Graduate Testimonials

TSB backs up their commitment to the success of free market enterprise with their own time. They have introduced us to new ways of looking at our business. I truly view our relationship as a working partnership, which gives us great confidence.
Mark Davis Bailey – President and CEO, The Original Pancake House

The courses and presenters were amazing. I would highly recommend the TSB academy to anyone looking for more insight/training into business including all aspects from accounting to marketing to managing. I was unable to attend the first quarter of the year due to being out-of-state and relocating back for work, but Pamela was able to keep me involved by taping the sessions so I could keep pace with the rest of the class. TSB will really go above and beyond to make sure anyone signed up would be included on the learning material even if you were not able to attend and that really speaks volumes. Thank you again for a great experience!
Josh Hanson- US EcoLogic

The Texas Security Bank Academy is one of the many reasons TSB continues to be the “Entrepreneurs” banking partner. Regardless of your level of sophistication the Academy is extremely beneficial; not only by teaching you new SOP’s but reinforcing some of the best practices you may be overlooking in your company. Thank you to Pamela, the TSB team, and all instructors for putting this Academy together.
Robert Mixon- Landshark Express

Through the TSB Academy, I have gained so many new tools and resources to better myself, my staff and the business. Texas Security Bank is going above and beyond to ensure their customers’ success. Thank you TSB!

Great curriculum that offers real world training and guidance for busy executives navigating the everyday challenges of business!
Don Brooks – Vice President, US Ecologic & Multifamily Services

I would absolutely recommend TSB Academy for leadership at any size organization. It is a comprehensive course that provides a full spectrum of knowledge on everything from accounting principles to strategic planning to growth. I was able to bring back exercises to my organization that I could apply to my financial understanding and decision-making.
Kyle Brigham – Director of Strategy, Marcel Digital

As a small business owner of two companies, I’ve struggled understanding the business fundamentals and how they apply to my business for many years. Now I see the light. Thank you for this rare and personalized experience of entrepreneurship 101. I hope other young entrepreneurs find you early.
Heather Anderson - Broker & VP, REConcierges

Tempo enrolled six senior and mid-level managers in The TSB Academy a little over a year ago hoping to help them understand the financial performance of their respective divisions and to identify where they needed to improve their operational efforts to improve divisional results. The TSB program helped them, as non-financial executives, gain control of their operations and become highly conversant and comfortable with the world of balance sheets and income statements. The program took a commitment of time from their very busy schedules, but I can say without reservation that every one of them believe it was the most valuable training they have received in their professional careers.
David Gannon – President, Tempo, Inc.
