For several years we have been using the Task Quotient (TQ) Assessment, designed by Dr. Gazzara. A recent success story involved a discovery using TQ that identified a dissatisfied and misplaced in a service  manager who thrived on Project and Routine Work and was demotivated by Trouble-Shooting work. Based on his TQ profile we were able to move him into a sales related position where today he is highly engaged and has excelled for the company. Other assessments allowed us to get the right people for the company, the TQ assessment helped us preserve our investment by properly placing and retaining them.

Kevin Gazzara presented to 30 members of the Cleantech Open’s organizing committee at an event in Phoenix. We were thoroughly impressed by his friendly, straightforward, practical approach and clear, compelling presentation style. The content was amazing: eye-opening, thoughtful, and engaging. We’ll have no hesitation inviting Kevin back to future events – we’re all more than keen to discover more of his insights about building and managing great teams.

Magna Leadership Solutions is an amazing resource that helped to streamline several areas of my operations. They were instrumental in increasing our productivity through their TQ techniques. Their ability to map behaviors into an operational model that propels the organization forward is invaluable. Magna has stepped into more than one situation where the complexity of our environment needed help; they were not only able to analyze our model but made several recommendations that increased our productivity and employee retention! I have known Kevin and Magna for more than 10 years and I would highly recommend them. As a business partner, the Magna team operates with uncompromising integrity.

Speaker Testimonial: Kevin is an engaging speaker who is able to tailor his material to what is most critical to his audience. He is especially good at relating to the highly technical engineering functions and pulling them into the usefulness of skills/tools that they wouldn’t normally approach. His active learning approach is excellent at helping his audience apply their learning real-time, and retain it once back in the “real world.”

Kevin was a facilitator during First Line Manager training for Intel. I can’t imagine a better person to guide us through the FLM process! Kevin watched us tackle different exercises and interjected himself when we needed some gentle pushing. I was only with Kevin for five days during the FLM training, but will never forget his encouragement and ‘role modeling’ behavior.

Magna Leadership has an excellent understanding of the industry and having been managers, their team understands the day to day challenges. If you’ve got OD issues and needs, Magna offers a very broad tool kit that can help a company in a lot of different ways. They delivered a well run program, and on what they said they would deliver on. Experience is what the Magna team brings to the game, which is a big differentiator. Leadership development is becoming more and more critical, the firms that can figure out new ways to develop those leaders are the ones that will have a strategic advantage. Magna brings different innovative thinking to the process. As an organization we have a much stronger bench strength to move people around.

Speaker Testimonial: Kevin is dynamic in both content and delivery. His authenticity is evident, driven by his wealth of experience and research. Practical and transformational!

Speaker Testimonial: Kevin brings about a fresh new approach to leadership principles and has the ability to communicate those principles in a common sense manner, allowing individuals to relate to their own environment.
