Military Leadership Training Program Participant Feedback
“Thank you again for an amazing three days. I've never enjoyed a training so much - nor learned more from one. The productive self-reflection, the swimming in personality and social psychology, and the bonding with such a great group of people leave me feeling energized. Which, I suppose, reinforces that I must be an extrovert after all. I wish I could do this every day!”
“This has been some of the best leadership training in my 29 years of government service. I’m better aware of areas I must work on. I’m motivated to use and apply everything I’ve learned.”
“The best leadership class I have had in 18+ years as an Army civilian. I needed this 15 years ago. [The] dynamic and great instructional duo caused me to think seriously about how I think and what I model.”
“Excellent course, I gained a lot of insight and learned new methods for effective communication and mentoring.”
“Elise Yanker and Brian Tarallo are outstanding facilitators!”
“I have worked with Collaborative Consulting and Elise for the past 14years. She has been an incredible partner in building two different, incredibly impactful, nationwide leadership programs and in providing expert coaching to many of our executives. Elise has taken great care in getting to know our organization and its culture and always takes that into consideration when collaborating to craft solutions. I feel blessed to learn from and work with Elise and her team, and I would recommend them without hesitation!”
