What People Are Saying About QuintEssential Performance™
"The QuintEssential Performance™ Model was absolutely right on target. By applying the model we're doing all the right things at all levels to achieve organizational success. Further, it gave me a framework for thinking through my strategic plan and driving it throughout the organization."
Laurie Brunner, Senior Vice President
ESI International
"QuintEssential Performance provides an immediate boost to the organization. The program breaks down interpersonal barriers and cuts to the heart of what needs attention here at our company."
Paul Farrell, CEO

"QuintEssential Performance is relevant to the day-to-day management of people. It's right on the money! Management has to recognize its role in employees' success and QuintEssential Performance does just that!"

WILLCARE
"QuintEssential Performance actually caused me to change my behavior. The process and approach enabled me to see my own organization (and my own leadership performance) in a new way. It helped me connect the dots between my behavior, performance, and achieving our business goals."
Mitch Litrofsky, CEO
The Breakthrough Group
"Early on in the process it became evident that we would be diving into issues that were previously considered too personal or challenging. The program's systematic approach walked us through troubling issues and identified workable actions to fill the gaps. With the aid of the QuintEssential Performance Model, we find ourselves communicating much more effectively and are able to correct subtle disconnects in people performance, as they are encountered. I recommend the program to any business looking to improve their people performance and highly recommend it to any business that thinks that they are doing a good job with people performance. The results are eye opening."
Christopher Lanski, President
Excelco Developments, Inc.
"The QuintEssential Performance Model does a great job looking at the whole company's impact on a person's performance. The management team at the James J. Hill Reference Library has been using the model for six months. We have been able to identify 'roadblocks' in our internal structure which made top performance difficult. By removing the roadblocks, the employees are improving their performance.
As an adjunct professor, I teach various human resource classes and have seen or experimented with many performance tools. The QuintEssential Performance Model is easy to use, even for non-human resource professionals, and more importantly, is effective. The QuintEssential Performance Model is an exceptional tool."

"I cannot begin to tell you how much your seminar has helped my organization. The session you presented on 'Building QuintEssential Performance' made my employee problems crystal clear. By the end of the seminar, I knew exactly what I had to do to make my problems go away. I want you to know as long as I am in business, I will continue to use the principles you have taught me. I do not know how to thank you; however, please know that I will always be at your service and if you ever need any help from me, do not hesitate to call me at any time."

What People Are Saying About the Performance Generator™
“In the day-to-day routine, you don't have the chance for the kind of dialogue that really creates understanding. The Performance Generator™ allowed me to present my criticisms in a constructive manner. Because the system gave the employee a voice and showed respect for her and what she is trying to do, she was far more receptive to what I had to say. The process created a clarity of direction for the employee and increased my understanding of what it takes for her to do her job well.”
Tom Johel, President & COO
U*C Coatings
“As a result of participating in the Performance Generator™, communication between me and my manager improved a great deal. It helped me know exactly what was expected of me and was a great way for me to learn my new position. Several months passed between answering the audit questions and discussing them [Coaching Process]. I thought that would be a problem. Actually it worked out fine. By the time we discussed our responses, I was able to look back to certain situations and learn how to handle them more effectively. It’s been about 5 months since we finished the Performance Generator™ and our communication continues to grow and improve. The Performance Generator™ really helped me!”
Zahara Bulluck, Warehouse Coordinator
U*C Coatings
“I love the Performance Generator! The Generator is not a one-time evaluation tool. It promotes ongoing communication between a manager and their administrator or director. We often ask our managers to write an "Employee Work Improvement Plan," but we only do so for employees that are not making it. The Generator is a work improvement plan for everyone – underperformer to star.
The application has a built-in Action Plan which helped us track our progress and see how much we had accomplished. In dealing with everyday pressures and challenges, it is so easy to feel like you are not getting anywhere. WE ARE! And the Performance Generator has kept me on task.”
Melissa M. Peterson, PHR, HR Coordinator
WILLCARE
“Performance Generator™ is a good tool to ensure that the strategic direction of an organization is implemented down to the individual contributor level. It reinforced many areas that we are already doing well in. It also helped us clarify areas that may be changing as we adopt a new strategic plan.”
Courtney J. Walsh, Assistant Dean
Center for Executive Development, The University at Buffalo

“Performance Generator™ caused us to engage in conversations that we otherwise wouldn’t have had. Even though we thought we were in synch before we started the process, the Performance Generator made us both aware of things we weren’t dealing with. The application helped us develop an action plan, and we will be addressing those issues together.”
Karen Manning, President and CEO
American Government Services Corporation
"Traditional yearly performance evaluations don't have a lot of substance to them. They typically provide only one side of the story - the manager's - and often end up with a lot of surprises and discontent. Performance Generator™ created meaningful dialogue in both directions - employee to manager and manager to employee. It made sure we talked about the most important things that could be impacting the employee's performance. In my opinion, Performance Generator™ is an effective tool to develop employees and help them realize their full potential."

"The Performance Generator™ is a great tool! It challenged me to really think. Having the employee complete the same tool and then compare responses in a structured way was very powerful. The employee and I discovered areas where we were philosophically in the same place, but our behavior was inconsistent. Now, we've begun doing things differently."
Karen A. Christie
Senior Vice President, Strategy & Organizational Development
United Way of Buffalo and Erie County
“The Performance Generator™ started a dialogue on topics that are not typically discussed between employees and managers. The tool gave me a platform to discuss aspects of my position that I was having difficulty with in a non-confrontational atmosphere.
The online tool was so easy to use and convenient. I was able to use it when it worked with my schedule and could go back to it if something came up during the process.”

"Performance Generator was very easy to use. It asked us direct questions and forced us to think about and talk about things that we might otherwise tend to ignore. The process made sure that I saw my employee's points and he saw mine. The dialogue was very valuable in strengthening our relationship and mutual understanding."
