THE ROGERS GROUP

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

Your workshops and coaching on communication and team building were just what we needed! Through your sensitivity and persistent prodding, everyone in our office opened up and gained valuable insights regarding roadblocks that were keeping us from being successful. By helping us build a much stronger foundation based on mutual understanding and accountability with the staff, we've developed a highly cohesive team.  What a difference it makes to have everyone on the same page, working together to achieve their missions!

Thank you for speaking to our group.  Your heartfelt presentation and stories contained a powerful message to families who are struggling to stay together.  Your presentation could be given to any organization that is concerned about the welfare of its member families.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my agency’s appreciation for the enlightening and dynamic presentation you gave on Leadership and Accountability.  We were grateful to learn about these topics, and gained a much-needed fresh perspective that energized our staff as we look forward to using your suggestions and ideas for excelling in these areas.   If we at the Lighthouse can assist you in any way in the future, please feel free to contact us.

Wow!  What a terrific presentation!  By cutting right to the heart to what it means to be mutually accountable and how that impacts performance, relationships, and teamwork, you’ve provided a blueprint that businesses  and families can use to build a strong foundation of trust and synergy.  Any organization that is not operating at peak efficiency would greatly benefit from your words of wisdom.

Your greatest gift as a speaker and coach is your ability to inspire others, to build bridges and provide innovative yet practical problem-solving approaches that unite people and pave the way for greater individual, team, and organizational success.

Year-in and year-out, Dr Tom continues to be a highly valued speaker at our convention.  He has a wealth of practical knowledge, and just as importantly, is able to communicate it in an understandable and down-to-earth manner that our audiences relate to very well.  Whether speaking about building accountability in the workplace, getting the best out of people, or saving the family business, we know he’ll be doing so with the kind of passion, humor, and energy that draws people in and keeps them wanting more.

Dr. Tom Rogers developed a structured interview system to help select salespeople for our chain of automotive parts warehouses headquartered in Detroit—H&H Wheel Service, Inc.  The impact of his program is that the quality of salespeople our warehouse managers subsequently hired is substantially better than before.  Dr. Tom’s system is easy to use and understand as well as effective.

Dr. Tom conducted training sessions with our warehouse managers in order to introduce the selection program.  He was well-organized, energetic, and informative.  He also effectively utilized role plays to help our managers understand the interview system and the likely situations they’d encounter during the hiring process.

We were particularly impressed with Dr. Tom’s follow-thru.  When the training sessions were concluded, he stayed in contact with our managers, answering their questions as he coached them on following the hiring process.  It was this final step that cemented in our managers’ minds exactly what they needed to do to successfully work the interview system.

I highly recommend Dr. Tom as a Coach, Consultant, or Trainer.  He knows what it takes to make a payroll and build a strong business in a highly competitive environment.  And with his “in the trenches” approach, he works well with people at all different levels of a company.

Your efforts, Dr. Tom, have been instrumental in helping me navigate through some challenging situations in my company.  Your strong support and understanding along with your profound wisdom and clarity of thought in high pressure situations have been an invaluable source of guidance for me.

I want to thank you for the Coaching that you provided me recently.  As you recall, we met at your business seminar last Fall, and I was impressed with your work at that time.

Your guidance through the Values Scan, Family Strategic Plan, and Mission Statement  ere clearly delineated.  You provided the right balance of theory and practice that made it possible for me to complete my work in a timely manner.  As a result, I’ve successfully presented the Family Strategic Plan and Mission Statement to my family.  Your encouragement to complete this project is very much appreciated.

 Sincerely,

  Norb Teclaw                                                                                                                                  ACMI                                                                                                                                             A Division of Con Quest

 

 Dear Tom,

We were very pleased with the Organizational Survey and Assessment you completed for Mutual Savings Bank, f.s.b. (“MSB”). From start to finish, you and your company executed this project in an organized and efficient manner. Your communication throughout the project regarding its status was also exceptional.

The completed Organizational Assessment for MSB was thoroughly documented and well written. We found both the process and the completed product to be well worth our investment.

Thank you again. We would not hesitate to recommend you and your company to others.

Very truly yours,

Robert N. Shuster Chief Executive Officer                                                                                         Mutual Savings Bank
