The most useful five days I’ve ever invested in my life and career. I can only talk of The Human Element in superlatives. It was a fantastic experience.  Anthony Villasenor, Computer Systems Manager NASA Headquarters    

Here’s my 2 cents! “If everyone at NASA could take the Human Element, we would quickly create a human partnership with deep ongoing conversations and, thereby, shift our culture faster than any “intervention” by outside consultants.”  I believe that!  Willa 

It is unbelievable to actually witness a person change before your eyes after attending the Human Element course.  Its in-depth and interactive course objectives are so compelling that it leaves you with a lasting effect for life.  This class will give you the opportunity to rediscover what is inside of you and also to re-evaluate and look at the goals and opportunities that you want to achieve/work toward in the future. You will discover the roadblocks and walls that are keeping you from being all that you can and have the potential to be.  Leslie Kelley NASA Collections/Cost Accounting

I truly feel that The Human Element was probably the most beneficial class to me from a personal development standpoint that I have ever taken.  The week long course forced you to take a real introspective look at yourself and how to best interact with others in order that a more open productive environment in the work place can be created.  The Human Element presents a very unique environment where all these things can take place.  If you want to take a course that will leave a life long impression with you that you can always reflect on then this is the course for you.  Sean Black NASA Test Director

University of S California USC Free of the simplistic gimmickry of so many of the current training fads, Schutz’s The Human Element manages for the first time to introduce the significant, key dimensions that will make the greatest difference in effective operations of all organizations. A true breakthrough.    Warren Bennis, Author and Ph.D., Distinguished Professor, University of Southern California

I find the Human Element one of the few approaches courageous enough to deal with the feelings of human beings and to recognize their centrality in improving the social weal.  John Vasconcellos, Assemblyman, Chairman, Ways and Means Committee California Legislature

Among hospital staff over two years we found an increase of 37% of employees reporting they were highly productive; high morale self-rating was increased by 44% and there was an increase of 64% of employees reporting more open and honest communication. Fran Ulschak PhD, Research Director Mercy Health Center, Dubuque Iowa

The Human Element training has been the catalyst for the turnaround of the plant in productivity and profit. In less than two years…sales have increased 25% and the workforce required to produce the product decreased 25%.  Hank Young, Franklin Plant Manager Whitley Products, Inc.

Your company is an amazing creation. You started with a scientific approach that was far outside the mainstream…You introduce levels of honesty and integrity that had never before been seen in American management. I have consulted with many major corporations, most involved in long series of management fads, year after years. You have never been a fad. You have been outside the fickle mainstream and built a loyal client based and a thriving business.”  Michael Phillips, Author and Founder of MasterCard 

The Human Element approach has been the center of our new leadership development program and we have been profoundly pleased with the results.  Having reviewed countless leadership development programs, (we believe) this is the one that delivers. Michael Rossiter,O.D.,V.P.,Seagram Sprits & Wine Group

 The Human Element was a powerful learning experience for me. It helped me understand myself, and my behavior, in ways that other learning and development programs can only hint at. It took me to a deeper understanding of my own potential and got me thinking about how my conscious and unconscious choices contribute to, or impede, my development. The Human Element helped me get my priorities straight and got me focused on living a more authentic and satisfying life.  Robert M. Anderson, Ed.D. President, McDonald Anderson

Blaise Pascal, an existential philosopher, once said, “The hardest job we have to do in life is live in our own room.”  The Human Element is foundational to this practice; sometimes words and concepts that at face value seem simple, yet in the practice, they unlock some very profound material.  Thank you!  Anne Perry

Your workshop was incredibly facilitative for me – absolutely life changing.  I am free now to live with greater integrity – and it feels good.  Ed Hampton, Cornerstone course, March 2010 ceo@nullperformanceperspectives.com

Pär Larshans, Director of Sustainability  Max Hamburgers

Most enlightening. Recommended for anyone who wants to create their own changes and improve relationships of any kind.  Deanna Larson  Sprint
