It helped to have break out sessions to discuss real issues and processes from our current positions to determine how we could apply what we were learning.

2 Good presentations Two out of the five presenters held my attention. I really thought that Shelly and Justin's material and presentation was the most thought provoking. 2nd would be Elora's presentation. The others felt like they were just reading their slides.

Mark Hacker was a great host Mark Hacker was a great host, presenter, trainer. I could understand best when he gave real-life situations. I do recommend the material give more examples with full scenario outcomes (more examples of what they had come up with).

The facilitator knew her stuff The facilitator knew her stuff. I am a person who needs time to take in concepts so it was a bit hard for me to follow sometimes. I wish there was more time or maybe a cheat sheet of terms we should become familiar with before starting the class. Some persons did not have any issues grasping the concepts so it was more a personal issue. The breakout sessions were a good format. I enjoyed those.

Engaging content and facilitation Had an amazing training with Karen this week on succession training. She is exteremely knowledgable and built in some levity and humor that helped to break up the content. She was also very mindful of breaks needed to reflect and reatin the information. She provided a ton of exmaples which allowed the content really come to life. She went the extra mile to use words and phrases that are a major part of pur company which not only made us feel understood but also cared for. I highly recommend Karen for succession training. After leaving this session I feel that I have a very solid understanding of how to apply the content in a meaningful way.
