Getting my existing issue shaped so that I could actually put it into action The most important things I learned during this workshop, was how to overall further develop my Gold Award plan. Furthermore, I learned how to develop a team, and specify my issue. |
When asked If a friend wanted help planning their Gold Award, would you recommend this workshop? Yes or no? What would you tell them about your experience??
|
I would recommend this workshop. I would tell them that by the end of it, I had not only a clear understanding of what I wanted to do, but had access to tools and resources guiding me through the entire process. I think that the tutorials, "bridge-the-gap," and formatting of the documents had been especially helpful. I would tell them it really helps to form all of your thoughts into an actual plan. |
I would recommend this workshop to a friend, I would tell her this workshop helped to further develop my plan. And it would also help create a stronger root cause issue, along finding target audience. I would tell them it really helped me get my gold award started. |
