“On behalf of the Georgia Leadership Institute for School Improvement (GLISI), I would like to thank you for the wonderful products you developed to address our organization’s liability concerns. The event signage language and recommendations around placement in the event space received rave reviews. Likewise, our team was extremely receptive to the proposed participant agreement. The brevity and customization of the document make the content more accessible and less intimidating to our participants. It also reflected the fact that you ‘get’ us. We are so appreciative of your sincere interest in our organization and work, and grateful to have benefited from your generosity and insights!”
