After a two-day seminar, our attendees remained in their seats wanting more from
Dr Atkins. His direct, yet challenging approach to presenting topics seemed to
mesmerize the participants. Many very lively discussions were part of our
workshop’s context. Personally, I am very interested in re-booking this type of
experience every year for new leaders to undergo!
