4 days. I left feeling exhilarated.”

“Success has never been an issue for me.
My career has fast tracked and at age 38 I had reached my financial
and professional goals. Yet, I had no clue as how to make the transition
from an excellent "doer" to an excellent "leader".
Now the organization needed me to develop a set of skills quickly
to ensure that our sizable investment in a corporate acquisition
was maximized.
By helping me understand the dynamics
of leadership and working on a tactical personal program to fill
in the gaps of my abilities, Craig Martin invested the individual
time and attention I needed to help make me the leader the organization
needed. I would highly recommend Orion to anyone who needs the extra
edge to move their company or careers to the next level.”

“My work with Craig has
become an everyday part of my life. I apply the personality techniques
I internalized with Craig to my daily working environment. Doing
so has helped me better understand interactions I observe between
colleagues as well as work more effectively with people whose styles
differ from mine. As Craig did, I force myself to challenge assumptions
and check in with myself periodically to ensure I am doing my best
work.”

“I wanted to again thank
you for the leadership class in August. I have been incorporating
the model into how I lead and manage daily. Your class provided a
very simple to use process to increase my abilities. I can now appropriately
diagnosis the “developmental levels” of my team and adapt
my leadership style appropriately. I have been strengthening my ability
to communicate in a more directive, step by step manner, S1 & S2
leadership. This is making myself and my team more effective, less
frustrated and it is highly motivating. For the first time I feel
like I have the “missing links” in my own development,
the time and energy that you put into the integration of the concepts
was well worth it. You have made a difference.”
—SB, Hotel General Manager
