You and what I learned from you left an indelible impression on me. Throughout my career journey thus far, the skills I have used most are what I learned from you in your intercultural and interpersonal communication classes during my first two years of college. In my executive leadership role in the financial services industry, I constantly find myself referring to what I learned from you and helping reinforce those concepts that are holistic, lasting and in many cases universal.

I thoroughly enjoyed the training series you delivered, and I came back to the office multiple times speaking about what we were doing in the sessions. Thank you for taking the time to be so thoughtful about the information you presented and meeting us where we were! Encouraging us to practice what we learned will make me more conscious about utilizing the skills. This was, I believe, the first training I have attended where moving and getting into groups and practicing skills was actually useful!
