“The course was the most effective coaching/mentoring training I've had. I actually walked away with tools that I'm ready to implement to be a more effective leader. The effectiveness was because it not only provided concepts/theory, but gave tools and then gave opportunity to practice use of those tools during the class..” –GS-14, Chief
