"I first started working with Centers for Motivation staff when my manager brought them in to help the upper management staff fine tune our processes and develop new ways of dealing with challenges.

In a short period of time, we were able to analyze each division reporting under me and the areas that needed focus. We immediately were able to see an impact. Our error rates have decreased significantly and the morale is high. In addition, my understanding of how to work with difficult people in other departments as well as handle challenging situations has improved significantly. I am much more confident when I am interacting in these environments which puts me in control.

We have also brought in the Centers for Motivation to give a workshop series to our managers and staff. These included Time Management, Communication and Motivation. I have attended several classes from other organizations and none of them were as effective. The style and material first allowed the individual attendee to understand how they work and interpret information and then how to apply that knowledge to be effective. Understanding that we are all individuals and therefore do not fit in the same mold was critical to the success of these three programs. Those of us who have attended the seminars apply our knowledge to our every day environment at work and home and have experienced many successes because of it."

"I brought the Centers for Motivation into my organization more than a year ago to perform personal management coaching for our upper management team and immediately saw positive results. The enthusiasm generated from these individual sessions compelled us to share many of these techniques and strategies with a broader range of our workforce. Subsequently, we organized several full day seminars to address specific business needs in change management, communications, time management and motivation. In each case, these sessions were extremely well received by our staff. The presentation style and materials used for these seminars were concise, organized, engaging and extremely well presented. We have incorporated many of the techniques and language of these interactive seminars into our everyday business operations. In a world that is increasingly cluttered with information that is not particularly actionable, the Centers for Motivation has added several empowering and lasting management tools to our business teams."

The Centers for Motivation "offered me basic principles of management that I was able to learn and apply to every situation. He delineated where my authority lay and the responsibilities of my managers and co-workers in such a way that I was relieved of unnecessary burdens and became better at focusing on my work. He provided extremely useful and practical models, strategies and techniques for dealing with difficult situations and people. The longer I worked with Ken the better I became at understanding and using these principles to strengthen my overall performance in my job."

"Dr. Stewart Zelman at the Centers for Motivation helped me find creative ways to inspire my team to give their best performances. His techniques for running effective group meetings, for active listening, innovative game play and brainstorming have helped me as a manager bring enthusiasm and high-energy ideas to our everyday work. The Centers For Motivation 'Coaching Skills For Managers' in particular has improved my performance and that's great for the team as well."
