"Chris led a course that was extremely informative and left an impact on myself and my colleagues to further our development and character. His patience, knowledge of the industry and leadership qualities quickly make everyone around him better. Since participating in the course, I continue to find myself in my everyday life referring to certain areas we discussed, which has helped me become better in all of my interactions and create a positive working environment. Thank you!"
Zach Korrman - Senior Manager, Global Partnerships, Oak View Group
"Here are the top three things I learned from Chris Gargano’s workshop series; (1) leadership needs to be part of the everyday Job, (2) leadership is just as important as your day-to-day job, and (3) leaders need to change their mindset to prioritize leadership just as much as their typical job responsibilities."
Justin Schain - Manager, Accounting, New York Jets
“Being a part of Chris Gargano’s leadership program was not only incredibly rewarding, but truly transformed the way I think about both my role in the business and about my career as a whole. Chris engages with the group in such a way that makes you want to participate in the workshop and apply the invaluable lessons learned right away. He changed the way I think about my responsibilities, how I approach projects, and how I communicate with others both in and out of the office. I cannot thank him enough for everything I gained from the experience, and I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to become a leader in their field.”
Dr. Bri Newland - Associate Dean, UCCS College of Business
Professor Gargano has taught leadership courses for the NYU Preston Robert Tisch Institute for Global Sport for over five years as an adjunct professor. In that time, he has been an exceptional educator and mentor to our undergraduate students. While the leadership courses have evolved over the years, Professor Gargano now leads our capstone leadership course, Senior Seminar in Leadership. In this course, he works closely with graduating seniors to define who they are as budding leaders and equip them with the skills and tools to evolve into dynamic leaders with the ability to innovate and transform their future organizations. While Professor Gargano has tremendous expertise in leadership theory and practice, it's his genuine demeanor and sincerity toward students that make him an exceptional instructor. It is no wonder he is one of our students' favorite professors. The Tisch Institute is grateful to have Professor Gargano on the team and could not imagine a better person to develop our future leaders in the field of sport management.
Margaret Troquille - Mentorship Program Liaison, WMWO Chamber of Commerce
"I heard back from many of the mentors/board members. To say they were beyond excited and blown away to have been a part of this session is minimizing. There were so many nuggets throughout that really resonated and challenged each one of us. I saw about 5 of the mentors who participated at a brunch this morning and they are still talking about our coaching call and so excited that you have joined us in this journey."
Claire Stefanelli - Digital Platforms Manager, Tennessee TitansÂ
"I was fortunate to have Chris Gargano as my professor while I studied at NYU. Once I graduated, I was even more fortunate to have Gargano as a supervisor at the New York Jets. Here, I was able to see his practices on display – each employee below him felt seen, appreciated, and driven. Now, I am grateful to have Gargano as a leadership mentor."
Alessandro Gherardi - Partnership Manager USA, Lega Serie A
"The workshop is an intensive journey into the pillars of leadership. While the workshop covers principles of leadership, its true purpose is that of prompting the participants to relate to those principles, thereby finding themselves, as individuals and as leaders. I would recommend it to those who want to be better leaders today, and to those who might never want to become leaders in their professional life, but who are faced with inevitable leadership questions in their lives. All of this to say that this is a workshop for everyone and anyone. Attendees with goals ranging from wanting to become the CEO, to wanting to become a more empathetic friend or parent. Depending on one’s objective, everyone will get something different out of this workshop, but always something valuable."
Jazmin Severino - Lead System Support Specialist, New York Jets
"I am so honored to have been selected for Gargano's pilot Leadership workshop. You can tell how passionate Chris is about this and his optimism is truly contagious. I have applied the knowledge I gained from our sessions and am feeling so much more comfortable pushing myself to say what I need to say. Being invited to the group seriously woke something up in me and since we got so many tips on what it takes to be a great leader, I am now consciously applying them on a day-to-day basis to make sure that I lead my employees in the right direction."
John Mentzer - CEO, ETC Building & Design
"There was a fantastic energy and participation from all members of our group. Chris’ knowledge on leadership was evident through the sharing of his experiences. His encouraging words and comments made it an experience for which everyone wanted to participate. We had leaders from every stage in their careers and the content was relative to the entire group."
Keith Bahnsen -Â Ticket Sales Operations & Service, New York Jets
" I was fortunate enough to be part of The Gargano Leadership Group’s workshop during my time at the New York Jets. Out of all the countless seminars and workshops I’ve participated in throughout my time as an undergrad as well as more recently in my professional career, I was completely amazed at how well-run, organized, informative and engaging each of the sessions was. Chris’ ability to light up a room and capture an audience’s attention is something not many people have the ability to do. Chris kept our group heavily engaged by not only sharing his own life experiences and factual research, but by also allowing each of us to share and analyze our experiences as leaders and future leaders.
Josh Miller -Â Director of Construction, ETC Building & Design
"The benefit from attending was much more than I realized I would get out of it. The energy, it was contagious. Also, Chris was engaged, taking notes, and referring back to previous comments we had made and tailoring the presentation around those comments."
Michael Essrig - Founder & President, ETC Building & Design
"I invited our 8 partners to Chris' leadership event and the response was unbelievably positive. Each one said they walked away with so much more knowledge about their outlook on leadership vs. management. I have noticed they are interacting with their staff in a much more professional and supporting way. I suspect it's also translating to their personal lives as well. I would highly recommend Chris Gargano's course to any company that wants to improve their leadership and take their company to the next level."
Sandy Khaund - Founder & CEO, Credenza
"Of all the people I've met in the last 10-20 years, Chris Gargano is truly one of the most genuine, thoughtful people I've ever met. We've had many marathon conversations on leadership, organizational dynamics, and the art of creating effective teams. I always walk away with my mind racing with self-examination and thoughts on how to be better at everything related to my role as a manager."
Ohlone College Baseball Team
"His talk on leadership/grit is incredible. Thank you Chris, for taking time out of your schedule. This meant a lot to us."
