People expressed their enthusiasm to me, and talked about how they were affected and inspired by the program. It was so interesting to learn about some of the neurological occurrences when we are in and out of the flow state. Additionally, we appreciated how you tailored the message to provide tips not only for senior leadership and managers, but also for individual contributors. Your presentation provided great information we can use immediately."
