“We recently held a combination business meeting and training session with TLDG.  It was a perfect complement to our strategic plan for 2013 to include the leadership training from TLDG into crafting our 2013 business execution plan.  The instruction was fabulous, the venue of the historic Thayer Hotel and the business lessons that we experienced both in the classroom and on the Staff Ride were exactly what my team and I were looking for to begin what is sure to be a fabulous year!  Based on this experience we are looking to bring another layer of leaders to the Thayer Hotel for leadership training.”

We spent two days at West Point learning about leadership and culture – our experience was nothing short of fantastic. The faculty provided an enlightening session on executive leadership and his experience with Fortune 500 companies was quite evident; the Boot Camp provided a fun but challenging, and definitely memorable, experience; and, all of the staff at the Thayer were terrific for their attention to detail and warm hospitality.

Thank you on behalf of P&G’s leadership team for an absolutely terrific experience.  The concepts, tools and rich dialogue that you brought to our team have inspired us and stretched our thinking as we look for new approaches to how we grow and develop leaders at P&G.  The time that you took upfront to understand our challenges and work with us to build a customized program is what made it so special.  There are many insights that came from the session, which we will take forward.  Thanks for sparking a whole new dimension of discussion and ideas.

I cannot tell you enough how much I support the leader development program. The lessons we got last week fully grounded in the latest leadership research and combat tested are lessons not only relevant but desperately needed in corporate America!  Values based leadership...it is sorely lacking and in my opinion only one institution can credibly deliver that message.

Besides the excellent service, professional staff and great venue of the Thayer Hotel, we were able to understand and internalize the values, capabilities and passion it takes to lead in the 21st Century.  The YPO group comes from various backgrounds and experiences but all came away challenged to be better leaders within their respective companies. The original purpose of YPO-to help its members become better presidents through education and idea exchange, was clearly fulfilled during our Thayer experience.  Job well done.

I can’t tell you how many positive remarks I received from every member of the group including one who said, “This was the best leadership training I’ve received in my entire career at P&G”. Given the length of service in the group, this really says something! From the great kick-off of the Staff Ride to the grounding of the leadership philosophy of West Point to great reviews on personal leadership, trust, and diversity and lessons on taking better care of ourselves, each module hit the mark. And as I’m sure you’ve heard so many times before, your personal experiences really brought the lessons to life and what’s more, your helping us translate those lessons to the P&G world really made the learning relevant   to all of us. So again, thank you SO much for investing your time in us. It will pay great dividends for our organization for many years to come.

The training and development conducted by the Thayer Leader Development Group was truly outstanding.  We held a two day session for several executives in our company, and all of us came away energized by what we learned and ready to take on the next leadership challenge.  The topics taught were impactful, and the instructors were inspiring.  I highly recommend this program for anyone looking to invest in the leadership development of their team.

Thank you for the truly outstanding experience you provided our P&G leaders at West Point.
