IIA All-Star Book Signing, October 2015

  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.

“It was great meeting you last week in your training class. I really loved your presentation and content and how you made the course very interactive.  I found your session to be very powerful.” – Attendee, CAE

I recently attended the Soup to Nuts: The Fraud Risk Assessment Process class in Boston. I would like to share that this was one of the very few classes I truly enjoyed as it exceeded my expectations both in content and experience as a “student”. The material for the class is shared prior to the class which allows you to better prepare for the topics of discussion. I related to the material both on a professional and personal level – fraud can happen anywhere! The class was very interactive giving everyone an opportunity to learn and network with one another. Danny Goldberg, the instructor, is an extraordinary instructor. He engages and challenges everyone, thinks outside the box by looking for ways to ensure everyone’s energy (both physical and mental) is up the whole time, by having stories and examples that everyone can relate to, and even offers prizes for best participants/teams as an additional incentive. I would love and look forward future classes taught by Danny G.!

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.  

“First of all I want to thank you for the training provided, for your energy and for every single explanation given with a lot of patience. The training was very useful, especially for a person like me with no IT experience at all.”

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. Senior Auditor Decatur, IL IIA Class – February 2016

“I wanted to thank you for your time teaching the class. I enjoyed how engaging it was and thought I got a lot of information out of it.” “Thank you for making it so fun! I honestly wasn’t expecting to laugh so much, but I really appreciate that you kept the training lighthearted and engaging.”  

In our Assessing Risk class last week, I had a gentlemen attend and state that he attended a similar class of ours seven years ago and it gave him a ton of insight on how they eventually set up their ERM program – always good to know that you are making a difference!    

“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

I enjoyed the class. Your delivery was unique/informal from other presentations I have been a part of and it was effective in delivering the message. I got a lot out of the last two and a half days.
