Excellent. It will help me both at work and at home.
I loved this training. The example scenarios were applicable to real life. We took away specific actionable areas for improvement.
I personally found this really helpful, not just as an individual, but for us as a management team, to understand one another.
Sharon was fantastic at keeping the training on track and everyone focused. She was understanding and extremely knowledgeable.
