"7-Eleven’s long-standing relationship with Thayer Leadership has been a pillar of our executive leadership development for nearly two decades. The quality of the Thayer faculty and the engagement activities are second to none. The faculty actively teach and challenge participants to think differently and with an enterprise mindset. They provide practical application exercises to reinforce the learnings immediately. In short, putting the learnings into practice now versus upon returning to the workplace is an outstanding advantage for Thayer. Participants return to their workplace confident and ready to apply their learnings. As an organization operating in a constant VUCA environment, the lessons around clarity of and consistent communication coupled with improved scenario planning and the learned flexibility to adjust to an ever-changing environment and from our actions are now woven into the fabric of how we operate."

Faculty members like Malcolm Frost naturally connect with people at every level of the organization, from the front lines all the way to the executive team."

"When we brought the board to West Point, it was pivotal for me and the board. I've always been a big fan of kind the military way of doing things and how you build teams and the trust that’s built there. When I went through that it was pretty amazing to just see how people just react differently. They open up their vulnerabilities. They listen differently. Even board member who thinks they know everything listens differently, and so you really have seen—and I will tell you, that experience created the board. I would say the teamwork that was created there was amazing. And it lasted. It’s still lasting. In fact, every now and then I'll bring up some of the principles that we learned there."

"Thayer was a missing brick in the wall for us. We knew what we wanted to do; we weren’t quite sure how to go about doing it in a meaningful, purposeful way. What Thayer brought was a tried and proven leadership model of the Army. The two things we walked away with that we have now used, regularly and effectively, were the after-action reviews and allowing people to make mistakes and learn. Virtually every meeting we have now, there is a conversation about what went well, what could we have done better, and what have we learned from this?"

"Having Thayer Leadership work with our organization was a memorable and valuable experience for our players, coaches, and front office. With interesting concrete examples from the faculty’s own experience, they demonstrated how the military develops a leadership culture, and got us thinking about how we could incorporate this into the Reds culture. With the credibility of military experience and character, the faculty challenged our players to think about their own views of leadership. It was a unique and enriching experience, and the effects of the experience will positively influence our organization."
