LGM Testimonials

Pod

The LGM intensive leadership course enabled me to adopt best practices, and truly sharpen my skills in a cross agency environment.  The Return on Investment (ROI) session alone was an invaluable exercise in efficiency which made us all look at our departments through a fiscal lens.  The instructors were the best: their unreserved candidness made for a rich learning environment.
