The following comments, made by both men and women, refer to the
Emotional SMARTS® series of workshops.
“Some say you should not give top scores in order to leave room for improvement. This seminar has been provided at a very important time for me. Everything you have provided has touched me in some way. Thank you”. An IT Professional. (P. S. This individual rated each category at the highest possible level).
“Make it mandatory for all team leaders, managers, and executives.” An Information Technology (IT) Team Leader.
“I wish I had access to this information eight years ago. I would probably still be at a previous job.” Oil Field Service Representative, Energy Industry.
“I found Dr. June to be a very positive influence on the group and her enthusiasm left quite an impression. Her personal anecdotes added a lot as well as her flexibility in adjusting the program on a moment’s notice - as well as doing something extra - having us re-do the survey in six months. Dr. June struck me as a highly intelligent, accomplished individual who has had an impact on my life well beyond the objectives of the course. Due to job changes I was ready to take a lesser job and basically call it quits by looking for satisfaction elsewhere. She has stirred up my spark again and I am chomping on the bit to bring back the old me. Thanks Dr. June.” Financial Professional.
“Have everyone in Canada take the workshop. I appreciate it, thank you.” Oil Field Service Representative, Energy industry.
“Dr. June was awesome. Made it fun - was positive and compassionate.” Administrative Professional.

The following comments were made in a letter (well after the workshop) to a Curriculum Owner in an Information Technology Company.
“Hello ____, I just wanted to drop you a line on the Emotional SMARTS! Training I received recently. This has been one of the best courses I have taken in my 25 years with ___. It is my opinion that this should be a strongly suggested course for everyone, if not mandatory. This would be a great compliment to any career identity and development course in that once people realize where they should be in relation to skills, likes and dislikes, inspiration and family they can then learn how to be emotionally smart in dealing with the position, their contacts, themselves, and their family.
Dr. June Donaldson comes across as very honest, intelligent, humorous, likeable, knowledgeable and a very good presenter. I think I looked at my watch twice in the two days and that was because she mentioned the time.” An IT Professional.
“I wish to express my entire satisfaction for the one day seminar. The content attracted my attention from the beginning to the end. I classify it as a wake up call on emotion. Thank you.” An IT Professional.
“One day just doesn’t do justice.” An IT Professional.
“Dr. June Donaldson is a very enthusiastic instructor. She made this course fun and the information is very valuable in bettering relationships. She’ll be an outstanding Mediator!”. A Leader in the Energy Industry.
