“On behalf of the Frisco Association for the Arts, I would like to thank you for the great planning session you conducted for our Board of Directors. Your expert use of the “Thinking Hats” made short work of what otherwise would have been a long drawn out process. As a facilitator you were fun and engaging, which helped ignite a new and fresh approach for us. Thank you!”
