"Jan, I so appreciate speakers like you who understand adult learning styles and engage in conversation with their audience, rather than simply talk at us! Your program on "Leader As Influencer"at the WSAE 2015 Convention was a masterful blend of thoughtful, high-level information with experiential learning. I really appreciated how well you understood your audience and how effectively you guided us on our own individual exploration of ourselves as leaders, offering opportunities for introspection as well as interaction with others in the audience. You gave me plenty to think about and new ways of viewing myself as a leader. As always, thank you for another great program!"
