Client Testimonials
"Beyond The Box was instrumental in helping us clarify and articulate our winning strategy so everyone in the organization understood what we were trying to accomplish. Of course, for a financial person it was music to my ears to hear everyone in the organization talking about and understanding the financial statements. The whole intervention was designed to help participants truly impact the bottom line. But even we were surprised when the first market location to go through the workshop developed and implemented an action plan that made enough money to offset the cost of the initiative.
In the first year we had every employee coast-to-coast attend the workshop (approximately 1,000 people). In subsequent years, all new employees attended. We are committed to enabling our employees to understand the business."

"In rolling out our Small Business Strategy, the bank had really put our focus on this market segment as a tremendous opportunity. However, we had a real dilemma on how to address the concerns of our branch managers in selling to small business owners. Beyond The Box really listened to what we wanted and custom designed a workshop that not only hit the mark, but was probably one of the best training sessions we have ever experienced.
Over 400 people volunteered and experienced the workshop."

"When we decided to implement the Balanced Scorecard we were faced with several communication and training sessions including what is a Balanced Scorecard, rolling out the actual reports, business and finance training and financial statements. Beyond The Box created an innovative approach that blended what we thought would be three to four days of training into a one-day session. They learned our business so well that participants assumed they had actually worked for the company.
In all, well over 1,200 manufacturing employees went through the workshop."
