A Few Kind Words from Some Folks
“The fastest way to get results from people. I highly recommend it.”
M. Watkins – Training Manager
“When the PEOPLE Model was explained to me, I fell in love with its simplicity and effectiveness. This is certainly the way forward.”
Mike Chantel – Executive Coach
"We use the PEOPLE Model™ to help companies identify what 'great' looks like for them. Recently we worked with Ontelaunee Energy Center to first define its goals through a Business Action Planning workshop. The next step was a self-diagnostic process to identify what training they needed to meet those goals.
We helped them define what a great operations department looks like at Ontelaunee. We then we provided training in Process Mapping so that they could describe their current practices before suggesting new processes to become more efficient.
Why didn't we just offer a training program? Because before you can know you're providing the right training, you have to define what you want to achieve with that training. In other words, what does 'great' look like for your company, your department, for an employee in that department? And that's what 'great' looks like for RACC; helping our clients find the right solution to their training needs."
John M. DeVere - Dean of Workforce and Economic Development, Schmidt Training and Technology Center at Reading Area Community College
"Like many new coaches, I came out of my certification program with a lot of great knowledge and a ton of enthusiasm. What I quickly discovered, however, was that while I had all of the people skills necessary to be a coach, I lacked a structured and organized way of coaching - a real framework to take my clients through that would bring about the best results for them.
While searching for a solution I discovered The PEOPLE Academy and their resources. The online tutorials are invaluable, providing additional explanations and insights into how to approach different subjects, and The PEOPLE Model™ Framework was the structure I needed. It has given me the added confidence I was looking for and is helping me to gain more business as a result."
Deb Britt - PEOPLE Model™ Practitioner
“The PEOPLE Model fine tunes the natural talent of the life coach so that the coach now gets the full picture of what the client wants their life to be. As a coaching support system, it provides the Coach with a powerful visual framework with which to work, linking any conversation or exercise to at least one element of the PEOPLE Model™ Framework.
The system provides structure to the coaching sessions, making coaching more practical. As the Founder of Comprehensive Coaching U and The Coaching Institute, I have never partnered with any other organization because I had yet to find one upholding the same values. That changed when I saw first hand the value of The PEOPLE Model™.
Terri Levine – CEO Comprehensive Coaching U, Speaker and Best Selling Author
“Well organized material that made us think more deeply about taking responsibility for our own actions and improving the way we relate to others with better results for all.”
Learning and Skills Council
"Before adopting The PEOPLE Academy system, our management staff was a bit disconnected and each member moved in a different strategic direction. Using the PEOPLE Model™, our facilitator helped us identify the barriers that prevented us from working together to achieve our business goals.
Since the inception of The PEOPLE Model™, our management team has continually worked on breaking down the barriers to success, and I can see an improvement in the level of respect, trust and understanding between the management members."
Audra Donato - Human Resources Manager, MISCO Products Corporation
"Using The PEOPLE Model™ Framework to determine 'What does great look like' and the Business Action Planning workshop resulted in an immediate, positive impact on our leadership team which will continue to guide us in assessing and attaining our goals. Definitely time well spent - thank you so much!"
Elayne Hummel - Manager of Employee Relations, Elite Sportswear, L.P.
"I have spent over 30 years in industry working with Malcolm Baldridge, QS, ISO, and TS standards and approaches to continuous improvement, and I can say without hesitation that the PEOPLE Model™ is more robust and reaches more layers in an organization, faster, than any of the others. It is easier to implement the tool set of The PEOPLE Model™ and to gather data that leads to training plans and results.
The most important part of this tool is that you are listening to the voice of the customer first hand in an active and open setting. This direct communication and insight from the workforce is extremely valuable to your client's organization for planning and the next steps to reach their goals. Most sessions take just a few hours compared to days or weeks with the other approaches. The other benefit is that The PEOPLE Model is applicable to any industry, business, or academia environment."
Ron Tomasello - Business Consultant
"Exceeded expectations! A really good product that brings together many tools and suggested ways of working into one place. I haven't come across this before."
Michaela Partridge - PEOPLE Model Practitioner
"The PEOPLE Model™ is revolutionary. It will make life easier as an HR professional but will also allow us to create a more focused, happier team."
Ann Wilkes - HR Director
