TESTIMONIALS FROM PAST PARTICIPANTS of MHEDA MASTER MANAGER PROGRAM

 

In my opinion, the GoalMakers program is the best course within MHEDA. We implemented the entire program in real-time at our company, every strategy and principle, step by step and it has set up for the next year at our company to be successful. – Gerardo Padilla, SEIL Rentals

In our industry, what we need to know is how to take care of the right customer, make profit, have goals, and make people accountable for what they do at their organizations, which the program checks all those boxes on. I’ve already implemented parts of the program at our company. I wanted to say thank you for helping push our company in the right direction with our goals and our goal setting. It was important, I got a lot from it, it’s all about what you put into the program. – Mike Hudak, Conveyor & Caster

I learned a ton throughout the program, probably the most important was empowering your entire team and giving wide boulevards. Already told the chief of staff at the company to put more employees into the program! I got a ton of value from it. – Jesse Collins, Alliance Material Handling

This is a very valuable training program. I plan to train all W.W. Cannon managers with this program. Great mix of networking and live sessions. The material is spot on. – Greg Brown, W.W. Cannon

I think the program overall is great. It’s very informative and knowledgeable, it helps you open up your mind to things you haven’t thought about and new perspectives. – Tony Medlen, Cranston Material Handling

It’s pretty exciting, we have our entire team using the GMT Meeting and Daily Huddles template and now managing our company progress using all the tools from the GoalMakers program. We’ve changed our goal setting model to be more in line with MHEDA Master Manager program, focusing on three goals and our end result and how it aligns with our three goals. This program is really well-done and truly valuable to anyone who can make the time to go through it. – Matt Fye, Morrison Industrial Equipment Co.
