What Certified Smart Growth Advisors are Saying
What did I learn? I took my inch deep understanding of the S curve and the tools; and deepened this knowledge immensely. How do I feel? Thankful for meeting all these amazing disruptors. Energized with new coaching ideas and tools. Grateful to join a new community.
Brigid McCormack
Whitney Johnson’s approach, the model, interactions with participants, organisation, energy and flow of the group and the Disruption Advisors team, the qualitative level of the cohort members [were very helpful]…basically, I truly believe in Smart Growth’s added value to organisations and the world.
Eva
The major components of the training (resources, agenda, time to have breakouts) and session scheduling were all top notch. Additionally, the direct interaction with the Disruption Advisors principals really made it feel special.
Henry Sobanet
Strong content. The trainers and community made it come alive.
