"The leadership program was excellent - on a scale from 0 to a 10, a 10!! I acquired new skills to help me professionally and personally with setting goals and accomplishing things in a more timely and consistent manner. I learned improved strategies with facilitating more effective meetings, better delegation skills, identifying priorities, setting deadlines and timelines and improving the language of specificity. I would absolutely recommend this program. This is a program that is so beneficial to program Directors. Wish we had it sooner. It really helps the Director to mange resources and personnel more effectively. Great resources."

"I would rate the program overall a 95 out of 100. I specifically liked how the program focused on each person as an individual. It allowed each person to dig deeper into their strengths, weaknesses and issues that are holding them back from business and most importantly personal success. Yes, I would recommend this program to anyone seeking to improve themselves. The timing for me was perfect, having just completed my MBA. The program covers ideas and topics not covered in my graduate degree that are essential."

"This program was excellent. I gained a lot of knowledge to use in my leadership role. I learned ways to implement being a leader and making my staff accountable. I would definitely recommend the program. The instructor was able to "teach" and "explain" the aspects of the program. Thanks, Laurie!"

"The Future Leaders program was excellent. I learned that coaching an employee can be fun and positive, and how to coach an employee who isn't meeting standards without being negative. I learned about what I need to work on to be a successful leader, as well as in my personal life. I really like the fact that Laurie included herself in a lot of the topics and shared examples of her experiences as a leader.”

"I received a lot of very timely and useful tools from this program that I will continue to use throughout my career. There are too many changes I have made to fit into this small response box. From time management to understanding when a conversation becomes crucial and how to handle that. I appreciated two main things. The additional resources provided so that I could continue learning about a subject and the in class atmosphere that allowed for open flowing conversations. I believe I can now handle most situations with tact and professionalism. I can hold people accountable now as well as have that crucial conversation. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone willing to continue learning throughout their career. It was very helpful. It exceeded my expectations. Thank You!!!"

I did not realize all the wonderful tips and advice that I would learn and actually be able to contribute to my own life! In work and outside of work!”
