“Outstanding feedback from the team on your team build session. They were deeply moved by the bicycle portion and sharing with the kids. We are all reminding ourselves how we can operate at LEVEL 12. Your session was a true inspiration to all of us.”
Vice President, Information Technology

The Home Depot Canada

"The past two days have been truly incredible for myself and all of our employees. The work you do not only transforms organizations, but also communities.  I know I can speak for all the participants when I say, this was the best team building exercise of all time!  What you've led us through will never be forgotten, and the legacy you leave and then enable in others, will change the world!  Thank You!"

"Awesome session today! I have been a Zehrs Manager for over 25 years and have been to dozens of team building sessions that just fade from memory right after you leave the room...this one was the best by far and I know we will not forget it! Thank You!"

Manager

Zehrs

“I was faced with a salesforce that was not always striving to achieve its very best and this showed in the monthly sales results. Tasked with growing my business and creating a lasting change in my sales staff, I asked LEVEL 12 to both inspire and shock them out of their comfort zone of doing just enough to get by. Dan delivered on both counts with a concentrated program that had my people break out of their comfort zones and achieve more. Since the session, new client acquisition and top line revenue has both improved, particularly in our growth areas of managed services and technology.”
President

ARC Document Solutions Canada

“As a sales manager, I want more than tired and dated sales training which the market is full of. “THE BREAKTHROUGH” program was extremely powerful and fun for showing everyone how to improve any result, regardless of the economy or any barrier we create in our mind. Dan is an extraordinary individual to work with!”

Sales Manager

Canadian Automobile Association (CAA)

“A simple “thank you” wouldn’t do justice to the appreciation I have for all of your efforts at our national sales event in November.  I was convinced from our first conversation that your program embodied exactly the message we hoped to impress upon the one hundred and fifty attendees but I couldn’t have envisioned how perfectly it ultimately worked out.  Due to my team’s miscommunication, your arrival was not a day early, as planned, but rather an hour early!  Your willingness to “charge on” and overcome every imaginable obstacle that laid in front of us (and there are too many to list) was the perfect example of grit and teamwork that we had been communicating to our team throughout the event.  The impact of the bike build and the reveal to the kids was overwhelming.  The impact the next day when I divulged the effort required to overcome the obstacles was equally meaningful.  I can sincerely state that a company’s culture was changed because of your event and your grit.  Thank you for making a difference!”

National Sales Conference, Participant Comments

Black & McDonald

“Dan conducted three full day workshops across the country for us. The primary purpose of the sessions was to challenge high performing sales people to unleash their full potential and achieve even greater levels of performance. The sessions achieved exactly that. Staff members were driven to realize that the impossible is almost always possible and our pre-conceptions are our greatest limiters. Dan’s content and style made the events truly successful.”

Former President

Randstad Canada

“The CaroMont Health Leadership Retreat ended with 20 bikes being built for kids from the Greater Gaston Boys and Girls Club. We grew as a team, as individuals, and as a community. And it was through the great work of Dan Perdue and his company Level 12. The best quote from a manager was “this is why I came to work for CaroMont and I’m lucky to have the opportunity to work with such great people with big hearts.”
I was told today that this event was the single most meaningful experience one of our Vice Presidents has experienced. He has been with us over 30 years. He said that this event has prompted him to reevaluate some things in his life. Our managers haven’t stopped talking about it. On Thursday we will celebrate Thanksgiving, and I will give thanks for having met you.”

As the facilitator, he raised the energy level of about 150 plus employees and brought it home with a fun-filled exercise and lessons that resonated at a time when the economy created multiple challenges.

“Being part of the Canadian Olympic Development Team means that my goals are big! I want to compete in the Olympics and my target is Olympic Gold in the 500. Dan is helping me build the mental and emotional strength I need to succeed. He is giving me powerful strategies and teaching me how to put a door in any mental wall I hit. He definitely knows what he’s talking about and I would recommend him to anyone who wants to change their life and start getting things done; anyone who has a bold vision and very high goals.”
Alexandra Ianculescu

“I was hiking in Tuscany when Dan asked me to write a testimonial. Fact is, I wouldn’t hike if it weren’t for Dan. Three years ago, I invited him to speak to college students, mostly in their early 20’s, about creating a vision for success. That speech transformed my life prompting me to ‘retire’ in my early 50’s to pursue a vision of success that put family, health, fitness and lifestyle as my top priorities. Dan’s vision for success has snowballed as I was joined in Tuscany by two friends who were inspired by my example.”
