Comments
from Audience:
You exceeded our expectations! I can't remember so much positive feedback from a group
following an outside presentation. I am feeling very good about where we are at versus
where we have come from. Thanks so much to The CLEMMER Group for helping us along our
"Road to Excellence."
- Senior Vice President, Canada, Laidlaw Education Services
"Thanks once again for the workshop, the
feedback I received was very positive. It was a short time frame
and you left everyone with the feeling that they wanted more (which is of course a great
compliment to you)."
- Planning Officer, Indian and Northern Affairs Canada
"We have access to everyone who speaks".
