Quadrant Institute Training and Retreat Participants...

Bruce Dines — President, IDRC, Inc:

The Quadrant Leadership Institute is a place for discovery and growth, both personally and professionally. It provides a haven of rest and focus in the midst of a hectic career, and hectic life.

The friendships created are life-long, and the professional network is powerful. Brian is a powerful facilitator, providing sharp insight, challenges and leadership by his own example of alignment. I now have greater focus, greater resolve and greater commitment, both to my personal goals, my marriage, my children, my hopes, my dreams.

Greg Greenwood — President, ComCables, Inc:

An executive is rarely pushed, rather they more regularly do the pushing. Brian provides a place where executives can be held accountable for furthering their personal awareness thereby being more equipped to lead and manage their companies or teams.

Brian pushes me, which I enjoy. I like the growth he nurtures in me. Having a growth coach to regularly call me up to a higher place of awareness provides the sharpening of skills I want in my life.

Meeting in a group setting with a professional moderator brings a unique environment that I believe allows executives to focus on their own development issues. I believe that my communication effectiveness has significantly improved. I am cognizant in choosing my words especially when making commitments to any business constituents.

This has clearly aided me in having a stronger, lasting impact with those whom I routinely interact.

Brian has a gift of seeing what is going on with his clients and pushing them to see it themselves.

DeeDee LeGrand — President, LeGrand Hart, Inc:

Effective business leaders know that one brain cannot possibly contain all that’s needed to lead a business today - the world is too complex and changing too rapidly. There is not one highly effective leader I know who is not tapping an advisory whether formal or informal on some level. Brian manages group dynamics with a magic that leverages individual strengths and raises the collective wisdom.

Take any leadership training you've had, put it on steroids going Mach One and you're ready for Brian.

The Quadrant Institute experience has given me two important assets: agility and challenge. I'm more agile because I'm wasting less time. I waste less time, suffer fewer fools and get out of my own way.

The experience has an uncanny ability to get to the root of truth more quickly than any resource I know.
