For over 25 years, I have experienced several incentive trips that Dahlton has organized. First as an employee with Spherion and now as the host as the owner of MOVEMENT, where we provide an incentive trip for our top performers every year.
Without a doubt, Dahlton and her teams are the gold standard of event/incentive planners. She is meticulously detail-oriented and highly-organized. Nothing is overlooked, starting from the first planning meeting that begins 11 months prior to the event until the final survey results are tabulated by those who attended.
I believe that incentive trips are one of the most important things a company can do to motivate, retain and build a positive culture for its employees. With Dahlton, we know our events will always be fantastic and our employees and guests who attend will feel that they have been pampered and appreciated for the hard work that they do!

We have had the distinct pleasuring of working with PROfound Planning for the last 10+ years in coordinating our company’s very exclusive President’s Club annual event.
PROfound has been instrumental in presenting destination ideas, developing creative ways to thematically recognize and reward our highest performers at these events, and ensuring that every detail is taken care of at the selected resorts…all within a finite budget!
These events are given the highest ratings by our top performers year after year and help drive excellence in our company year-round. I would highly recommend PROfound Planning to any organization looking to create a superior event for their colleagues and guests.
Had the pleasure of producing a multi-day event with the PROfound Planning team at a property that was new to me. Dahlton’s relationships with the venue and knowledge about the industry were a great asset to the overall planning process and afforded the internal corporate team the ability to focus on content strategy, without getting weighed down with the day-to-day hotel communications and operational planning. When it came time to rock, Dahlton’s team made sure every detail was attended to, and the attendee experience was well orchestrated. Looking forward to working with Dahlton, Ruth and the full PRO team on many events to come.

Working with Dahlton, Ruth, and the Profound Planning team has been a valuable partnership. Profound handles many logistical details with poise and helps ensure our events run smoothly.

I have worked with Dahlton for over 12+ years with two different organizations. Dahlton and I were employed by the same company where Dahlton was responsible for all meeting\event planning, budgeting, venue selection and event oversight. I attended multi-day off-site Executive meetings Dahlton coordinated with as few as 20 people in addition to our Annual Performance Forum in various countries with as many as 400 attendees. I was always amazed at the flawless coordination and execution of the events Dahlton lead for the organization. Hence, when I joined my current organization and wanted to implement an Annual Performance event for our top producers I knew just the person to call!

I worked closely with Dahlton over the years both as an contractor and an employee and her ability to design, plan, and execute our company incentive events and meetings was simply superb. Her creativity and attention to every detail was the key in creating positive company experiences that our associates talked about all year long and worked very hard to return the next year. She understands budget accountability and there were never any surprises. Most importantly, her understanding of our operating philosophy and corporate culture created rewards and events that generated real shareholder value.

I’ve worked with Dahlton on many events as a CFO, a presenter and a participant. As CFO, I could count on Dahlton to manage her budget with the utmost focus on value and cost – she never went over budget and always delivered a quality event. As a presenter, she was supportive and organized and always had the necessary tools available to make the presentation easy to deliver and informative for the participants. As a participant, I always had fun! I would hire Dahlton again to run a great event.

I have worked with Dahlton over number of years and I must say she is one of the most impressive, creative, and reliable individuals I have had the privilege to be associated with. Her event planning skills along with her incredible ability to organize multiple events into a seamless end product was irreplaceable. As the Chief Human resources officer at SFN Group I personally relied on Dahlton to strengthen our Talent Development initiatives with creative team building and team development exercises. This is a unique approach Dahlton has mastered and has found a way to deliver in any event she organizes. Her ability to work with all levels in our organization was impressive.
Her Business Management strengths helped us deliver programs to the organization at the highest value, on-time and on budget. I never had to worry that we would come up short!
