“If I summon the modifiers I’d use to describe that ‘special teacher’ who first inspired me, they read like my idea of a bestseller: warm; personable; great listener; knowledgeable; global perspective; passionate; wise; and demanding high standards. Elaine Fogel brings each of those qualities to the forum as a presenter. Her interactive presentation on branding integrated a broad range of data, anecdotal illustrations, deep understanding, and more than a dash of humor. She brought all of this information to a meaningful conclusion — and all I wanted was more! Elaine is that rare teacher who leaves me hungry to continue learning, applying the lessons, and developing my skills so that my organization’s clients will benefit. I loved her workshop and will profit from its lessons for years to come!”
