4 Every time we have an interaction with DDI, I always learn something new. I truly value and appreciate this and it has helped me to grow professionally over the years. I love what DDI does and how you have helped us achieve many great results. 4 Roger Lauzon Manager, Organizational Development, Caesars Windsor 4

5 What 4We 4Do Over the past four-and-a-half decades, we ve honed our expertise in the science and practice of leadership strategy, selection, development, and succession management with thousands of clients around the world.

6 DDI did a good job of proactively identifying business issues and problems; this is where DDI excels. DDI was able to see through complexity and irrelevant information and figure out what needed to happen. 4Mark Cahill Global Director of Training, PPG Industries Leadership4Strategy Does your company have a strategic business plan? Of course. Does your company have a clear strategy for finding and building the leaders to make that plan happen? Likely not. Think of the value you ll add if you could instead establish, elevate, and sustain leadership strategy as the #1 business priority in your organization. Everyone heading in the same direction, towards the same big win. We can help. DDI will partner with you to: Connect your leadership strategy to your business objectives. Size leadership capacity gaps to specify precisely where you need leaders, how many you ll need, when they need to be ready, and for what challenges they are preparing.

Engage and energize senior stakeholders to champion and invest in leadership. 6

7 I like working with DDI since they are experts in their field, based on sound research and knowledgeable consultants. They are great to partner with. 4 Caroline O Shea Director, Human Resources, IPEX Management Leader4Selection The wrong person, the wrong fit, or the wrong position can drive up turnover and drive down morale. Bad leaders lead to bad outcomes across the board.

8 When I share a business challenge or need, DDI offers a listening ear followed by tangible ideas and solutions acts as a sounding board for ideas. 4Scott Collins VP Human Resources, Oldcastle Leadership4Development While your leaders in China aren t always speaking the same language as your leaders in Chicago, they all need to speak a consistent leadership language. Communicating effectively, coaching consistently, inspiring others in the same direction towards your organization s goals.

9 The DDI executive assessment has become a critical step in our hiring and succession processes to the extent that no C-suite position is filled without first putting them through a DDI assessment. 4 Brian Callaghan VP Leadership Development, ArcelorMittal Succession4Management The people you have today aren t necessarily the leaders you need tomorrow.
