Dan and his team did a fantastic job for our company’s annual executive meeting. He took his time to understand the culture, norms, overall strategy and purpose of Milgard. He carefully planned our team building event with input, consideration and detailed preparation. The event was a huge success. Dan’s facilitation created opportunities for our employees to interact with each other at different levels which are not necessarily generated organically from our day to day work. We ended with a better understanding of one another’s qualities and how to best leverage our individual strengths for the benefit of our overall team performance.

I was so nervous when I came to this training. Three days ago, I didn’t know any of you. Now I don’t want to leave, because now I know what it feels like to have trust, respect, transparency in a group.

What I noticed about Dan, that I haven’t seen in other professionals at his level in this field, is that he “walks his talk” by emulating the 3 C’s: conduct, competency and character...in my opinion, it is his character that has stood out for me.

Working with Challenge Applications and Dan Ashe was an unexpected win for our organization. The leadership team was charged to completely overhaul our business practices and find new ways of doing business to meet the needs of our customers. The Challenge Applications process delivered, providing us with the tools and resources needed to take this massive project on and to be successful. The training should be a requirement for any organization that is considering a transformation, leveraging processes that can ensure success.
