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.
Testimonials
Tony Galasso, President and COO of Sanimax Industries
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.
Dwight Sandlin, CEO Signature Homes
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.
Warren Heffelfinger, CEO GoGrid
Having just taken over as CEO, it was extremely important to get this first planning session right. Jim’s rare combination of street smarts and practical experience lends credibility to his words, but even more impressive is his innate ability to facilitate a discussion to its logical and optimal conclusion. Our offsite was very successful and we are big believers in Jim’s methods.
Jack Witwer, CEO Kalas Manufacturing
Jim has a proven formula for integrating the framework of The Execution Roadmap with guided strategic sessions that challenge the thinking of our executive team, while also building a spirit of collaborative teamwork.
His facilitation style enables us to explore key discussion points in depth where needed, while also demonstrating the ability to reign in the discussion of the group to maintain our focus. He has an effective ability to integrate real life examples to demonstrate the application of business concepts, and consistently delivers the agreed upon agenda complete on-time, on-schedule and with the intended business results.
With his help, we have been able to increase our focus on the few key initiatives critical to our success, and align our organization not only to achieve our goals, but to sustain them.
