Thank you for providing us insight about ourselves and how we can use this understanding to positively impact our workplace, as well as, our personal relationships.
Almost all of my conference after hour conversations at some point included a discussion of your session.
Thanks for providing an informative and entertaining session for us.

Just wanted to thank you for your class yesterday. As I told you, and everyone else agreed, you were able to balance just the right amount of being a dynamic speaker and providing real and nitty gritty information.
The class was lots of fun and yesterday was such an interesting day following the class. There was a great deal of humor used in playing with the information. It was all in fun and reinforcing what they had learned.
There was a lot of sharing and processing. The class was a great reminder to everyone to work together and embrace differences.
