Leading in Crisis

Testimonials

“Your Normandy program was a great experience and the entire team came home energized and eager to apply the focused insights we picked up in Normandy to the business and their own lives, . We definitely came back as better leaders!!!!! I was impressed how well the program appealed to and affected all the different nationalities in a team as diverse as mine.  I genuinely believe the Normandy experience has provided important areas for improvement in effectiveness and a strong motivation boost for my team.”

There is no better feeling for a champion of corporate learning than when a creative leadership development program makes an important difference for the organization AND wins over the skeptics. Battlefield Leadership is such a success story for General Mills. We first used Cole and Rich for one of our major division leadership teams. While some leaders were excited to use history and battles as a learning tool, others here weren’t so sure. But history came alive for all members of the team that week and it made a powerful impact on individuals and the working team. Since then numerous teams have sought out the Battlefield experience and we have an ongoing demand for this offering. I can highly recommend this program and also greatly value the partnership with the principal consultants.

Just a note to more formally express my deep appreciation conveyed to you yesterday for making my "Gettysburg experience" so memorable! Your leadership and history "lessons" have been the best I have ever experienced!
