Testimonials YPO

Michael Kiolbassa
Jim's chapter-retreat theme of "Get Connected" re-energized our chapter and was our highest-rated event of the year. Due to Jim's impact we are now one of the healthiest YPO/WPO chapters in the U.S. with significant presence at the GLC and other International events.

Yung Wu
Each member of our group had a deeply personal – in some cases life-changing – experience during our time with Jim at the retreat. In all cases, there was unanimous agreement that with Jim as a catalyst, we were able to achieve the most meaningful forum experience in all of our years together. Jim IS the gold standard for forum retreat facilitators.

Mike Abercrombie
At our Presidents’ Retreat Jim inspired 75 YPOers to address the challenging issues we had avoided. We grew closer as a chapter by walking a path of self-discovery together. When you are prepared to actively engage your chapter in a process to create lasting results, Jim’s your resource.

James Vance
Jim is an incredible facilitator. He possesses the strength of character for leading dynamic and high-powered groups into deeper levels of commitment and purpose. He has a unique ability to sense important moments and to boldly ask the tough questions. He then carefully guides us through intimate moments of self-discovery.

Ashok Melwani
It has been several years since I attended the Transition Seminar with Jim, yet I can still hear my key lessons in Jim's own voice as clear as a bell. Jim guided me in both evoking the emotions I needed to explore and inspiring me to take action.

Reade Fahs
Jim takes YPO groups (big and small) to new levels. I have worked with Jim in multiple settings and he always delivers. He is a font of information, inspiration, and innovation.

John Kinney
Jim brought both magic and enduring value to our YPO forum retreat. The retreat was a true life-changer for me, and our forum leapt to a wonderful, unexpected level as individual insights were unveiled. We now have the mutual support and respect to sustain this momentum in our regular meetings.

Brian Bouma
Jim was the catalyst for taking our forum to new depths of intimacy, authentic relationships with each other, and a level of bonding we had not experienced in our four years together. I strongly encourage any forum to work with Jim.

Chris Haase
Jim has helped me shape a vision of how I'd like my life to turn out, how I'd like to be remembered someday by my family and friends, and what really matters most. He's also helped me piece together a map to that place. I now have a reliable compass for choosing a route that best suits my personality and value system. Our work together has been a real blessing.

Roman Brunner
Jim's first retreat with us laid the foundation for us to go deep and to grow. The following two retreats cemented our relationships and strengthened the bond among us in a way that we never thought would be possible. As a moderator today in a new Forum in a different country, I am using Jim's tools to reach a sustainable quality and depth.

Melinda Hudson
Jim's and Judy's guidance at our spouse forum retreat has inspired me to seek deeper and more authentic relationships, not only with my forum, but with everyone in my life, including myself!

Sam Goodner
Jim Warner facilitated our YPO Presidents' Retreat in 2010. To say that our group is demanding and hard to manage would be an understatement, yet Jim received our highest speaker ratings of anyone in the past several years. The general consensus was that Jim was both thought-provoking and delivered great take-home value.

Robert Mulderig
Jim Warner has been a tremendous addition to a number of our YPO and WPO Forums. He has an amazing ability to get us to dig deep, seek the truth, and confront the destructive behaviors that hold us back from clean living. Jim is a warm, empathetic, great guy, and has become a friend in addition to a valued resource.

Jim Ellis
Jim's presentation to our San Gabriel Valley WPO Chapter was spellbinding for our members. The dinner conversation afterward was as animated as I have ever seen it, ringing with thoughts from the talk. A truly memorable evening for our chapter. It was outstanding – not soon forgotten.
