Ragain, Allen Development

What The RAD Group’s clients are saying:


  1. “We had the RAD Group come in for two days and train our team in the skills of Crucial Confrontations.  The ‘training’ did not feel like training at all; instead it was about teaching us a new way of life.  The skills are universal and can be used in every part of your life.  Mike Allen and Michael Allen have a great knowledge base to draw from and make learning engaging.  Many returned after the training to share how they had already put the skills to work in their own life.  We look forward to working with the RAD Group on future training opportunities.”

  3. Site Behavior Based Safety Coordinator


  4. "When we needed to improve the leadership skills and teamwork of our operations management team we called on The RAD Group. They are seasoned professionals who understand our industry and our people. They diagnosed our problems, designed a program to address them, delivered the program and after three years, we are still getting return on our investment."

  6. "During the course of 2006 and 2007, The RAD Group facilitated Crucial Confrontations and Crucial Conversations training with all of our offshore and shore-based supervisory staff. This training had a significant positive impact on our operations. In addition to the immediate improvement we saw in the safety performance on the rigs, it also helped initiate a shift in the way we view safety and operational leadership of first-line management. The training was received very favorably by our personnel and the takeaways have proved beneficial to them in both their professional as well as personal lives. I am extremely pleased with the results Ron Ragain, Mike Allen, and the rest of the RAD team delivered for us."

  8. VP of Operations, Pride International, Inc.


  9. “The RAD Group has been used extensively by us in developing our personnel. Ron Ragain, the "R" in the RAD group, worked with me to develop specific training sessions for my personnel in R&D on topics ranging from Performance Management to Conflict Resolution. In all instances we experienced the RAD group as a professional organization with well structured learning materials, a fun informative teaching sharing environment with excellent time utilization yet allowing enough time for individuals to maximize their learning experience.”

  10. Johann Venter

  11. Director of Technology, Champion Technologies


  12. "Acquisitions are part of our company's strategy for growth. Having completed over 30 acquisitions over the last few years, assimilations to a common operating policy and safety culture is critical. The RAD Group has been instrumental in identifying potential roadblocks to our success and they have helped steer us toward meaningful investments in our human capital. Their industry experience and organizational analysis have made a very positive impact on our organization's safety and performance culture."

  13. David Schorlemer

  14. CFO, Stallion Oilfield Services


  15. “Our long-standing relationship with The RAD Group has been rewarding. From specialized consulting services, to team training, to development of customized programs - RAD has performed at an exceptional level. Their personnel have been embraced by our organization and the benefits of their work have been substantial.”
