Thomas and Nana were very passionate and open organizers, they shared personal stories that immediately reduced the long distance between us. I felt connected throughout the entire program.
...
I am so impressed (which is hard). The learning pathway was skillfully done. I also really liked the design of the lunch breaks. I also liked that I had two/three hours in the morning before the programme to prepare and to do other day-to-day stuff for my job.
...
Spot on stuff, amazingly innovative, came as very friendly Directors, down to earth. The content was also brilliant. Thank you, Nana & Thomas.
