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’s passion for helping others and for sharing his deep knowledge on many leadership topics, is evident from his enthusiasm as a speaker. The connection he makes with his audience is equally evident from the level of engagement, discussion and activity he raises during each workshop and from the number of participants who stay after to talk with him personally. Kevin is continually introducing new discoveries and key learnings from the leadership field, all backed by his own or other academic research, while still ensuring that all participants leave with practical, real-world tools that can be implemented immediately. Although I’ve sat through many of Kevin’s workshops, I learn something new each time as he is able… Read more

In planning for retreats in the for-profit or non-profit world, it is rare to find a facilitator that combines practical experience with an approachable style and the ability to capture the attention of a group. Dr. Kevin Gazzara captures these qualities and is an effective workshop leader that provided a useful and enjoyable day of learning and interaction for my law firm’s lawyers and paralegals. The interaction between the participants came easy with Kevin’s facilitation skills.  He is low-key, but very effective in getting people to engage one another. In the past, other facilitators may have generated “rolling-eyes” or other evidence of resistance from lawyer participants.  Kevin has an easy style that puts all the participan… Read more

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.”

Magna Leadership has a set of magnificent tools for larger businesses. We used the Caliber tools and did some of the music training. The Caliber assessment was very helpful for us to get peer feedback on how to improve performance. Kevin is an amazingly smart person with a great personality and has a product that is incredible. Magna Leadership Solutions is outstanding for organizations with a diverse employee base. The measurability is the real key. I can identify specific areas – not a list of 30 – so it’s realistic in what you can target on and see real, tangible improvements.

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.

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.

Speaker Testimonial: Kevin is brilliant and fun. He involves the groups with his real life examples, his non boring data and his witty activities.He makes complex situations easy to understand and he provides great solutions.

Speaker Testimonial: Kevin is a motivational speaker. His teaching style should be documented and show to other professors around the world. When you are with Kevin, you are not only learning but you are having fun. I am near my last residency and Kevin is the most influential teacher and person throughout my college career and that says a lot because I am friends with a lot of teachers. When you hear Kevin speak, learn from Kevin, and see how Kevin operates his classroom you will know that your life has changed for the better. Kevin is highly educated, classy, fun to be around, and very informative. Kevin is truly a person no one will forget.

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.
