Jim has been an important part of regular strategic planning and the goal setting process at R. L. Polk & Co. He has provided us with structure, challenge and insight while maintaining accountability across the senior management of our company. Working with Jim is not for the faint hearted, as he is willing to ask the tough questions. I can heartily recommend Jim for your business strategy and planning efforts.

Jim provides extraordinary value by bringing new ideas and perspectives to the strategic planning process. He is phenomenal at gaining alignment, identifying opportunities for improvement and creating accountability for success. Jim does an incredible job preparing participants for meetings and he is extremely results oriented. Our entire team found The Execution Maximizer process an exceptionally beneficial tool to help gain clarity and a shared sense of purpose.

Jim Alampi has worked with our Corporate and divisions operations teams for about two years. We found him particularly adept in helping us deal with complex issues surrounding our growth plans. He brought clarity and focus to our discussions surrounding leadership development and our rebranding. Jim’s experience helped us move forward at a faster pace that we would have achieved on our own.

We are a 105 year old company and never have established core values, a mission statement or defined our purpose. Jim Alampi’s The Execution Roadmap made it feasible and paved the way for our company to establish those key items for a company’s foundation. We have never felt more passionate about our core values, mission statement and purpose. It was a great team building exercise for our company. Thank you Jim for making this feasible.

At Sanimax we operate in a segment of the Agriculture industry that is down to earth and practical. A lot of what we do is instinctual and historically has been based on a stable business model. However, these old paradigms are changing in our industry and new challenges have emerged for Sanimax.

Jim has enabled us to see our current ways of doing things and has taken us through The Execution Maximizer process of discovery as a company. We are now developing a more proactive approach to our strategic opportunities and getting ahead of the challenges we face. Jim makes us think about our traditional business in new ways that has allowed us to modernize our company. Jim’s approach is straightforward and fits well with our entrepreneurial mindset at Sanimax. As a seasoned business leader Jim has brought us a perfect blend of Corporate leadership and entrepreneurial spirit. Jim is able to relate to our senior team in ways that go well beyond a pure facilitator role. In many ways, we feel Jim is an extension of our Executive Leadership Team at Sanimax. It is a fine line but he manages it very well. We are lucky to have you on the team Jim – thanks.

Great job Jim. This was our third strategic planning meeting with you and again I was impressed by how much you understand our company — both strengths and weaknesses. What was most impressive was your observation of our company mantra. You recognized the fact that service is more important to us than our product. Sounds simple, but I do not know any other residential builder who considers themselves a service company rather than a home builder. It will make our communication to our team members much easier.

With our new tag line– “Cool homes, Awesome service” our company will be focused on how we will operate in the future. Your observation will make a huge difference in our future.

Thanks for truly understanding our company rather than simply following a predetermined script as we have seen from other consultants.
