Testimonials

Thank you for the great two days with our Branch Manager team. Your enthusiasm and energy was amazing. The sales training that you provided has proven to be invaluable to our team. Post session we have definitely seen an increase in our sales focus which is clearly reflected in our overall numbers and referrals to our business partners. Thank you Lydia, we will definitely be looking at incorporating you into our annual sales conference in 2010.

I have attended many Leadership events/courses in the past but with Peak Performance I felt it reflected the day to day life in a branch. I walked away with a treasure chest of tools to motivate and encourage a true sales focused environment. One of the areas I struggled with in the past was how to conduct powerful sales meetings, with your help I now have a number of templates to create a fun yet focused way to strengthen our member relationships.

At our 2008 Strategic Retreat we were asking our Board to go beyond the traditional net income, quality service, and growth goals to imagine how Verity Credit Union could become an integral part of the communities we serve. Lydia quickly transformed skepticism into excitement and uncertainty into conviction. I look forward to the next time we will work with Lydia.

John Zmolek, Executive Vice President
Verity Credit Union
Thanks again for leading our 2008 Board Planning Retreat. Your presentations and interactive sessions were extremely well received by board members and staff alike and were right on target with my expectations for a weekend themed “innovation.” You very effectively challenged traditional thought in introducing concepts, as well as products and services that by their nature are differentiators because of their uniqueness. Market differentiation through innovation is a most appealing idea and your innovation structure is an approach that I believe could potentially benefit most companies.It was obvious from your enthusiasm that you are passionate about credit unions and our potential for even greater success. We all left the retreat feeling mentally energized and excited about the future. I look forward to working with you again.

I’m only 18 and I don’t know much about any of this. I’m known to be rather negative but you have changed that. You are making a difference. You changed my life in just 3 hours. You’re going to do great things.
