I just took part in the one hour Decision Driven! session you gave for XYZ employees and wanted to thank you for this. I can’t remember ever being so focused during a WebEx session, your approach and your presentation thereof really is transforming! (And I’m Swiss, I don’t exaggerate 😉 ) Now I just need to find a project to put this in action!
