September 1, 2015 Rochester IIA Meeting

“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.”  

“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 loved Danny’s session! He facilitated open discussion about corporate culture, which helped us all apply the lessons learned to our unique situations and organizations. NOTE: Overall Evaluation Score – 5.0/5.0  

Just wanted to extend thanks for your presentation on Communication. I found that session to be among the top three sessions of the week, including the keynote speakers. Attendee, People-Centric Skills: Communications Presentation

“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

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 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. Non-Auditor Attendee, Central North Dakota IIA April 2016  

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

  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.

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.
