Overall an excellent session. Group was the perfect size, Linda was very engaged and encouraged purposeful discussion. Was accommodating, friendly but very informative.

The training was great. I feel that the 8-10 participants was an ideal # for the interaction and break-out sessions. The trainer didn't just read off slides. He introduced new, relevant topics and provided context to other material.

There was so much information and so many tools I have learned that I plan to incorporate in my career plan moving forward. The course and the how it was instructed, has me excited about using what I have learned. Cassandra was amazing, her positive energy and wealth of knowledge made this course so much fun!This is the best AMA session I have taken to date.

The course was labeled for Women, but really take a some content out and switch it up an it is mostly gender neutral. This could be marketed better.

This course was excellent. The small group and virtual environment created a more intimate learning experience compared to a classroom setting.

Her energy and enthusiasm were great and made the course be even better than otherwise with another instructor. The first few hours of the course were more along the lines of what I had expected, in terms of framing the unique challenges we face as women leaders. Whilst I can understand the approach of working through broader influencing etc techniques and applying the lens relevant to our grouping, it would have been good to have had more of an emphasis/lens along the lines of the initial pitch/first few sessions.It provides a useful way to think about the specific challenges we face as female leaders and how we can approach these. But it didn't really take it to the next level in terms of addressing them/clear strategy going forward - eg the talk about your brand was super relevant to us all, and we could have spent a lot more time on that and testing it out with others in the class rather than other parts of the course.

It was Nellie, the facilitator that made a huge difference to the course. She is very motivating, empowering and and very personal.Nellie is the best facilitator across all courses I've taken. She will take the time to answer any questions you have and deliver the course material in a way that is most easily understood and you can connect to reality.

This is a soft skill development course, instructor has great experience and explain all questions from the trainee. And she is inspiring and motivating me to look from people point of view and deep thinking how to position myself and personal branding my leader role. Very good in depth discussion. She is inspiring, energetic and able to answer all the questions from class. What is your personal brand? What is your next 5 years plan in your career, You will find inspiring answer here.

The content of the course was useful but maybe for someone at a more junior level (ie . a new manager)Nellie was really engaging. She kept the content interesting and relevant. I appreciated that she didn't stick "on book" too much. This is a good course for new women leaders who need a boost in confidence.

The course material was a little too "intro" for my current role, but I think it would be a great fit for someone newly stepping into a leadership position (or aspiring to do so). A more advanced course would be interesting for seasoned female leaders.

Nellie was great. She was engaging, thought-provoking and very informative. The material was presented in such a way that it felt like more of a conversation, rather than having the material book just read aloud. She made it very comfortable and easy to engage and be vulnerable in an unfamiliar setting. Thank you.

I enjoyed the interactions and the way the course was delivered by Nellie. It was personalized to what I wanted to take back and implement. Very happy with the outcome and I am confident that I will implement and be more aware on things happening within and around me! I loved how Nellie brought us all together and made us feel very comfortable in sharing and learning. Each of us got what we wanted from the course. She was able to relate to us in a personal level. I really appreciate how much she gives herself to the material to make it more relevant to us! Good job!!! Appreciate her dedication to all of us and our personal and professional growth!Fantastic program if you want to become more aware of yourself and your professional surrounding!

I had first taken a course with Nellie in 2009 (Assertiveness for Women) and was in awe of her passion for the subject. Nellie made the course relevant to all attendees by incorporating her own personal experiences. She is definitely an inspiration to all women. I look forward to taking other courses facilitated by Nellie.

The facilitator was excellent however the course lacked in that I was expecting more specific information that women in upper management might face. The other participants, even though they were interesting and very impressive were not at the management level I was hoping to network with.

Really enjoyed this course I have already recommened it to every women I know. I enjoyed Nellie's excitment and knowledge she was able to make the content relavent to me and my job. She shared her experiance and allowed everyone in the class to share as well we not only learnt from the material but as well from eachother. Over all I enjoyed the course. I was excited to learn and excited to get back to work to apply what I had learned. I also enjoyed the food provided as well as the facility.

The books were hard to follow only because there were multiple workbooks. It would be easier to follow if materials were consolidated into one workbook.

The course and instructor Nelly were absolutely phenomenal!! I speak for myself and the rest of my class that this session was very inspiring! She is truly AMAZING in her ability to present the material and keep everyone engaged. Do not lose her as a CMC instructor as she is truly inspirational and phenomenal at facilitating with true pure passion.

The workbook and course book should be combined - not sure what the reason is to have them separate. It resulted in a lot of page turning.
