Recent students say:

     "The class was enjoyable, well taught and perfectly relevant, but the interaction with the instructor put it through the roof.
Whether you are nearing the terminal edge of creativity or helming a massive vessel, product ownership could clear the fog.
     A cooperative, multi-front, blitzkrieg of an approach smashes stagnation, analysis paralysis and the competition.
Russell's real-world application of material made crystal clear the depth of his understanding and field experience.
     Take the plunge and in two days your rewired neurons will have an increased ability to produce consistent value in your company"
