I want to thank you for all you help at the South Central Conference in Little Rock last week. Your workshops were wonderful. I think the newcomers were very please with the first session. They obviously were impressed as they filled the other two presentations. The staff that attended from Topeka asked if you were ever available to come to Topeka and do some sessions for agency directors and other United Way locations.

I would like to express thanks to the Uncommon Individual Foundation for the presentation to the mentors involved in the Philadelphia Elementary Principal Intern Program that was held on June 1st. Your well-prepared presentation was enthusiastically received by our mentor principals. Your knowledge of mentoring and ability to interrelate mentoring with our particular program was outstanding. I appreciate the support of the Foundation in providing assistance to the School District of Philadelphia and look forward to an ongoing relationship.

Thank you for an interesting and thought-provoking presentation on mentoring. I think the participants enjoyed your program, and I and the other members of the TQM team certainly learned a lot. We plan on making our program much more informal than originally planned and everyone is much relieved. Please keep in touch. I'd love to continue to "pick your brain."

Your support and assistance in getting Philadelphia Futures "off the ground" has meant so much to me. The mentor training which you have so generously provided has been invaluable. Your trainer has generated fantastic feedback from both the CMS and IBM mentors. As you are well aware, positive communication is always gratifying; however, for a new organization, it is crucial.

This is just a little note to thank you again for the tremendous workshop you gave to the mentors group of the "Tell Them We Are Rising" program at Temple University. It was so comprehensive and down to earth. It is hard to believe that this was only the introduction to further workshops. Everyone was really impressed and also very much helped and encouraged to carry on. We are looking forward to the next step.

Thank you so much for the inspiring training workshop last Friday. I've been a giver and a taker of workshops for twenty year, and so I can be especially critical of both delivery style and content. You had a wonderful, calm, credible tone throughout, even with our potentially challenging audience. You listened and responded so graciously in incorporating people's ideas, suggestions, and challenges. I enjoyed the listening to you parts, the reading of the book parts, the working in pairs and small groups parts – a wonderful balance of participant techniques.

The year-long mentoring program was outstanding. The partnerships helped mentees see the possibilities in themselves and gave them experiences they otherwise would not have had.
