Hello-
My name is Ryan smith and I am the owner of Great Benefits USA a health and voluntary benefits agency. I have recently had the pleasure of going through the course of 15 invaluable laws of growth. When I discovered Ted Topkoff was leading this kind of information I reached out immediately.
I started these courses because my business is growing and I need to make sure that it does not out grow me. I have watched other people over the years only be able to do so much before they reached their peak in what ever business they were. I am making sure by growing personally this does not happen with me and my business.
As we walked through the chapters I had many lightbulbs go on, not because the information presented was new but because I had to think and focus on my own growth, my own character, and be responsible intentionally for myself. Doing these things is no easy task and you need a great facilitator who has experiences they can relate to yours and walk-through challenges of personal growth with you. Ted has this experience and brings it to each class with him in a relatable way that is thought provoking, fun, and has is enjoyable. Ted’s charisma, work ethic, and understanding of how to coach people shows through in his teaching style that is very relatable.
After finishing this book, I walk away with a different perspective of where to put my time and energy, making sure that I am doing everything I can to be the best I can bot some of the time but all of the time. These thoughts have a profound affect on how I interact with the 30+ agents I have working with me and the 200+ company partners we have. Continued development is a must as develop these people and relationships.
Don’t be afraid to participate and grow your self for the good of yourself!
With Best Regards,

I started his Personal Connect training course. I was not very confident in this field and needed some training and coaching. This course is WONDERFUL! Not only did we meet up weekly for discussion, but the Q&A is where we really got to some issues and answers! I am looking forward to going on to the next step in this series. Ted's ability to navigate the course with his real life experiences, made this course very enjoyable and I looked forward to each and every week. I now feel like I have the tools and practices needed , so I can be the leader needed on my team. I highly recommend Ted and his training for individuals or for your business to achieve your leadership potential. Comcast Tech Ops Business - JT
I’m not much for words so I’ll keep this brief. I want to start by saying that the information and insight I gained through this course was invaluable. Some of the principles feel like they are something you would know intuitively, but weren’t able to put words to (communication takes energy, duh), so I appreciated being able to articulate these concepts to others and better apply solutions to daily communications. All in all, I feel better prepared, more comfortable, and more confident with approaching new or difficult topics with my coworkers.
The guided notes you provided really helped to steer the reading and provide focus for what was important. Honestly, I do not think I would have made it all the way through the book without those! I really enjoyed the weekly meetups and conversation, getting to hear other peoples experiences with leadership and communication helped me feel more normal (nobody is perfect) in my day-to-day interactions with coworkers, managers, and even my partner!
I feel fortunate to have you as a resource and I’m very much looking forward to continuing my development with you! Thank you!
