U.S. Department of Homeland Security,

I thought the program was excellent. I did get out of it that I need to try and listen better, and understand in a different format than what I am use too. I’m just not sure that the way it was promoted, is for Emergency Responders and I think it could be beneficial to anybody. I don’t think you should attention it just to Emergency Responders. This is a great leadership tool which I would highly recommend to any supervisory level or greater.
