“Within my role at the Principal Financial Group, I had the opportunity to engage Wright Lookingbill on a variety of fronts, including team building, team management as well as professional coaching. Our engagement first started as an opportunity for my immediate leadership team to work more effectively together. Through the Birkman assessment we were able to better understand not only our only styles; but also how those styles collectively function as a group. As a direct result of our sessions, we not only formed a more cohesive team, but were also able to achieve more significant results.
In addition to the team building exercises, Wright Lookingbill has played an integral role in my own development. Through individual mentoring, I have been able to grow within my own personal career path. I whole-heartedly support their methodology and engagement!”
