FEEDBACK • Thank you for the self-study video course Practical Work Smarts for All which I enjoyed very much, and which met my expectations. • I appreciated that the course really was designed for 'all', and not just CPAs. Your presentation style is refreshingly accessible, and the ideas were thought-provoking. • Favourite and most helpful topics: meetings and prioritization • The video was interesting, instructor keeps it light hearted by putting jokes throughout. • Liked the humor throughout the webcast.Especially the consultant at the end, that is the ultimate double speak I ever heard. • Appreciated the comments about letters of recognition or the boss hosting their employees at his/her house. I think that goes along way with building a rapport with your staff and speaks to your leadership style. • I enjoyed the course. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and give actual examples! I can relate to them. I will definitely apply lots of them. • Interesting subjects, all make sense, I see some suggestions already applied on my company. Will be interesting to discuss with my colleagues • What I liked: Getting more out of meetings – more specifically the productivity ratio (1/n2) and the parking lot suggestion.
