Testimonials

"We hired Black River to provide our first ever leadership training at Bannock County. Rob was fantastic in meeting with us several times to help us develop a training program that fit exactly what we wanted. During the course of the training (it happened over the course of 6 months), we were in frequent contact to check our progress and make content adjustments. As a seasoned leadership training attendee, I have been very pleased with Black River and their approach. I have learned a few new things and most importantly, our team has grown from the training. I would highly encourage anyone looking for training to consider Black River. You will find thoughtful individuals who are genuinely concerned about you and your organization."

Jeff H, Bannock County Commissioner

“Dr. Rob Lion is the perfect example of an individual who really knows his craft and can articulate it in a way that makes very well-educated individuals feel like they understand the dynamic of his content, while still making the content palpable for the end employee. His ability to create strategies to help with organizational behavior is incredible! If you’re looking to create behavioral changes for the better, this is your guy!"

He has total command over his area of expertise, and it felt exhilarating learning in his presence. As I have gotten to know him more, both personally and professionally, I understand Rob's big heart. He has such deep love for his family and for wanting to help others in times of need. He has been a wonderful role model for me, and I am grateful for his love and support."
