"This program was outstanding. I am more focused on prioritizing tasks and planning my day rather than multi-tasking and being into so many different things at a time. I can actually block off a portion of my day and "eat the frog". I fully believe that attending his program will help me tremendously as I take over as President/CEO of Allegany County Teachers FCU. The program was a realistic insight into what "Leadership" is today and how important it is to lead by example and be more focused on the success of your team member because their success is success for the credit union. Laurie is phenomenal. She is exceptionally knowledgeable in this area and offers a different perspective....one that I have always believed in."

"I received a lot of very timely and useful tools from this program that I will continue to use throughout my career."
"I received a lot of very timely and useful tools from this program that I will continue to use throughout my career. There are too many changes I have made to fit into this small response box. From time management to understanding when a conversation becomes crucial and how to handle that. I appreciated two main things. The additional resources provided so that I could continue learning about a subject and the in class atmosphere that allowed for open flowing conversations. I believe I can now handle most situations with tact and professionalism. I can hold people accountable now as well as have that crucial conversation. I would definitely recommend this program to anyone willing to continue learning throughout their career. It was very helpful. It exceeded my expectations. Thank You!!!"
"This program was excellent. I feel that I have become a better listener and am more thoughtful in how I handle conversations and especially conflict."
"This program was excellent. I feel that I have become a better listener and am more thoughtful in how I handle conversations and especially conflict. I have learned how better to handle important conversations with tact and remove as much "emotion" as possible. Additionally, I have learned how important it is for employees to hear feedback on a regular basis and have made more attempts to provide without being asked. I have also been more consistent with holding myself accountable and doing what I say I am going to do. The interaction and open conversations about various scenarios and challenges was the best part of the program. Using techniques in real situations rather than following along in a textbook. It's a practical program that is easy to follow and apply to real-world situations."
