Our presentation caused a real shift in my thought process. I had been conditioned to believe that we have to change our behavior first. Now I realize that with an analysis and improvement of my team’s attitude, I can predict their behavior and better control the outcome of my projects. This is a very valuable tool. Thanks so much Mark!
