Comments from the Event Organizer:
Excerpts from a letter written by Margaret O’Neal, Director of Education & Certification
“Your seminar was met with resounding admiration from the attendees who were present. Listeners appreciated the “Exceptional Speaker”, and said “Best session I attended!” You did an amazing job of educating and entertaining this huge group! I also heard a number of wonderful comments afterwards. Everyone left very excited and energized.
As a result, we have invited you back to speak at another conference 6 months from now in Atlantic City. We have never invited a speaker back so quickly as we have with you. I have also recommended you to other conference organizers.”
OFA Short Course
An Association of Floriculture Professionals, Columbus, OH, 2006
Comments from the Event Organizer
Excerpts from a letter written by Michelle Gaston, Director Professional Development
“We are beginning our plans for the 2007 OFA Short Course. The committees met in late October and compiled lists of topic and speaker suggestions for me to assemble into a complete seminar program.
One of the encore speakers included on that list was … Lorna McLaren who ranked in the top 10 speaker list for both her sessions! And two top 10 performances are even more impressive when noted that there were 189 speaker sessions on that list!! We would like you to present 2 sessions again.”
Landscape Ontario Congress
Canada’s International Horticultural Trade Show & Conference, Toronto, ON, 2007
Comments from the Event Organizer
Excerpts from a letter written by Pat A. Hillmer, Conference Coordinator
“The survey sheets from both of your sessions were excellent – the crowd loved your presentation style, information and interactive exercises. The most consistent comments were to have you back again and that they had fun.
Certainly when someone can make learning as much fun as you do, I would like to talk to you as soon as I can review possible Congress 2008 topics.”
