Our Clients Use Flawless Execution Methods to Remain on TopAfterburner Clients

"In early 2003 Honeywell brought Afterburner Inc.'s proprietary Flawless Execution℠ methods to help turn around a failing Building Solutions Group. Prior to 2003 this group was consistently averaging double digit negative comparable growth versus the market's +4%. Following its work with Afterburner, that same group has experienced double-digit growth year in and year out! Even in a very challenging market in 2008, Honeywell's Building Solutions Group outstripped the competition 3 to 1. We continue to use the Flawless Execution Model℠ to drive growth and even in this very difficult environment it is our expectations we will continue this double digit growth trend in 2009."

Kevin Madden, Vice President of Global Sales, Honeywell Building Solutions

"Seriously, thank you for making a significant impact on our team and changing the way we plan, execute, and de-brief. We are well on our way to building a culture where both our people and our customers will benefit."

Eli Lilly

"Two years ago we began working with Afterburner as a sales and marketing and education team in the Gastro-Uro business. The business impact that Afterburner has had has improved leadership competency, communication, results, and an increase in empowering others"

Medtronic

"I'm happy to report we've already begun to see a return on our investment. People throughout the organization are not only talking about the need to debrief more often, they're actually doing it."

General Electric

"During the Afterburner Planning Workshop, your leadership will accelerate our success as we head into the new fiscal year...Afterburner is an outstanding program to help focus a diverse team around a common objective and drive towards a plan of attack that everyone agrees with. It helped focus on a specific goal, which is the hardest part in the planning process."

Cisco Systems

"The first month following our Planning Workshop, we had the largest sales month in our history thanks to Afterburner."

Corporate Express

"Your follow-up team building workshops with the Sales Force, in each State, have ensured that many of the lessons learned from the Flawless Execution Model℠ are currently being transferred to the day to day work of our Sales Force."

Pfizer

"Plan, Execute, and Debrief are terms we hear around the office now. I feel we have built a great working relationship and I look forward to our next project together."

Sprint

"Your Debriefing Workshop was the best and most effective training activity that we conducted for our key managers in the past five years..."

Sara Lee

"We now understand what we are up against, the pit falls and how to attack it and make it become a reality in all of our stores...thank you for your assistance and direction in making this happen!"

Verizon Wireless

"I learned many techniques that I will use in the years to come...The hands-on aspect helped drive the learning points home. I believe that this type of learning will help our organization be much more competitive and better able to meet the needs of our patients."

Kaiser Permanente

"Our attendees were definitely equipped with new strategies and tactics to improve team work, thwart channelizing and minimize task saturation in the work place. You are definitely a hit with the American Red Cross and we truly appreciated your interest in learning as much as you could about the particular challenges faced by Red Cross fund raisers."

American Red Cross

"The Afterburner team obviously spent an incredible amount of prep time getting to know our business and our competition. This enabled them to walk in speaking our language, which earned instant credibility with our senior leadership team. It opened the door to some great discussion around improving how we work together - the result of which has already made us a more effective team."

Bank of America

"The Afterburner High Performing Team programme was a complete success. The initiatives designed during the programme have made positive changes to the way we work together."

Credit Suisse

"I have been to many "training events" in my career, but I would rate yours as the highest. Not only did you give us a great experience, but also many tools that could be incorporated and truly impact the organization."
