What some of them had to say...

“Richard Casavant is one of the best professional development instructors and teambuilding facilitators that I have met.  His communication style fosters trust and openness.  He is passionate about training and delivers every class with high energy, interesting material, and an interactive approach that keeps participants engaged.  His courses embody the philosophy of improving by being "honest in the moment" and becoming empowered to affect change.  The impact Richard has had on this organization and particularly our department (Operations) is profound. “
Sanchita B. Jimenez
Director of Operations, Bombardier Total Transit Systems (BTTS)

"Any company wishing to take their operation to a new level of employee commitment and customer satisfaction will be well served in contacting the Casavant Consulting Group."
Dan Hylton
Manager of Golf, Foothills Parks and Recreation District

"Our management team could not have made the strides it has over the last two years if not for the Casavant Consulting Group."
Bill Miller
Human Resource Director, Sol Vista Golf and Ski Resort

"Evaluations conducted 30 to 90 days down the road find that the information is retained; behavior changes have occurred; and productivity, performance and morale have increased."
Bonnie Stewart
Learning Center, United States Department of Labor

"[Richard] not only smashed this perceptual barrier (the objective), but in the process re-motivated several seasoned sales directors to a level they themselves stated they had not felt in years. The same impact was recorded again a week later in our GM's meeting."
Roger King
Vice President of Marketing, Village Resorts, Inc.

"Using a series of relationship building programs and team building exercises, Richard Casavant challenged us to look at our Association and our business relationships in a new light. SkiTops began to move forward that weekend as a cooperative rather than combative entity. We have never looked back... It is fair to say that SkiTops would not have evolved to this higher, more effective organization had it not been for the facilitation skills, lively tempo and good natured, on target style of Richard Casavant."
David Tanner
President, Ski Tour Operators Association (SkiTops)

"I have high regard for Richard's knowledgebase as well as his grasp of the dynamics of human and organizational behavior. He has a gift for helping participants transfer head knowledge into practical application. He is at home with frontline workers and executives... In addition to his subject matter expertise, he has an ability to quickly establish trust with organizational sponsors as well as participants. He listens well and is, therefore, able to target all stakeholder needs... St. Petersburg College Corporate Training appreciates the contributions he makes to our program and, through us, to our business community. "
Marcia Glubiak
Curriculum Designer, St. Petersburg College Corporate Training Center
 
"You played the room perfectly. I have never seen anybody identify, isolate and "play with" serious conflicts and dysfunctions as well as you did. Your energy and enthusiasm was infectious and you injected humor at just the right places. By coincidence I had spoken with one of the participants immediately before the session, and that person was extremely cynical and pessimistic about the prospect of "learning to be a team". I could tell by that person's participation that you addressed many of his issues and he got to say a lot of things that I'm sure he didn't expect to say. It was masterful! "
Doug Turner
Contracts Manager, BCIT
