“We’ve hired Sam to come speak to our leaders multiple times. Sam knows accountability and how to help an organization build their culture around accountability. Sam has a unique take on accountability that positions him to help a company transform into a better organization.” - Doug, Westar Energy Inc
"To address a request by senior leaders to assist our leadership team with accountability, I invited Sam to speak with our leaders and provided each participant with a copy of his book, No More Excuses. Sam’s presentation resonated with each of us and his powerful message motivated us to take steps to ensure we created a culture where accountability is inspired. As a result, we embarked on an effort to redefine our values and embed them into our organization. We learned from Sam that values form the foundation from which accountability is possible and with the changes we’ve implemented as a result of Sam’s advice, I’m confident that our organization is positioned to experience even greater success." - Lisa, OD Consulting Group, Moffitt Cancer Centre
