“If you are preparing for a transformation, my best advice is to know what your limits are.  Know what you can and can't do. Take inventory of your finances and other resources. And then from there, I would bring in Rayner and Belgard.”

Pat Finneran

President of Accelerated Performance Solutions, LLC, and former Board Director for Sabreliner Corporation and Marine Corp Aviator

“When we started on our Performance Improvement journey Bill Belgard and his company were hired to implement ‘Employee Engagement’ . I must admit that I was not an early fan, dismissing it as more ‘soft stuff’ unrelated to getting airplanes designed and built. Was I wrong!

Bill and his team persisted, and I learned to trust and respect him and his team. We went from strength to strength for two Boeing organizations and continue our partnership and friendship yet today. We could not have done it without him.”                       

“Bill Belgard and Steve Rayner are organizational transformation gurus.  Their expertise in transformation and practical advice combined with their ability to work at any level of the organization makes them a wonderful resource for any organization looking to transform!”
