Will Spokes
Founder & President
HMW Studio
I use a variety of assessment instruments in my practice but had not found a 360 I was happy with. Since CCL is obviously known industry-wide as the leader in 360s, I was definitely interested in getting a broader perspective of what was available to increase my toolset skills with clients. The CCL philosophy is really lovely and in the right spirit — using the instruments with absolute confidentiality and to support high-performance efforts … I literally put my experience into action the day after the workshop.
Amy Reece
Executive Coach
I walked away from this course not only knowing how to facilitate the assessment for teammates in our organization but with a much deeper understanding of myself as a leader. The course was thorough, extremely well-organized, and more than worth the time and resources it took to participate.
