I recently attended your webinar on “Managing & Motivating the Seven Most Challenging Employees”. I have attended many presentations on performance management, and yours was definitely the best. Your website is a wonderful resource, and I plan to visit it regularly.

Our conversations have been really helpful. This morning, during a meeting, I realized how different I am now. I can offer opinions without hesitation, and I no longer take things so personally. The same people who used to intimidate me don’t bother me at all. Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words.

Your suggestions for handling a very aggressive colleague were spot on, as always. I was able to discuss my concerns calmly and stay focused on the business issues. In the past, she has been able to throw me off track, but not this time. Thanks for the help.
