                 Helping Everyone Live Productively
“We have used his (Personal Development Group)
services for employee assessment and training for
supervisors and lead people. The response has
been very good and we are seeing measurable
progress. The use of personal assessments to
determine personality traits and then using that
information to build team efforts has been
valuable. Ken has an unique ability to deliver
difficult messages to people in a way that doesn’t
turn them off or offend them. He delivers the
message in a soft way, but firm tones that sink in.

realize their potentials, desires and needs in both their

                      Helping Everyone Live Productively
Why The LIFE PRESERVER?
We get asked “What are the guarantees of success?”
That is why we use the life preserver as our logo.
Many people when asked about a life preserver, will
say it saves lives. Does it?

The fact is, the life preserver only assists in saving
lives. The individual has to make the decision and
effort to be saved, or in this case succeed.

At Personal Development Group, we are that life
preserver. Once the individual makes the decision
and the effort to succeed, we assist, encourage and
support the person to become successful.

  • 26. Why The LIFE PRESERVER? We get asked “What are the guarantees of success?” That is why we use the life preserver as our logo. Many people when asked about a life preserver, will say it saves lives. Does it? The fact is, the life preserver only assists in saving lives. The individual has to make the decision and effort to be saved, or in this case succeed. At Personal Development Group, we are that life preserver. Once the individual makes the decision and the effort to succeed, we assist, encourage and support the person to become successful. Helping Everyone Live Productively
