Testimonials
I have worked with Charlie Levings since 2007 and I have found him and his firm to be an excellent resource for our organization. During this time Levings & Associates has provided company-wide training on a variety of professional development subjects. Their work with us has helped us address critical issues as well as promote policies that improve the workplace.
Mr. Levings has also worked with me as an executive coach and has become a trusted advisor. He has tremendous insight on leadership and management issues and experience in helping clients develop problem solving strategies. I highly recommend Mr. Levings.

Through the entire coaching process, Charlie successfully ensured that I challenged my own views and opinions and helped me explore areas that I needed improvement in with greater clarity. Preparing for my coaching sessions made me more self-aware and has helped me improve my effectiveness within my organization. I would highly recommend Charlie’s coaching program to anyone wanting to improve their leadership skills. The individual sessions with him were extremely valuable and rewarding.

The training was very concise and left you feeling like you had a lot of ideas that you could implement right away — some really small and quick to get results and some larger that you could work on for a long, long time to gain larger results.

Department of Environmental Protection
Charlie (Levings) was able to help us fashion materials specifically for our business and helped us train our staff to be good marketers. I've been able to continue to use that information that Charlie provided in all of my marketing efforts.
Mary Ellzey,
Development & Evaluation Consultant
It was a really good class. I really enjoyed it. The instructors were really good at making it interesting and keeping it lively, because it could have been a boring class. It was a lot of fun for the class and we learned a lot.
Bill Zimmer,
Golf Course Manager
We had a rapidly growing multimedia company. We realized that we needed some help. We chose Levings & Associates because of their expertise and reputation. In a short period of time, we realized that the morale, productivity and just general well being of our employees was vastly improved.
Mick Everall, CEO,
Multimedia Firm
We'd like to express our gratitude to Levings & Associates for their outstanding seminar on "Workplace Sexual Harassment: Awareness and Prevention." The 4-hour workshop was not only tremendously informative, but it was a fun filled and enjoyable educational experience for the professionals in our organization. Your trainer is very motivational, energetic and confident, and did an excellent job captivating our interest and getting us involved. Since the seminar, our organization has been on our toes — making sure that everyone is treated with the utmost respect and equality. Thank you, Levings & Associates, for the time and energy you invested in us.

As Training Manager, my concern is always to find the highest quality trainers who will teach the most up-to-date material. I do not want to worry about each class. You consistently satisfy this requirement so that I never need to worry about a Levings' class: You hit the mark. I especially appreciate your willingness to work with us to meet any special requests that we have of you, whether it be to modify a course, to change a section, or to conduct evaluations. Your enduring interest in improving your product and satisfying your customer's needs is valuable to us in meeting our training goals.

Charlie Levings is a highly respected executive coach, so I was delighted when offered the opportunity to work with him one on one. Charlie is an excellent listener who introduced alternative strategies that enabled me to align my professional goals with my personal values system more favorably.
N. Messer, VP Regional Service Administrator
Our managers — from the first line supervisors to the top managers — participated in Levings & Associates' Management Skills Training series. The evaluations were very positive. Most of the comments were about Charlie's ability to engage the whole group; everyone felt a part of the training. Levings & Associates also trained all of our employees — 800 company wide — on recognizing and preventing sexual harassment. The consistent comment was on the quality of the speaker. Charlie took what could be a sensitive and touchy topic and put everyone at ease in discussing it. He sometimes used humor, but still managed to maintain the seriousness of the topic.
