Testimonials

You are quite skilled in public speaking, and our employees thoroughly enjoyed the event. Information regarding personal protection has a far greater impact on an audience when it comes from an individual who is well respected for his or her expertise and personal experience.

- Lisa King, Director of Human Resources, Y. Hata & Co.

Several Managers that I spoke with after the presentation remarked that they had no idea that the keys to preventing workplace violence are: Knowledge, Respect and Communication. Yet, they all agreed, "It just makes so much sense." Now that we are more knowledgeable about Workplace Violence, it is our hope that if and when we are placed in a difficult situation, we will be better equipped to deal with such a crisis.

- Wendy Fitzgerald, Human Resources Representative, Hawaiian Waikiki Beach Hotel

Your presentation style and sense of humor made for a very effective briefing. Although we only had an hour with you, you left the staff with a lot to think about and to consider.

- Andrew K. Poepoe District Director, U.S. Small Business Administration
