Testimonials
I want to give a shout out to Mr. Ken for being the guest speaker and enlightening our own hotel team throughout his stay. I am a bit jealous that your team was able to soak up such amazing and crucial awareness of what It takes from each of us individually to keep a company running for long term benefits.
Kevin Nall was managing our Freer location at the time he attended your first seminar with us. One of his major takeaways was “find your spot on the floor.” Kevin has been doing it for 10 years and is now our Merchandise Manager. When I recently mentioned how he used your phrase “find your spot on the floor” he replied, “ I still do!”
Your teaching phrases and tools have stuck with us. Classic behaviors for building a good culture. Thank you, sir!
Ken Wilbanks is an amazingly gifted individual. His byline of “Advisor, Educator and Coach” is a most fitting description of what he does better than most – yet it does not even begin to describe “who” Ken is. A man of stalwart character, Ken is deeply compassionate, giving graciously and abundantly to those in his community and life circle, committed to lifting up everyone he encounters, undergirding those willing to “walk the walk” to reach their fullest potential, and drawing out the best in each person and organization that has the good fortune of partnering with him in reshaping their future. I am proud to regard Ken as a great friend and brother and can never thank him enough for the positive influence he has had on my life.
Ken was the spark that ignited an organization to reach past its potential. And that fire still very much burns today. Thank you very much Ken for helping HPM get to the next level in its evolution. I am thankful for your influence in helping me grow as a human being and many others across HPM.
Ken’s experience & wealth of knowledge of the building material industry has helped me work through multiple issues and different scenarios. It has been very helpful to talk things through with someone that understands what you are going through, because he has either gone through it himself, or has helped someone go through it already.
I am certain that Ken’s ‘always positive energy’ is the main reason why folks like having him around their employees. He is a virus that kills complacency and motivates the soul.
Ken Wilbanks is one of the most inspirational speakers and coaches I know. His honest and sincere approach in teaching from his past experiences reflects the wealth of knowledge he has to offer. I not only view Ken as a coach and mentor, but as a true friend. Ken continues to give us guidance, and continues to make our company better. For that we truly thank him.
It was a complete joy to hear you speak. I found the information to be invaluable, insightful, completely refreshing and quite liberating. We look forward to putting some new practices in place and bringing our yard crew and store to a whole new level.
