“Really incredible.”
FinTech Startup - CEO and Founder
"Pronto’s approach not only helped us with thinking on our toes, but reinforced key leadership principles: The ideas of enduring optimism driving success, of being completely present in our work, and that we all perform better when we know that we have one another’s back. Their approach weaves coaching together with concrete exercises. Dan and Brian are exceptional facilitators and presenters. We will definitely work with them again."
Boutique Investment Management ($55BN AUM) - CEO

Global Investment Fund - Portfolio Manager
"I absolutely loved the session. I do not think the session will be forgotten in a hurry; it was incredibly impactful!"
Global Private Equity and Investments - HR and L&D Manager
"It was a great session, especially to kick off the offsite. At the end of the offsite, we did a roundtable on 'favorite sessions', and yours was mentioned several times.”
“The session went so smoothly... The content was great... I hope we'll find more opportunities to collaborate in the future."
Silicon Valley Venture Capital
"Candidly, I would have been reaching to give you any constructive feedback as I thought our session was excellent... Think some of my clients from our session may reach out to you!"
"That was awesome - thank you so much! We had a ton of fun. And think that it was a really great way to engage with everyone. Wouldn’t be surprised if you start getting more asks from us in the near future!"
Global Investment Bank
“PRONTO’s sessions challenge the tired, mechanical patterns of daily meeting interactions, and take us back to the original intent, actually listening to what your team has to say. For those weary of managers “grand-standing” at meetings, or managers who don’t realize they are doing it, this session comes as an incredibly fresh breath of air.”
Global Investment Bank - Managing Director
"I found the reminder to TRULY listen the most valuable. Mostly the part about waiting until someone finishes what they're saying before you formulate your response."
Cloud Communications - Executive Sales
“Made team members feel comfortable expressing themselves in front of each other. When the team is composed of diverse personalities, this workshop effectively breaks down barriers.”
