Dr Marny Lishman crated an amazing space that not only was open, safe and caring, but gave insight into many different aspects of resilience.  She apprieciated different perspectives and opened discussions that were supported and wise.

The presentation was targeted and had the perfect balance of knowledge and reflection.

I would encourage this workshop for any team, especially those preparing of have gone through organisational change!
