Larry’s presentation taught our IT group how to communicate clearly to save time and money in the workplace. He presented in a manner that was both humorous and entertaining, while still getting his message across. Larry can motivate and inform any audience with his charisma and wide span of knowledge. - Cynthia Castilla, President of Northwest Arkansas AITP
I’ve wondered for some time why managers are so reluctant to engage on risk, and I’ve come to believe that it’s because risk is boring – unless you’ve got a “live one” in front of you. So when I signed up for the session “Deadliest Catch: Risk Identification in the Vast Bering Sea,” I was hoping for something different – and I got it. This is a real keeper of an idea, and now part of our overall Risk Management methodology in our Service Management & Governance practice. - Cynthia Batty, TPI, View Cynthia`s Post from TPI`s Consider the Source Blog
