What Our Clients Are Saying

  • I am writing to let you know how much I appreciated the assessment you did for me this year. You and the rest of the team did an exceptional job with the entire process. Your approach, methodology, and interview skills provided me with the insight I needed to evaluate the team and make critical business decisions to improve in many areas. Additionally, your observations were correct and have assisted greatly in addressing some of the challenges brought about by merging the two companies’ cultures into a growth oriented/ revenue generating team. Your people business insights and recommendations were especially astute.

    Executive Vice President | American Systems

    Sr. Vice President Business Development & CSO | Marotta Controls, Inc.

  • The training, coaching and consulting work MBDi performed for Leupold from 2011-2014 was instrumental in helping our team develop the critical skills and processes needed to be successful. We created an Opportunity Pipeline, refined our Business Development Process, developed Award Plans, and identified which opportunities should be pursued. These diagnostic tools lead to a 200 percent growth in revenue during the 3 year time period. Furthermore, the MBDi system increased the team’s efficiencies, which reduced cost by an average of 10% each year. The folks at MBDi are an investment, not an expense
