What Leaders
Are Saying

The team at Leadership Development Group is wonderful to work with. We've worked with them several times over the years and from the planning phase with Melodie to the delivery from any of their trainers such as Dennis or Bill, they are top notch! They've presented in front of a variety of our members from credit union executives to our young professionals group, and were well received each time. I highly recommend LDG, you will not be disappointed.

Dennis captivated the SEPRA audience with his insightful perspectives on “Drama Free Teams in Health Care.” Our conference evaluations proved that attendees were impressed by his deep understanding of the subject matter and his ability to engage and inspire the audience.

Dennis did a great job ‘breaking the ice’ with our facilities staff (an often tough audience). One of the first things Dennis did was an exercise that required the team to talk to each other and work together. From that point forward he had their attention and interest. The content was perfect. Dennis focused on a few key principles, then built upon them to reinforce his message. I really enjoyed how he simplified a very complex concept (perfect for a facilities team). I have had Dennis present to a wide variety of audiences at the university and I would strongly recommend him to other business leaders. His message is undeniably interesting, effective and impactful.

We had the pleasure of sitting in on Dennis keynote session at the CCUCC Annual Collections and Lending Conference in Reno. Dennis was fantastic and brought so much energy to the conference. Great advice on Executive Coaching, Leadership and Team Building. His sessions will help you to be better both in your career and in your personal life.

Dennis is an engaging speaker and he knows what he's talking about! As Learning Chair for EO Raleigh-Durham, I asked Dennis to come speak to our chapter members about how to nurture high functioning teams in their businesses. Every attendee walked away with valuable insights and action items. I continue to share Dennis' insights with my EOS clients. Highly recommend Dennis!

Paul Levering

Dennis spoke for us at our conference a few years ago and I actually had an administrator tell me she was thinking about quitting and that Dennis revived her. He's one of those speakers that provides tangible takeaways that are easy to implement! Which my members love! We partnered with Dennis this year on his Leadership 101 webinar series and he's speaking at both our spring conference and annual convention. If you need a great speaker on leadership, retention, employee engagement, etc. feel free to connect with Dennis. He can also do a sales presentation to your vendors.
