"I have grown into the person I am meant to be"... ...read full review
Christopher,
Working with you and learning from you on a day-to-day basis, through Global Educators Academy, and through your presentations has been the single most important career-changing experience for me.
Not only do you practice what you preach, you empower everyone around you to practice personal responsibility in an open environment where we can call it as it without fear, limitations, and guilt.
While working side-by-side with you, I have grown into the person that I am meant to be and now feel that I am taking full responsibility for the life that is ahead of me. I am no longer trapped into a mold that was set before me by my parents or society, but feel that I can now carry my own message and create my own future knowing that I can make my own choices through applying the Keys of Responsibility™ to anything that comes my way.
Thanks for being an inspiration, guide, and visionary.

Not to sound over the top, but there's literally my life before Responsibility Redefined™ (BRR) and after Responsibility Redefined (ARR).
The effects show up in quicker identification of problems, more creative solutions, and greater collaboration in developing and executing them. This has enabled me to be much more effective in my human resources consulting practice while significantly increasing my enthusiasm and sense of aliveness.
I actually look forward to problems now because the process for resolving them with your Responsibility Redefined model is so energizing and engaging. It's not that I don't go through the blame, justification, shame, etc. mindsets; it's that I go through them a whole lot faster than I used to.

We have studied your Responsibility Process™ model over the past 3 years to help educate our entire organization on personal and shared responsibility. And we have experienced dramatic results.
We have simply become one of the top-performing injection molding companies in North America by any measure. In addition, Responsibility Redefined™ has allowed my personal/professional career to transcend to a new level.
I highly recommend your educational products and services!

"Our family life is better. This is truly a blessing"... ...read full review
I learned some important things from you that have changed my life.
I have known about the Responsibility Process™ for a few years now. My husband Ashley taught it to us a few years ago after studying with you. I knew the words and the ideas, but that changed after studying Responsibility Redefined™ with you. I came to Global Educators Academy to learn about Responsibility.
I wanted to learn about it for myself. I need to understand it and use it in my own life and then I can teach it to others.
What I learned is that change can only come from within me. Many people will look at Responsibility and think of lots of other people who need this. But this is not something we can foist on someone else. Responsibility is something we must incorporate from within. Learning the strategies to get out of Denial, Blame, Justify, Shame and Obligation to Responsibility are so very important to our every day lives.
While I am incorporating this in my life, I am also teaching it to my children. Our family life is better. That is truly a blessing. Thank you so much Christopher!
Your message is so very important. Everyone should have a poster of the Responsibility Process™ where it can be seen everyday. I have one on my bathroom mirror. I have that constant reminder everyday—to come from Responsibility. When I am in another mental place, I have this visual reminder to help me get back to where I want to be.
Christopher- you are such a great teacher! Thank you so very much for your willingness to share your experiences and your knowledge.
Sincerely,
Julie Johnson Julie Johnson Photography julieannjohnson.com Dallas, Texas
"In control of my life"... ...read full review
Thank you for introducing me to this powerful concept of taking ownership of myself.
With you I started to understand (and I reassured it later on) that “I do not own the stimulus I receive or the circumstances I live, but I do own my responses to them”. Over the last three years I've been studying Coaching and Change. The international programs I’ve taken in these fields have had a profound impact on me. However, all of them build on one thing I learned from you: The Responsibility Process™.
The most difficult thing is to accept that “I always produce my own results”, but once I admit it I feel more in control of my life. It’s not something magical or spontaneous; it requires hard work. From the material you include in "How to Teach Responsibility to Anyone" I learned in a very practical and simple, but highly effective way, to see how to reinforce the Responsibility Process™ as a habit using the Keys to Responsibility™. Definitively “intention” is the “starting attitude”, “awareness” is the “entrance door” and “confront” is the “ignition turnkey” to continuously expand my possibilities in every aspect of my life.
Practicing responsibility has allowed me to have the highest position in my professional career and to successfully implement change initiatives in my company that never would have succeeded before. In my personal life I have established strong ties with my wife and kids so we have been able to effectively deal with difficult losses and chronic health problems. And 2 years ago I started to exercise, taking responsibility for my health. Since then I have run at least 6 competitions and have lost 18 pounds. I am aware that practicing responsibility is a continuous process and that will never end, but I have found in your concepts a solid ground for functioning.
The Responsibility Process™ does not make my problems easier than they were before. Instead, it makes me expand my possibilities to handle them better. In that sense it doesn’t solve problems instantaneously, but it “solves” me. Do you understand what I mean? The Responsibility Process™ does not work on my problems, it works directly on me!
The first time we met I told you that many authors I had read insisted on “taking responsibility first” as the most important thing to execute effectively, but they never said how. You do and you do it greatly!
Sincerely,
Miguel Puerta Learning and Organizational Development Director Grupo Industrial Saltillo Mexico
"Energy, fervor, drive, and the will to approach my entire life differently"... It's difficult for me to put into words what your work has meant to my life. ...read full review
I can use phrases such as "life-changing" or "mind-altering" and "critical to my well-being" - they are true and accurate. But they do not do justice to what this means to me.
As a successful educator, a "got a lot" baby-boomer, a long-time spouse, I was coasting toward retirement, vaguely dissatisfied with my life and work. Ultimately I was wondering, just as many of my friends and colleagues had voiced, "Is this all there is?" ... and then YOU came along! I first read your newsletters as part of my attempt to keep up to date with developments in my field of teaching and learning and something was distinctly different. Your discussions of character, team-building, and responsibility went beyond familiar platitudes to real "how-to's." I was intrigued, went to a day-long session to learn more, and followed this introduction to the Global Educators' Academy.
In the process, I discovered that I was not accepting responsibility for my life, my work, my relationships ... oh, I THOUGHT I was doing all that. I had it all figured out; everybody else in my world just wasn't living up to what they needed to do. None of it was my fault because I was doing the best I knew how; I just wasn't sure how I was going to get all those other folks in my life whipped into shape! When I acknowledged that indeed I was not living in a responsible way, and that I was living on some other islands in my mind (as you call them) that limited my power, it was as if someone had turned my world upside down. Then the spotlight showed clearly that my choices and my way of looking at the world were the limits that shaped my world.
You helped me develop insight about what it means to be free to choose and powerful - responsible. That discovery gave me energy, fervor, drive, and the will to approach my entire life differently. Am I THERE yet? No, but I have each day the power and the ability to choose what I do and say. I have the insight to work between. And my colleagues have noticed; my boss has noticed; I approach life with a zest and gusto that matters to my work.
I am focusing my efforts now on my personal life, my interactions with spouse and family. The journey is fascinating and full of unexpected twists and turns. But because I know how powerful, and free I really am to choose a position of responsibility in all that I do, I am confident that I can make a difference for me.
Thank you,

When my business partner and I came to your course last year, we were deeply impacted by the power of your Responsibility Process™ and the implications it has on daily life, our growing business, and the teaching that we do with our clients. Over the past year we've had many opportunities to share the Responsibility Process™ with our coworkers and incorporate it into our consulting and training.
I personally find the techniques for recognizing conflicting intentions and working through the fog of emotional blocks a powerful skill that helps me move past mere coping mechanisms and become truly able to respond to important situations. I now have this ability to overcome any frustration and move beyond impediments towards personal and professional growth. These techniques make huge difference when incorporated into team work, too.
Thank you for your insight and teachings. We truly value your work and look forward to listening to your new CDs.

As someone who has worked in Higher Education for nearly thirty years I thought I already knew a great deal about teaching young people about responsibility and decision making. Yours is an innovative approach based on solid theory with concrete steps that are applicable to a multitude of situations and audiences. I was able to return to my campus and immediately put the tenets of the model into action in my own work and to use it in training with staff and students.

"So much happier in my life"... ...read full review
Dear Christopher,
After reading your book, Teamwork Is An Individual Skill, I knew I wanted to learn more about the Responsibility Process™. I found Global Educators Academy and decided to attend.
I was pleasantly surprised as I thought this would be a class on how to teach TEAMWORK to the teams I was coaching, but soon realized it was a class for ME and the changes I needed to make. This class helped change not only my professional life, but also my personal life. It came at just the right time in my life.
For my family life, I found it helpful in dealing with my two grown boys. Both are wonderful children, but at times I was upset about how things were happening with one or both of them. I learned in class that I was able to control my RESPONSE-ABILITY in our relationships.
This is a very freeing feeling. My relationships with my sons have never been better. Thank you for waking me up for this.
In my professional life, I have seen such big changes for myself. I know I spend some time in most of the "islands" (as you describe them), but the island of "Shame" has my name all over it. It was so helpful to learn that when I act out of Shame I am not taking true responsibility. I was raised to believe that I was taking responsibility when I acted from this position. When I started learning to leave this island and move to Responsibility, I was so much happier in my life and found that things worked so much better.
My boss noticed this and I was promoted now twice since attending this course and have had an increase in salary of over 10%.
One of the other things that I loved about this course was that not only did you change my life, but you gave me tools to help others learn about Responsibility Redefined ™. This has actually helped me to study the material on a regular basis and also keep myself reminded to live from a position of Responsibility.
You challenged us to teach in every opportunity we found. I have taken that challenge to heart and have found it invigorating when I have the opportunity to share this truly amazing material.
Thank you Christopher for sharing this information with me and helping me to share with the world to help achieve your dreams and now mine.
