I remember you said that most women tend to be more comfortable in perfecting their plan before taking actions. I am one of these women, but I realized that the lack of confidence to take actions would make us miss many opportunities! The most important thing is that your seminar helped me find my passion in my heart deeply.

"The Youth Leadership Learning Event with 70 High School students from our school was a positive success. The school administration was extremely satisfied with the event and the buzz and positive feedback from staff and students that occurred afterwards. Students were engaged throughout the day and the case study analysis provided them with an opportunity to work together and solve the problem at hand. Also, the interaction they had with your panel of community leaders was tremendous. Further, the way the case was set up, it reinforces what the Toronto District School Board is implementing, and that is inquiry based learning. Thanks again, I am grateful to you for taking a major part in organizing this event and hope to have you join us again in future."- L. Panakagos, Assistant Curriculum Leader: Coop and Careers, David and Mary Thomson Collegiate, Toronto.

Effective teamwork, communication and the ability to present are so important and your program helps with that. Congrats on putting this on and well done." ~ Tim Lang, President and CEO, Youth Employment Services, Ontario.
