I have really enjoyed working with Dan from 1000 Feet Deep to set the direction of the organisation and improve and develop our staff and culture since February 2020. It has been one of the best investments I have made.
- Joshua Padamas, Padmos
Padmos - a business that has always taken pride in quality service and products - hit a crossroads after 25 years in business.
Growth had stagnated and their vision seemed out of reach.
It was during this challenging time that they partnered with 1000 Feet Deep to revitalise their team and develop clear, realistic goals towards their future growth and success.
Joshua, like many business leaders before and after him, was spending too much time working in the business instead of on the business.
“I was not leading the business and felt like giving up - it felt too hard,” Joshua said.
When Dan reached out I decided that I needed assistance from an external source for fresh guidance and tools on how to inspire myself and staff so we could raise our standards and achieve the best, not only for ourselves, but for our customers and the organisation.”
After working with us, Joshua found that staff were more engaged with the business - they were contributing at meetings and providing input on the mission and core values. This was revolutionary to the business’ success.
“Our core values, mission and vision statements are no longer just pieces of paper stuck to the wall, they are statements that we are all embracing and living and working on a daily basis.”
Joshua credits a lot of his growth to Dan’s guidance on leadership and how to be a more effective and inspiring leader at all levels of the organisation.
“Since starting this journey with Dan, my days have been inspiring, motivating and challenging, which has helped develop my leadership skills in so many areas.
“My problem-solving, prioritisation and productivity have improved. Dan is always in the background guiding and encouraging me to keep moving myself and my organisation forward,” Dan explained.
Another core benefit was the improvement of communication and collaboration across the team, which has led to a more streamlined approach to teamwork and more meaningful experiences to customers.
“Communication has always been a struggle within our company however Dan has given us the tools to better understand how and why the importance of communication is the key to any successful organisation.
“I have found that as I have grown through my partnership with Dan, my staff have grown. This in turn flows onto our customers' experience that they are receiving,” Dan said.
“I would highly recommend Dan and 1000 Feet Deep to any organisation that would like to raise their standards and achieve their full potential with a better work life balance.”
