Thank you for including topics such as Building Trust. Trust is an important element of any successful Team and is a reason why some employees begin to look for employment elsewhere when they don’t trust Leadership. And thank you for including Varied Backgrounds and Worldviews and Engaging Diversity as a topics because they are very important elements of a Team that should be considered when hiring employees.

Dr. Arrington makes difficult material seem easy. He made several days of online material seem like nothing. I looked forward to hearing his words of wisdom in a fun and non-threatening environment. He always made himself available to answer questions and bounce ideas. Also, he practices what he preaches. Even though there were some technical difficulties, he was able to quickly resolve it and was fair about providing adequate time to complete the course to make up for the delay caused by the technical difficulties. I was sad to see this course end as he really felt like a mentor in my brain. A very worth while course to take. Valuable lessons about conflict, trust, and other important qualities every leader should have.
