The communications class has instilled a level of confidence in me I didn’t know I had. The techniques I’ve learned have already benefited me tremendously in my job. Thank you Transition Execs for helping me grow!

Crisis intervention doesn’t work: only Crisis CONTROL works. Believe me, as Governor I’ve been through many a crisis. There are only a few people who can fill in any time, anywhere. A great CEO leaves, a top-level manager dies, a major department head gets a better offer- all create huge voids. You won’t find anybody better to fill the void, plug the holes, or cover the gap than Danny Valenzuela. Danny is smart and talented, savvy and quiet, bold and honest. I trust Danny to do a great job for two weeks or two years or until you find a qualified replacement.

Former Governor of Arizona
I have worked with Danny Valenzuela as a management team running two major State Agencies. I would never be part of a management team without him. He has integrity, strength and very good judgment. This is just the person you need as a transitional manager. He will get you where you need to be. I cannot say enough good things about Danny Valenzuela.

Danny Valenzuela is a top-notch administrator. His professional experience is diverse, allowing him to easily fit into any position, able to take charge, provide leadership and make decisions. In short, to describe Danny, is to say that he is flexible, accountable and amiable. He considers how his decisions will impact both the workplace and the people who work there.

Your presentation to the ASBA Hispanic Native American Indian Caucus was exactly what we were looking for. Your perspective on the leadership qualities of Ernest Shackleton, and hisEndurance expedition to Antarctica, were directly related and applicable to the work of volunteer community servants such as these school board members. We received many comments complimenting your excellent presentation and inspirational story. Thank you for making this a very successful meeting.

I am so happy that you were able to share your leadership style with us on June 10th. The information you provided at our Brown Bag Lunch was extremely beneficial. We received a lot of positive feedback from those who attended.

I just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated your time and your expertise. You were just great the way you presented to the students and kept their attention the entire time!! The topic about leadership was fantastic, the role models and individuals you spoke about were very distinguished individuals from the community and back in time. Your interaction with the kids was priceless and I know that they learned so much from you and perhaps you probably saved one or a few from giving up on their education. Your encouragement was needed and for that I thank you.

Thank you for speaking at our Women’s Council of Realtors® business meeting. The information you shared about the “Characteristics of Leadership” was not only very informative but very timely as well. We are at the time of year when we are accepting nominations for officers for our 2009 slate. The handout that you shared with a list of leadership characteristics was an excellent way to interact with our membership and to get them to become aware of what is expected of today’s leaders.

He quickly volunteered to work with over 30 Latin ballplayers to develop their public speaking and self-presentation skills during our Instructional League Program in the Fall of 2006….I highly recommend Mr. Valenzuela as a trainer and mentor for those pursuing greater personal public presentation skills.

When you spoke to the group about leadership that comes from within, I could have heard a pin drop. All attention was riveted on you. After conducting the interviews with the 9 youths, your message was very well received.

You know what I thought when I first heard you at the conference? If this guy was a preacher, I would go to his church. You are passionate and inspirational. I appreciate all that you do. How wonderful to have such a great impact on the people around you.

Your story was fascinating and spell-binding and had us sitting on the edge of our chairs listening to it evolve. It contained many important lessons which will be of value to those of us who were fortunate enough to hear you speak. Your program provided great advice and hope for the future. Thank you for sharing the time and that wonderful story with us. We enjoyed the opportunity of learning from your coaching.
