GRITT Summit Testimonial

Many times we are so caught up in day to day business we forget some real fundamental and easy things that can bring us all success. I appreciate your open business model and the welcoming approach of all your team. It is certainly something I hope to bring more of my team to as we restructure and empower leaders to better serve our customer base. Thank you once again!

GRITT Summit

I appreciated the knowledgeable team members they employed to give presentations, answer questions, and assist everyone with their needs. Seeing the team members deflect questions they did not know unto someone who could better answer them was very helpful as well. During the courses, seeing as much direct teaching, as well as open discussion to field attendees ideas was also very well done.

We wanted to thank you for your hospitality. You made us feel like VIP’s from the time we arrived to the time we left. It was a great experience and we appreciated the leadership training. We also appreciated the invitation to dinner with Shawn Burcham. That was a fun night!
