Self-confidence and assertiveness are two skills that are crucial for success in life. If you don’t feel worthy, and/or you don’t know how to express your self-worth when communicating with others, life can be very painful. These skills will provide opportunities and benefits to your participants in their professional and personal lives.
The PCSkills: Assertiveness and Self-Confidence workshop will give participants an understanding of what assertiveness and self-confidence each mean (in general and to them personally) and how to develop those feelings in their day-to-day lives. These skills will encompass many aspects of your participant’s lives and have a positive effect on all of them.
Who Should Attend: Auditors who would like to build their self-confidence and utilize their assertiveness more effectively (NASBA Field of Study: Personal Development).
I attended your presentation on Crucial Communications which was absolutely great! Thanks for being the instructor. You are an amazing instructor and are so lively with the audience.

Thank you for leading the session on Rethinking the Audit Process. I enjoyed it a lot as you were able to engage participants throughout the day to keep it interesting and educational at the same time. Thanks again and I hope to attend and I hope to attend other trainings that you lead in the future.

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.

St. Louis IIA - Fraud Auditing & Practical Ethics
I’ve been a member of the IAFCI since 1996 and had the pleasure to attend the IAFCI Training Conference in Fort Worth last month.
I really enjoyed your presentations on “ Practical Ethics part 1 & 2”. It was hands-down the best ethics session I have ever attended.

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.
Fraud Risk Assessment Attendee - Boston IIA March 2017
The Practical Ethics course was extremely interactive and encompassed many different subjects and situations. It was very interesting and helpful to hear several different perspectives on these issues and made you think of how you would respond in specific situations and why. I can definitely take some of the thinks I learned in this class and apply them in real-life situations.

“Thank you for the wonderful presentation, it was engaging, thought provoking and I absolutely loved the synergy in the room !! I have finally taken the time to read my notes to reinforce the conversation’s leveraged from your multiple presentations….” – Attendee, St Louis IIA, Fraud Auditing and Practical Ethics

Danny is a great speaker and the review of the audit process is critical because many times, we might think we are being valuable to our institution, but we have some areas that we may lack. The discussions with the audience were helpful because I got to hear similarities and differences among audit shops because everyone has certain ways that they conduct their processes. As still being fairly new to internal audit, this session really opened my eyes more to the audit process and the ways that we should carry ourselves among our colleagues in the institution.
