Feedback
"This was really an eye-opener for me: I'm a strong proponent of collaborative knowledge creation, even online, since I work with a team that is on the other side of the world from me, but I had no idea a short workshop, with people I just met, could yield such powerful synergy resulting in a truly innovative (potential) product. It's a testament to the power of the HCD process and the skill of the facilitators.
Thanks a lot, Edwin, and Kevin, for taking this on and doing it so well. Thank you Lulu, for incredibly powerful ideas, and your friendly spirit of sharing ideas and thanks, Ivonne, for being a really facilitation team member. " Warmly, Sveta
"My principal, Glenn, likes to say: "teamwork makes the dream work." Not his words but still appropriate! I've worked on many teams and this one really came together nicely. I was happy to invest the time for this and feel it was totally worth the effort." Kevin
