Strategic Proficiency
Testimonials

"I recommend the 'Service Value' technique and, within it, the 'Value Spectrum' for any business executive who understands the value of effective communication and decision making. We are a startup with precious little time to succeed. Tom laid out his Value Spectrum and we tried it and found immediate results. Having a simple structure to work with has proven invaluable. I recommend taking the time to discover this valuable tool for yourself." - Mike Grove, CEO, Open Country

"I highly recommend the 'Service Value' and 'Style Maturity' techniques, developed by Tom Buckholtz, for anyone engaged in the transformation of government or industry. I have used the Value Spectrum in shifting from a paper-based publication to Web publication and knowledge management strategy. The Value Spectrum has sharpened my perception of organizations and how they operate." - Wayne Hanson, Senior Executive Editor, Center for Digital Government, e.Republic, Inc.

"I think that this course would work well for individuals that a company is 'watching' for promotion. It gives them an intellectual tool that is easily put into conventional practice." - From an evaluation of an Strategic Proficiency seminar provided through the University of San Francisco, School of Business and Management, Executive Education program.

"The potential to launch the next management revolution."- Jerry Learmonth; Founder, Broadband Network Services Inc.; Executive Director, Executive Master's Program in Systems Engineering, University of Virginia; from his endorsement of Tom Buckholtz' book in which the techniques were first published.

"The Service Value and Style Maturity techniques provide as important a conceptual breakthrough for enhancing business success as have Relativity and Quantum Mechanics for keeping physics viable. Fortunately, unlike Relativity or Quantum Theory, almost any person, group, or enterprise can benefit quickly and significantly from Value and Maturity." - Ron Fredericks, President, MultimediaComputing.com
