“Courage really is essential for leaders and managers, isn’t it? I attended the workshop you gave in San Jose for CAMP last year and I’ve been using your method ever since, as well as training my library assistants to use it. What a difference! I actually look forward to appraisals now, even when there are opportunities for improvement to discuss. I wish more people had attended your class, but I feel lucky to have benefited from being in a small group – it was more like a seminar. Thanks for helping me become a more effective manager.”
— Molly Westmoreland, Senior Librarian, San Jose Public Library
