Don Mitchell Jr., M.Ed.

Her insights, expertise, and commitment to our team’s development have been instrumental in fostering a culture of collaboration and achievement. It’s as she possessed a magic formula for turning challenges into steppingstones and transforming obstacles into opportunities.

The transformative power of Vistage became evident as our Chair consistently encouraged our group to delve deeper into each situation, peeling back layers to uncover the core issues. This process of introspection and analysis enabled us to refine our processes, gain a clearer understanding of our objectives, and fortify critical aspects of our business such as finance, growth strategies, and long-term vision. With our Chair’s expert guidance, we reached new heights, transcending our own expectations and achieving goals that once seemed out of reach.

Reflecting on my Vistage journey, I am awed by the pivotal role it played in enabling me to embark on a path of early entrepreneurship in my 20s, building substantial enterprise value, crafting a well-structured exit strategy, and eventually transitioning to a life of fulfillment and quality time with my family in my 40s. This incredible trajectory would have remained a distant dream without the unwavering support of my Chair, Lisa Rios, and the dynamic group.

In 2021, I achieved the milestone of selling my business, a success I largely credit to Lisa and the invaluable coaching sessions she provided. Sending much love to Lisa, with hopes of collaborating once more in the future!

Our General Manager is an existing employee, with LDI’s expertise our General Manager has transitioned to an executive level role and is responsible for leading our entire operations. I strongly recommend LDI and Lisa, they are strong in all aspects of business, strategy, and leadership.

LDI has the capability to work with people in any industry at any level and affect change. If you want to be more successful, then LDI is the catalyst to help you.

For over a decade, we have collaborated with the team at The LDI Group, who have been instrumental in providing individualized coaching to our Executive and Leadership Teams, orchestrating monthly management sessions, facilitating strategic planning sessions and delivering the LDI LAB Leadership training courses. Their comprehensive approach opens a significant opportunity for alignment across all levels of our organization. The LDI Group has consistently demonstrated its capability to elevate our performance to the next level.

I wholeheartedly recommend The LDI Group Team to any individual or team ready to commit to their growth, face challenges head-on, and pursue development opportunities.

When we first engaged with Lisa Rios and the LDI Group, Cucamonga Valley Medical Group was in a challenging state, struggling with leadership direction, a lack of professionalization, and minimal business acumen. She helped establish a strong core culture, developed a financial understanding among shareholders, streamlined our operations for growth, and significantly improved our EBITDA and NOI. Additionally, she expanded our organizational structure and fostered leadership development through regular training, personalized sessions, and strategic planning, all underpinned by a culture of vulnerability-based trust and servant leadership.

Lisa’s knack for simplifying complex concepts and applying real-world examples has made our training exceptionally impactful, highlighting common challenges and emphasizing that we are not alone in our journey. This practical approach has been instrumental in our development and success.

I wholeheartedly recommend the LDI Group to any organization committed to serious growth and development, as Lisa and her team offer invaluable insights and strategies for achieving sustainable progress.”

I would highly recommend the LAB to anyone looking to become more self-aware, a better teammate, and a more impactful leader.  The sessions built on one another as we built camaraderie in our cohort, and the culmination of our efforts manifested in our Capstone projects, which we are already implementing in our business.  The LDI LAB is an investment that is certain to pay dividends.

We deeply appreciate the dedication and expertise that Lisa and her team have contributed to our success.

Our executive team left strategic planning more cohesive, and I continue to develop personally and professionally working individually with her team. Our partnership with The LDI Group has made me a confident and effective leader.

Initiating with the executive team, the LDI LAB has since been extended to our management team due to its profound success, indicating our commitment to ongoing development with Lisa and her team’s support. Boudreau’s pursuit of growth is ambitious and achieving it without exceptional leadership is unimaginable. In the current competitive market, attracting top talent poses a considerable challenge. However, the LDI Group’s offerings enable us to integrate individuals who align with our culture but may initially lack the necessary leadership or managerial skills. These programs accelerate their development, equipping emerging leaders with both the knowledge and confidence required to guide their teams toward remarkable achievements.

For any organization that values people management and development, LDI’s programs are indispensable. I wholeheartedly recommend LDI and Lisa to anyone aiming for personal or business growth.

Their team is not just skilled; they exude professionalism at every interaction, guiding us through the process of not just learning, but truly understanding how to apply new strategies and insights to our leadership and daily operations. The learning programs LDI offers are top-notch and highly relevant to any growth minded business, blending theory with practical application in a way that is both engaging and highly effective.

However, what truly sets The LDI Group apart is their ability to tailor these strategies to the specific needs and challenges of our company, demonstrating a depth of understanding and flexibility that is rare in the industry. Thanks to LDI, we have not only enhanced our professional capabilities but have also seen measurable improvements in our business outcomes. We are deeply grateful for their partnership and highly recommend their services to any company looking to professionalize and develop their leadership and operations further.
