"Hats off to the authors of the piece on leadership and the coming transition to where 'millennials' will represent 60% + of America's workforce, and this foretells a lot about the coming shortfall in leadership talent available, particularly in healthcare. It is a key issue for all hospitals today, and was succinctly put and well-presented by the folks at Velardi Group LLC"

I am currently working with Peter to help me with my business. He cuts right to the chase on what you need to do to be successful and get to the next level. Tremendous motivator and coach
"
"I thoroughly enjoyed working with Peter, a great leader, skillful decision maker, and thoughtful motivator. Peter and I worked together on many projects and I appreciate his ability to set expectations, provide necessary resources (including himself), and foster an environment for growth within his leaders; while also allowing room for learning. Peter expects a high level of performance and commitment, as high as those that I found in the military, which undoubtedly motivates anyone around him to further succeed.
However, what sets Peter apart isn't his constant strive for excellence, but his concerted effort to always improve. Peter introduced me to the Montessori approach to learning, which resulted in a mutually beneficial relationship of continual improvement and problem solving techniques. Peter loves to make it happen, set goals and exceed them, constantly improve himself, and most importantly, motivate others around him to strive to do better. I unequivocally recommend Peter Velardi as a tremendous value add as a leader to any type of business, organization, or team."
− Chris Barber - Technology Executive, Digital Marketer, Entrepreneur

Working with him has helped me think big, drive superior results, and challenge myself to grow."
