So, when it came time to schedule our planning meeting for this year it wasn’t even a question that we would employ Dianna. I was very interested to see how we would approach the process this year (how could it top last year?!). Well, Dianna did it again. She has a knack of leading us through critical issues of the organization and how to tie HR initiatives to those business issues. I would even go as so far to say the flow of the meetings were even smoother this year. We have two new managers on our team this year. They were both extremely impressed. One indicating that she had no idea this much effort could go into planning and strategizing. The other commented that Dianna made it such a safe and open environment that even being new to the group this manager had no concerns about contributing to the sessions. I am sure many of you can relate that sometimes when you participate in planning sessions you feel they can be monotonous, boring and not impactful. These meeting turned out to be very interactive, enlightening, fun and productive. I would highly recommend Dianna and The Pendolino Group to anyone wanting to take their HR planning process to another level!

We worked with Ascent Media Group (AMG) to map out their vision for transforming their Company Culture. This led to integrated Performance Management and Compensation Programs delivered through The Pendolino Group. Our aligned solutions propelled client success!

I will be a reference for you anytime. You are amazing. THANK YOU.

It has been an excellent experience working with The Pendolino Group. We received a prompt and accurate response to all our questions during the implementation process of Sonar6. We knew that we could count on The Pendolino Group as partners; their support and expertise were key elements in the success of this project.

I have heard nothing but positive feedback from the team as the training session was managed in an effective and informative manner. We all appreciated your knowledge, professionalism and willingness to jump in, answer questions, leveraging different learning techniques and set us up for success.

The vast experience that The Pendolino Group brought to the table made our CSB [formerly Sonar6] implementation process a completely different experience than I anticipated. Not only did they help with the technical aspects of things (how the system works and long-term implications of decisions), they also helped shape those decisions by helping us view things through an HR lens, which is necessary to truly fulfill the reasons for which we purchased the system in the first place. I actually look forward to our first year of doing performance management reviews in our new system!

Changing performance measurement systems is a fraught process and The Pendolino Group were excellent at structuring and pacing the transition process, guiding us through well-articulated intermediate steps through to our go live rollout.

The training The Pendolino Group delivered was targeted, fun and actionable! You can’t get better than that when asking a leadership team to set aside their time ‘off the floor’ to learn skills and develop a common language around leadership. Our employees thought this was the most valuable time they had ever spent in learning the art and science behind leadership. Bravo!

It has been a wonderful experience working with The Pendolino Group. They were easy to get along with right from the word go. They have an amazing ability to understand the customer needs and propose appropriate solutions. They are very adaptable, and at the same time set clear expectations. They have an uncanny ability to be with the client, which creates an environment of support and trust for the client to be successful.

Pendolino was a pleasure for us to work with, professional, thorough and patient with all of our questions. Changing performance measurement systems is a fraught process and they were excellent at structuring and pacing the transition process, guiding us through well articulated intermediate steps through to our go live rollout. All told the process was fairly quick and far more straight forward than we had imagined.

The leadership workshops provided by The Pendolino Group made a real impact in our Company. Our leadership team is more cohesive than ever and their practical coaching tips were based on real-world experience, not theory. Months later we continue to refer to the performance management principles we discussed, and we regularly use useful terminology we picked during our coaching sessions, giving our management team a common vocabulary to describe personnel matters with which they’re dealing. Pendolino is a winner — we’ll definitely being using them again in the future!

Bringing in The Pendolino Group was a critical part of the process for us. As an external facilitator they had a much more objective viewpoint and helped us to see our strategic vision so much more clearly.

I have had the pleasure of working with The Pendolino Group on a number of different opportunities. They build credibility very quickly, not only as subject matter experts, but from a hands-on, roll-up-your-sleeves-and-dig in perspective. Their passion shines through their work and becomes totally integrated into your business operations. Their combination of internal operator experience and consulting project war stories gives The Pendolino Group powerful vision when addressing client needs.

It was a great pleasure to work with The Pendolino Group on our CSOD [formerly Sonar6] implementation. They were competent, informative, responsible, reliable and kind. They answered every question and took care of every request quickly and with ease. Few software implementations have been this easy. I truly appreciate their professionalism and care, and highly recommend them.
