Success Stories

“Pathways Business Course has had an immediate positive impact on our sales team. We have developed more trust and respect through effective communication, integrity, clear goals and strategies. It has enabled us to bring together different points-of-view without losing clarity or focus. Our team feels empowered by the ability to hold ourselves and each other accountable, thereby creating more in less time. Our conversations are healthier and proactive which has lead to a motivated, committed culture within our team. Our ability to drive towards our common goals has never been better.”

“Castle Farms is a world class historic property that focuses on the health and happiness of individuals, families and the community. We find that by supporting our full-time employees to attend the Pathways Courses, we are able to communicate on a level that most companies do not have the privilege. Our team members are more fulfilled and look for ways to support each other, instead of working against each other. We will even send our long-term employees with their spouses or close family members because we have found that when things are going well at home, our team is more productive on the job. We are a small company and conflict does arise, however by having the tools that Pathways Courses have provided we are able to come to agreements much quicker.”

“POWERFUL!! I remember back to Basic and Advanced and saying that these courses have the potential to transform the hearts and minds of anyone who attends. The tools I learned have made me a more conscious father, husband and friend. Most importantly, a better friend to myself!

As far as business goes, when you go to a country and don’t speak the language, how do you feel? It’s the same thing in a business environment. When everyone speaks a common language and has tools to support each other with a win-win philosophy, you can create magical results and that is exactly what the Pathways Business Courses do!”

“We began our family owned custom jewelry business almost 20 years ago. It has gone from a three person company to a 31 employee corporation. Our leadership team consists of Tom and I, and our two sons: Ches and Bret. Throughout the years we have experienced much success and have been met with some challenges. Family has and will continue to be the most important priority in our lives, and because of the structure of our business relationships must be nurtured 24-7. As the business grew, our employees have become like family. As you may have guessed, when you work with family sometimes there is conflict.

After our whole family and some employees participated in the Basic, Advanced and Leadership Courses, we realized that our business would benefit and continue to prosper if we brought in the Pathways Courses to our company.

It was an incredible experience of learning, and applying tools to our personal and professional lives that was specific to each person’s needs, experiences and interaction with co-workers. It was an opportunity to better understand our role in responding and reacting in a way that is conducive to positive communication. We found that the interactive cooperative learning environment taught us to put the lessons into action immediately. We used the tools to communicate and work through conflicts and develop relationships that were based on honesty and integrity.

Our employees and family learned how to cope and actively accept and initiate change in an organic environment. We were finally able to speak the same language and understand each other fully. The difference in our interactions and communication was immediate and continues to flourish. With most leadership courses the training ends the moment you walk out the door unlike Pathways where the support and learning continues long after. We are still very amazed that we can pick up the phone and still get wonderful support from the leaders and associates in the Pathways organization. If all corporations were to bring this learning process to their people the working world would become much more cohesive environment.

Our business is to sell memories; with Pathways we have been able to create memories!”

“The Management Basics Course engaged, challenged and empowered our entire group, which was comprised of managers at all business levels, with widely varied skillsets. We were able to identify our individual strengths, weaknesses and comfort zones, and worked collaboratively to explore strategies to lead more effectively. This multi-perspective approach gave us insight into the best way to communicate with our direct reports and peers, and gave us tools to foster a culture of trust, accountability and integrity”
