Brownell, I cannot even find the words to thank you. I am in awe of what your program allowed us to do in the way of teambuilding, developing the awareness, insights, perspectives, skills, viewpoints, planning, celebrating the strengths of our individual uniqueness—WOW, your program is POWERFUL. If I died today, I could honestly say, “What a ride!” Superb and powerful activity.  Please know that you have my admiration, respect, indebtedness, appreciation and affection for what you shared with our team.  – Jeff Whitney, President GaMPI – Georgia Chapter of Meeting Planners International

I would like to express my appreciation for the wonderful job you have done in designing the interactive Draw Success Diversity and Inclusion Training. I have been working in the diversity space for 30-years and your program is one of the best I have seen with respect to being a positive engaging experience for participants allowing them to look at their perspective and the perspective of others, as well as understand that diversity is not just about differences but also about similarities and those skills we all bring to the table.  – Gary Wheeler, HR Director

I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the opportunity to participate in DrawSuccess and to see firsthand how it works. I think you have created something phenomenal that a lot of organizations can use…forget use…organizations need this information. It’s always refreshing to see things in a new light and brought forth in an innovative way. Again Thank you for the opportunity and I look forward to working with you for the Project Management module you’ve created to help us DrawSuccess. – Pauline Enahora, The Coca-Cola Company

“What a pleasure it is to publicly endorse Brownell and DrawSuccess. Her work was an important component of the plan for the 2008 ASTD Atlanta Executive Board as we were creating our team. My confidence in making the decision to work with her was based on comparing DrawSuccess to other programs I had experienced. Her creative talents are supported by her unceasing commitment to produce results for her clients.”  – Paul Terlemezian, 2008 President ASTD-Atlanta

“We hired Brownell as a business consultant for her Draw Success program. It was a great success for my team. Many of our employees now refer to themselves by color (personality type). I have also noted a difference in how we talk to each other and approach our differences in how each of us makes decision. Brownell did a great job as a facilitator. I would highly recommend Draw Success for building your team. Brownell, thanks for a GREAT job and a well designed program.”  – David Pair, President Casablanca Design Group

“Being a member of a large organization I would like to tell you about a program create called DrawSuccess. It is aimed at helping organizations develop teams that function better together. It is unlike anything I’ve ever heard of in the area of organizational development in that it incorporates assessments and playing a board game. The bottom line is that I believe the DrawSuccess process really contributed to us getting much more accomplished, much more quickly. And, just as importantly, we also had more fun working together. I was so impressed with this program that I recommend it to others who are looking to take their teams and their business to the next level.” – Lynn, Business Owner

“Brownell is the creative genius behind a transformational approach to building high performing teams that achieve measurable results. I have seen a multitude of team programs through the years, and I can honestly say that DrawSuccess is truly unique. The moment I met Brownell, I was struck by her sunny disposition, insightful approach, creativity and her passionate vision of helping companies break the harmful dynamics of dysfunctional teams. And who can’t relate to the pain of being on teams that over flowed with hostility, animosity, manipulation, cliques and downright dishonesty? Unlike other companies who claim to break the stranglehold of dysfunctional teams, the unique program design of DrawSuccess does that and more!”  – Barbara Giamanco, CEO & President, TalentBuilders, Inc.

“From the exercises provided by Brownell Landrum, not only was I able to categorize myself, but she helped us look at team building from another perspective. Based on her evaluation and the information that I provided, I found that I was an extraverted and task focused individual, but more so than just tell what category each of us fit into, Ms. Landrum was able to explain to us how we might use our difference to best work together.

“With many things in life, having diversity is key. This is very true in business. Everyone thinks in different ways, and that is what makes business so interesting. You can take the top 10 most successful entrepreneurs, and map out their skills, and each of them will show you that there is not just one road to success, and that is what Ms. Brownell’s analysis emphasizes.

 ——

Being a “Green” in the business world, I understand that I am a very outgoing person who is driven by my goals and I am self determined to reach those goals. But from her analysis I was able to see how having a person who is a “blue” can provide the balance that my company might need.

 ——

For example although I am very task focused, I know that I need to attain a certain level of people focused skills which will help me to have compassion for my employees. If I go around only focusing on the work, I will step on many toes and burn many bridges to achieve my task, but I will set my company back in the long run. Having that blue person who is more introverted and people focused will help me realize this.

 ——

Also, being a “green” I am rather unorganized. It doesn’t matter how task oriented I am, if my level of organization is too low, I won’t be able to efficiently complete any projects. It is through the correct combination of these attributes (Green, Red, Gold, and Blue) that we as entrepreneurs can put together the perfect team. ” – Clark Williams, Entrepreneur

“We used the Draw Success program on a recent company retreat to great effect. Everyone learned more about themselves and how better to communicate with others. I am convinced that what experienced at our retreat with Draw Success will increase both our operational efficiency and customer service in the year ahead.” – Chad Massaker, CEO
