"Absolutely fantastic. As a new manager, attending this event made me feel so much more prepared for my new responsibilities, and I honestly feel like my managerial skills have jumped ahead by about 4 years. I've already returned to the manual and tool kit several times since I got back. In particular, I found the coaching section to be most helpful and the KPI and Metrics framework really simplified a daunting task for me."
-- Manager of End-User Services, Planned Parenthood Federation of America
