Comments from Past Participants
“ It actually exceeded my expectations. This course
was filled with fresh material and approaches. I will
recommend this program to my managers, as these
concepts often involve cross-functional elements.
This was a thoroughly enjoyable program. I found the
content to be relevant and came away with a number
of new tools to evaluate and measure my products,
my competitors, and my markets. In my mind, this
is how to measure the value of a course—how you
USE the tools provided.”
