Testimonials

"Both of my Farr workshops, IEDW (1996) and GEDW (2004), were eye-opening career experiences as well as personally enriching.  It was entirely about building, developing and applying more effective leadership skills; not just in terms of the more commonly thought of team model but self-leadership as well...  Better self-awareness has led me to more effective decisions and responses based on valid, purposeful objectives versus emotion or pre-programmed thinking.  Consequently I am able to be more aware of the moment and adapt my leadership style accordingly.  

The Farr workshops are much more than “motivational seminars”.  Farr is indeed a profound and inspiring experience for anyone truly interested in effective personal and professional leadership development." 
- Rob Turner, SCO, BB&T

 

"Jim, I just wanted to tell you, that the success of your program over at the Greentree Falls plant has been phenomenal.  And I really do give you and Farr a great deal of the credit for this.  Because Harry, as you know, did not have that situation under control, but now I would really have to say that today he is far and away one of our best Plant Managers and that plant is far and away our best performing plant today."

 
- The Greentree Falls plant had just been named Most Profitable Plant and Most Improved Plant for the most recent quarter.

- Through a combination of waste reduction and productivity improvement, they had realized $5.4 million lower cost this fiscal year compared with a year earlier, for comparable production volumes.

- John Shaw, Senior Manufacturing VP at Textiles, Inc.

"The tools and insights I've picked up from Farr Associates have been incredibly valuable to me and my organization.  Farr's program was a unique opportunity to reflect and focus on what will create the most leverage in my life and business.  That is why I've sent 10 of my colleagues, and plan to send my entire management team, and will follow up with work onsite.  For a busy executive this program is time very well spent...even if you have to travel 3,000 miles to get there."  Brian Frenzel, CEO, Centaur Pharmaceuticals
