The creativity and expertise from Donna Griggs and the Propel Change Global team led to an efficient, cost effective ERP implementation. They used the Simple Change System, and taught us everything we needed to know to be successful and manage it to insure our continued success.

– Andrea DiDonna, Principal, Global Consulting Organization

Propel Change Global was a great partner in moving us to a formalized change management approach that we could implement throughout our entire hospital system. The group training and individual coaching was a great way to mobile our resources so they could fully internalize the process. And, our employees respected the fact that their peers were able to guide them through changes, which resulted in more acceptance of the changes. It’s nice to know that there are consultants who want to make their clients self sufficient!

– Margie Forshee, Vice President, Revenue Cycle Management, Large HealthCare System

I cannot say enough about how successful our project turned was. We started with a failed change attempt, then called Donna and her team to the rescue. Donna explained what they would do, where we had to be involved, and the results we should expect. But, the results exceeded everyone’s expectations. Donna has a unique ability to touch every single person that is involved in change and it is obvious that she cares! She has very creative approaches to make it all work together…all custom to each client’s situation. It’s almost like magic to watch. Donna is unlike any consultant I have ever met…she loves to teach people her secrets and feels like “winning” means they can do it themselves next time! It is amazing!

– Ram R., President of Strategy, Global Consulting Organization

Donna Griggs and Propel Change Global have been an integral part of developing strategy and leading team building sessions for the past several years since we engaged them at Ghertner & Company. Through thought provoking questioning and insightful analysis of our company, systems, and team leaders, she has helped us navigate strategic opportunities as well as endeavors that do not fit our core competency and mission. I look forward to many years of assistance from Propel Change Global as we continue to grow in our market.

– Scott F. Ghertner, CPM, PCAM, Ghertner & Company

Thank you for preparing a thorough and detailed first session with my Senior Management team. It was a great use of a portion of our annual strategic planning retreat and we are all excited to kick it off in a few weeks. I am thrilled that in just one day, Propel Change Global has used their unique methods to help us focus on areas that will result in significant and quantifiable annual savings for our service group. I was enlightened and at the same time, impressed by a process that was surprisingly quick and kept our entire senior management team engaged.

– Steve Scott, SVP of Commercial Services, Lee Company

Donna Griggs has an inventive, smart approach to organizational transformation. She listened closely to our needs, and crafted an innovative program that helped us achieve our objectives. She couples research with practical advice – and delivers tools and strategies for building high-performance organizations.

– Patricia Carl, Global Chief Human Resources Officer

Propel Change Global contributed greatly to the success of our quarterly management team retreat. With the knowledge that many personalities with competing interests would be in attendance, they brought in a refreshing perspective. Propel Change Global met with the leadership in advance to define clear goals and assisted with the development of an agenda that ensured the completion of predefined deliverables at the retreat. The agenda ensured that no time was wasted, the important topics were addressed, and an accountability plan for future tasks was implemented.

Due to heavy, hands-on involvement from our management team, the methodology embraced by Propel Change Global helped us create sustainable solutions that continue to benefit us as we grow. We will continue using their services and refer them to clients who have needs for strategy / execution, continuous improvement or implementing change.

– Meredith Schultenover, President, Kraft Enterprise Systems

Donna really opened our eyes. In just a few short hours, she helped us pare away the distracting issues and get to the core problems we need to tackle. However, by beginning the process by examining our assets, we went into the session with a sense of “can do” rather than “can’t”. Very smart.

I also really appreciated her willingness to stop us from engaging in conversations that didn’t get us closer to our goal. Everyone in the group recognized the value of explicitly staying on track. She made a real difference very quickly. And the fact that she followed up so quickly was one more way she set herself apart from the usual. I’d work with her again in a second.

– Buddy Teaster, President & CEO, Soles4Souls, Inc

In working with Propel Change, we have been able to implement training that serves two purposes: train the participants, and provide a foundation for our learning programs. Their creative business approach provides the flexibility needed to define the project objectives, align the appropriate change management plan for implementation, and keep the stakeholders motivated during all phases of the project, including sustainment; all the while balancing the issues and potential risks of a project. Propel Change provides us with a dependable partnership built on innovation, professionalism, and quality standards that positively impact our business.

– Jennifer Reinbold, Lead Manager, Leadership and Business Skills Training, Harley-Davidson Inc.

Throw any previous expectations you have about leadership training out the window. This leadership program is beyond anything I imagined! You grow as a person, team member and leader! Donna ’s leadership program does so much more than just provide information on a topic. All of the sessions are very interactive…and we start out each session talking about how we have used what we learned. It helps me get great ideas from others!

– Jacob M., Transportation Industry Leader Colorado

This exceeded my expectations! I gained valuable skills, great hands-on coaching, and connections that resulted in close friendships with people in our group.

– Erika F., Transportation Industry Leader, Colorado

Donna is engaging, fun, realistic and provides a very well rounded program!
And, you get amazing, valuabe hands on coaching.

– Dana W., Transportation Industry Leader, Colorado

Donna’s energy is uniquely effective and she has a no-nonsense, practical approach that provides great leadership tools and life skills… this program is both attainable and sustainable skills.

– Zoe D., Transportation Industry Leader, Colorado

I have attended several leadership courses and this is the only one that I feel was valuable and worth the money invested. Donna is an incredible wealth of knowledge!

– Eric E., Transportation Industry Leader, Colorado

Propel Change made something we struggled with for months seem very easy. They were able to add tremendous value to every area they touched. Their positive energy and creativity was felt and appreciated throughout the entire company! Wow!

– John Lewellyn, CEO, Boonville Natural Gas

My primary goal in working with Donna was to create and implement a strategy. She was creative in her approach to match my skills and increase them where needed. Donna is a great cheerleader and coach, and ultimately changed not only my work life and career, but I was able to apply a lot of it to my personal life as well. I introduce her as “My Muse”.

– Damian W., Director of Merchandise and Sales, National Retail Headquarters

Thank you for helping me grow as a business leader during the last 6 months. Not only have you helped me with tools and techniques to understand and conquer my blind spots, you also opened my eyes to action items I need to work on and be prepared for whatever my next steps would be.

Many times during our time together I experienced “a light bulb going off” and I could see things clearly. Everything made sense after those moments. Your coaching has helped me be more organized, more focused and more aware. I feel I’m better prepared to deal with conflict and negativity when getting feedback from my colleagues while also nurturing those relationships to gain trust. Who knows what the future holds for me but I can assure you I will reach out to you periodically for advice and encouragement. Thank you for opening my eyes to what it takes to grow as a leader!

– Bob M., Senior Vice President, Global Construction Company

It was a pleasure working with Donna to coach one of my employees. I appreciated her approach of obtaining feedback from multiple co-workers to really get a feel for the coaching assignment required. I also appreciated her open, honest conversations during this assignment to make sure the individual truly understood the feedback. Checking in with the various co-workers throughout this process also allowed real time feedback on the individual’s progress and commitment. I truly enjoyed working with Donna through this process and look forward to partnering together soon on other coaching opportunities.

– Greg P., Executive Vice President and General Manager, Global Construction Company

It was wonderful meeting you and learning from you at the conference in Keystone, Colorado last week. I’m excited to bring back some tools to my team at Corporate and our operating locations. Your workshops were hands down the greatest I’ve participated in at any conference.

– Michele Martinson Flores, Marketing Manager, All Aboard America! Holdings, Inc.

Donna helped me change the conversation. Her insights and engagement helped me step out of my box, ask better questions and find better answers. Every antidote is filled with her rich experience and wisdom and it is amazing how easily she relates to the entire audience.

– John Byers, Vice President, Lockton Companies, Inc.

Donna worked with us in advance to ensure her topics applied to our entire audience. And the result was wonderful – we got comments for many days about how engaging and fun Donna was, the great information everyone received that made change seem easier, and how excited they were about using those tools after the conference.

– Robin Phillips, Executive Director, National RTAP Companies, Inc.

Donna “over delivered” again! She gave us big picture strategies AND “do-this-now” tactics that were tailored to our audience. I am still getting comments about how great the session was and we plan to have her speak at our next event.
