Thoughts from Our Community

More Testimonials

I was deeply impacted by the program Paragon hosted for our senior leadership team. Their holistic content is exactly what is needed, yet almost always missing, in organizational development courses. Specifically, I was so impressed that they managed to include critical concepts from very complex topics including: neuroscience, the mind-body connection, and interpersonal relationships in a way that was digestible and immediately applicable. I loved the focus on internal self-awareness and regulation as the key to strong outcomes at work and in life in general. It enabled us to be open, to have calm productive discussions about difficult situations, and to be more creative in planning. This is transformative work and it’s truly unique! I can see tangible impacts in myself and in our leadership and look forward to additional workshops and training with them.

Our organization was fortunate to have Paragon host an engaging workshop during our offsite leadership retreat. They were very effective in sharing concepts and guidance to an audience of government employees that tends to be relatively unreceptive and skeptical. During an exercise focused on team dynamics, Brett & Jeff’s ability to quickly read and intervene a potentially revealing and negative response was not lost on me. Their education, insight, experience, and ability to establish a collaborative team environment is tremendously effective. Not to mention sorely needed in our organization.

I have personally benefitted from their coherence training and incorporate the tools and techniques into my daily routine, especially before important meetings, and during challenging situations.

 

I first heard of Paragon’s work when I attended a summit for CHRO leaders of major colleges and universities. Their message on intelligent energy management resonated strongly and inspired me to engage Paragon for a team project with my HR managers. I was feeling an urgency to support my team that was showing signs of burn out, overwhelm, and were drained due to the effects that the pandemic has had on our campus.

The work that we did with the Paragon team had a significant positive impact on our leadership group as well as overall team dynamics. Our leadership team was specifically focused on improving the overall stress levels and creating greater connection among out team members, especially as we all work remotely. With just a few group sessions, we have had a momentous shift in stress levels and have fully implemented the Paragon teachings, including coherence and choice point techniques, into our day to day work. Working with Paragon is truly a remarkable experience and one that we are looking forward to continuing. We are grateful to be on the journey together.
