“The Winning Feedback program you conducted at the Attorney General's Office was excellent. You deftly combined your experience and philosophy with practical tips for providing effective and constructive feedback. You used your time efficiently and did a great job engaging the supervisors by capitalizing on their experience and expertise. The program should be mandatory for supervisors. Thank you.”
