“Meet My Personal Development Coach”

Throughout my career, I always strived on my ability to engage and inspire others. I feel like after the 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth, I am even more equipped to do so. The program provided me so much more perspective into the value of growing myself while bringing along everyone around me. With the knowledge and inspiration I received from the 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth, I am now in a position where I find myself seeking to add value to the lives of others, including my own family. More importantly, I have developed better and more effective ways to interact with my kids through positive reinforcement. In the past, I would punish them for their mistakes, but now, I create an incentive for them to do the right things and it is working out amazingly well. Give Jeff Willie a call. I promise you, after a few sessions with him, you’ll develop the courage needed and be well on your way to executing your personal development.

"Great Man Theory"

he Great Man Theory professes the idea that people are born with leadership skills. But not all people are born that way and Jeff Willie helps to ignite and develop the great man within. When it comes to leadership, coaching, and developing he can help make it happen. He enabled, coached, and provided me with the tools to broaden my leadership skills. He arranged a workshop for our Church leadership team that was informative, interactive, and led to cohesiveness. The workshop was both fun and challenging but Jeff Willie’s direct feedback proved to be valuable. I can’t speak highly enough of his services that will help you become a Great Man.

"...you are such a blessing to leaders of all kinds..."

Just a few words of thanks for the outstanding training session that you performed at the Mt. Olive Church of Plano on November 15th, 2017 by Professor Jeff Willie. Our people were so delighted and encouraged from the training. You were able to keep the leaders engaged even on a Wednesday night. I hope you understand that you are such a blessing to leaders of all kinds, especially the body of Christ.

"An eye opener for me..."

I recently attended a Leadership Conference “Everything Rises and Falls on Leadership” presented by Jeff Willie. An eye opener for me was a simple statement: “Organizations are not limited by its opportunities; organizations are limited by its leaders.” Thank you, Jeff, for making this class assessable in East Texas. I look forward to attending more of your professional development workshops.

"I feel empowered!"

I highly recommend the 15 laws of growth workshop. It will definitely heighten your ability to reflect and ponder your life and show, perhaps, where you’ve grown stagnant in your personal growth and make you aware of areas that must be ignited to achieve your full, present and future commitments to your life’s  successes!! The sessions have truly awakend the dormant me that has been suppressed for years to pursue my purpose. I feel empowered!

"I am very thankful..."

Dear Professor Jeff,

I am very thankful for the blessing to have you as my leadership coach. You help me to gain new perspective in my leadership development and improve in my work relationships. Last time, after I shared some of the challenges I was facing in my work, you helped me find the words to put things in context and asked questions that led me to reconsider my approach and find strategies to adapt to the context of my situation in a more knowledgeable way. This conversation made me see another area of growth that I needed to work on: communication. I started reading one of the two books you recommended me (“Everyone communicates, few connect’ of John C Maxwell) and it’s been helpful. I am learning to be a servant leader, and add value to people I interact with one day at a time, one step at a time.

"Few people can energize a group..."

Brought Jeff Willie to speak at our annual in-service day to nearly 500 employees. Few people can energize a group of that size and average age of 58 years old! Jeff put energy into the crowd and not only gave them things to think about, but hope for their future. Those 500 employees will go forward and impact the lives of nearly 20,000 student bus riders this Monday morning!  We are off to a great start for the school year ahead and thrilled to have chosen him for this annual day long training event we hold. Highly recommended for your event!

"with 90 at-risk males ..."

I would like to extend a “hearty” thank you to Mr. Jeff Willie for his service and continual willingness to share his expertise and experience with the leaders of tomorrow! I sponsor a very unique class of high school young men and we recently were graced by Mr. Willie’s presence.  During his visit to our campus, he spoke with 90 at-risk males on the topics of leadership, resiliency and strong character.  He did what most speakers have a hard time doing with a young audience; he made the topics relevant and engaging to the students.  He used something as common knowing blood types, to help these young men focus on the mindset they MUST keep throughout all adversity….”BE POSITIVE”.

"You are not a mistake. You are meant to be here. You are a gift."

Good morning Professor Jeff

’m Ezra Hernandez, Director of Communications for A+ Charter Schools, and one of the photographers at our A+ & Inspired Vision graduation ceremonies. Firstly, let me say just how much I appreciate your being our commencement speaker this year. I have sat through many a commencement speeches for dozens and dozens of other schools (including my own graduations), couldn’t tell you what any of them were even slightly about… but yours is one I’ll be able to quote for years:

“You are not a mistake. You are meant to be here. You are a gift.”

Your understanding of what our students, and our families, need to hear, over and over, until they believe it, and then a few times more for the times they forget, was delivered in speech-perfection. Your entire speech was phenomenal, and I thank you greatly for sharing it with our scholars.

His heart touched many of our students and staff hearts

“As a high school principal, I was very proud of the messages that Jeff gave to our students. His heart touched many of our students and staff hearts and he made an impact. What impressed me the most is that he showed up at the football game and continued his conversations with student’s parents and staff. What a great human being with a great story who made a difference. Thank you Jeff for taking the time to let us hear your story, keep telling it and keep making a difference!”

Jason Harris, Principal Carthage High School Carthage, TX

We will never forget your great inspirational talk

We will never forget your great inspirational talk!! It was the best I’ve ever heard to get employees motivated to make a positive difference in the lives of our young people. God Bless You and your brothers for such a great job, Well Done!!

"Teachable Moment"

The Leadership Game was very insightful.  It provided those leaders that exhibited good servant leadership or communication traits with public recognition from their peers.  It also served as a teachable moment for those leaders that were not recognized by identifying leadership traits they may need to work on.

“What an Incredible Eye Opening Experience”

I have had the opportunity to attend the “No Limits” training class offered by Jeff Willie. What an incredibly eye opening experience. If you are looking to move to the next level of personal growth, then do yourself a favor and attend one of Jeff’s classes. He has a great ability to get you to tap into the depth of self-reflection so that you can attack your future with “No Limits!”

"Exceeded my Expectations"
Prof. Willie,

The No Limits workshop exceeded my expectations.  I’ve never participated in anything like this before and I really didn’t know what to expect.  Your thought provoking questions and insightful comments helped me to discover more about blowing the cap off of my limits than I ever thought possible.  This was a terrific launching pad for my personal growth and I look forward to continuing my journey toward excellence with you. Thanks for delivering a world class workshop!

“I needed this”

Jeff,

Your Speaker’s Club class has deeply humbled me. I have found a confidence with my voice, and my story, that I never thought was possible. This was the first step and the nudge I needed to get out of my comfort zone and begin to take action towards the life I want to create for myself. I know that in the near future I will secure my first public speaking gig and I’ll have the opportunity to make a true difference in someone’s life because of it. I thank you for your kindness, your genuine care, and your support - I am a better person for it.

"Powerful Growth"

Jeff,

I write in my journal each morning. Today as I wrote and reflected on the speaker class, I wrote, “Jeff is a light at the right time.” The speaker class is amazing! I am using my notes from my memoir to help jog my memory of tales to tell each week. I think the writing along with the speaker class is providing me a deeper journey for my uncovering information about my formative years and the influence of those experiences. I am so very blessed; your leadership keeps me encouraged…thank you for all the nougats of regular encouragement. I do want to feel I am processing something relevant to share both for the benefit of others and my continued personal growth! Thanks again for your vision and energy to make this powerful growth opportunity happen!
