In the Words of Our Clients:

“Our conference attendees couldn’t stop talking about how impressed they were with your presentation. Your insights into the Disney principles and use of relevant stories from other organizations set the tone for the 2 days of conference sessions that followed. I knew your message of providing legendary customer service would resonate well with our leaders but even more powerful seemed to be your message of creating an environment where front line employees feel empowered and are challenged to provide constant process/service improvement. Many of our leaders felt this was the next logical step in furthering our culture of “Loving-Kindness.” Our leadership team is now poised to Dream, Believe, Dare and Do!  You certainly worked your magic.  I couldn’t have asked for a better keynote speaker or inspiring message!”

“Bill Capodagli led a representative steering committee who developed the Ottawa County customer service story and vision. He then facilitated lively and informative sessions with ninety thoughtfully chosen County influencers who used Storyboarding to develop customer service action plans and codes of conduct. Follow-up work will focus on training the remaining County employees and incorporating the customer service vision into the orientation of new personnel. Along with providing a framework for customer service, the sessions broke down the silos that naturally develop between divisions and enhanced the sense of camaraderie in Ottawa County. The results were nothing short of AMAZING!”
