“I enjoyed the training on Fraud and Project Management. You have a great way of keeping people engaged and interested without putting them on the spot. I found a lot of your material interesting.” -Attendee, Audit Manager
St. Louis IIA - Fraud Auditing & Practical Ethics
I really enjoyed and greatly appreciate your delivery of the message you were trying to convey. You really made the meeting very enjoyable and upbeat. I hope to attend or see you again in the future. I was just reaching out to you and letting you know what I thought of the book that I purchased from you at the meeting.
I really enjoyed the aspect of the book that you kept it in a narrative and story style. I think it made it a very quick read and also puts the skills and practices that are referenced in the book as well as your training into real world scenarios. I also really like how each chapter was broken out after the chapter with the skills sets, messages, or concepts listed instead of like a textbook format throughout the chapter. I thoroughly enjoyed reading the book. I have recommended the book to my supervisors that I think this book and your trainings would be very beneficial to all of my co-workers.
I really appreciated you letting me feel so included in your discussion and presentation. Being a younger professional who thinks they have a very strong soft skills set I still feel like I learned and took away a lot from your book and training. I hope to continuously improve my people centric skill set and hope to someday be in a position where I can make an impact as broad as you have.

The Fraud training session yesterday was really great. You have a great way of providing good, relevant information while also being very entertaining and keeping the group engaged. That is not an easy feat, especially during those all day sessions so thanks again.

I attended your Project Management seminar today and found it very interesting and motivating! Would you please send me the project planning and status templates that you referenced today? Feel free to include any other template along these lines and throughout the process that may be helpful.
I look forward to attending other seminars that will be available later this year.

It was such a pleasure attending your class on yesterday, a job well done. You mentioned in the class that there were several spread sheets and charts available if we were interested. If you don’t mind I would like copies of the doc’s.
Thanks and I am sure I will be attending another one of your dynamic sessions.

I just wanted to drop a quick note saying thank you for yesterday’s training. The group was the most genuine and engaged I’ve experienced – very neat to be a part of it. In our small group discussions, it was so rich in dialogue – I will use it in my daily life many times over.
