  • "  I was able to develop an action plan to deal with two coaching situations specific to my needs. This will help me put the training to use as soon as I get back into the office.  "

  • "  Small class was definitely advantageous. I learned much more than anticipated as we had one-on-one training with only three in the class.  "

  • "  Good balance of theory, role playing, video learning and opportunity to discuss real life scenarios in context of the course.  "

  • "  I thought the course was very good because it covered a relevant, hands-on approach to coaching. There were a wide variety of tools and approaches you could use for various situations. I especially appreciated the "I Speak" self-evaluation which will be useful in managing up, down and laterally.  "
