“EXCEL was a very good program. It allowed me to see where I was as a leader and also where I had the opportunity to make some changes. I am quiet by nature so I am always working to ensure my voice is heard even in tough situations. EXCEL taught me a lot about how to continue to lead and work to make changes at all times.”
“This program is excellent- a real crash course for leaders-to- be, that’s easy to fit into an already busy schedule. Highly recommended!”
“I was provided a wealth of valuable information to use at my agency. I use the tools I was provided with on a daily basis. I especially valued the opportunity to have a Coach.”
“Camp Joy was awesome. Peer advisory group and mentor created lasting relationships. The opportunity to do personal work through assessments and creating the PGP (Personal Growth Plan) were all very helpful.”
“It was a great experience! I am grateful for the opportunity and know it will be impactful for my career and work at my agency.”
“The entire experience was exceptional and exceeded my expectations. While I appreciated the knowledge development/functional skills focus, the self-discovery and development were of the greatest value.”
