Testimonial:
As a decentralized company, we faced significant challenges in ensuring our General Managers fully understood their accountability, decision-making capacity, and leadership roles. Sonic Coaching has been instrumental in transforming our organization. Through their sessions, our General Managers gained a deeper understanding of their roles and responsibilities and were equipped with the necessary tools to excel during a time of significant change throughout the company. This empowerment directly contributed to the growth and success of our individual branches and the organization as a whole.
Oliver’s expertise was also pivotal in helping our executive team gel and build strong, effective relationships with an improved understanding of each other’s communication needs. His guidance fostered a cohesive and collaborative environment, enabling our leadership to function more effectively as an aligned team.
By addressing these concerns, we took significant steps toward improving our workplace culture. Thanks to Sonic Coaching, we are on our way to becoming an “Employer of Choice” in our industry and in the communities that we serve. We continue to work closely with them to grow and enhance our organizational excellence.
