What does IT Manager Institute's attendees say about the class?

Margie Gillean - Burton, Michigan

 
"Most practical useable class that I have taken. Your materials make my job easier and more relevant, thank you! MDE is exactly what I have been looking for, so I don’t have to reinvent the wheel in technology management. The value added tools helped my job become easier and faster before I attended school. Now I am prepared to achieve more! Thank you for your continued support and sharing your valuable experience. Management models book is the best set of wheels I own! Frosting on the cake!"
 
Mike Agee - Nashville, Tennessee

 
Just what I needed. Great stories! Examples were right on target. It is so refreshing to be around a "giver". Thanks for the great learning experience. Great dinner at Sandy’s.
 

John Mullin - Buford, Georgia  
The content of the meeting was outstanding. Along with the excellent information, the real life scenarios were very beneficial. The slides, book, and tools are outstanding. I plan on implementing several of the tools when I return to work. I would highly recommend the IT Manager Institute for both new and experienced IT managers. Mike’s real life scenarios reinforced concepts that he taught whereas most IT management classes talk about technical issues, this Institute focuses on the business and how the IT organization can bring value to the company.
 
Jamie Abart - Knoxville, Tennessee  
Excellent content with straight-forward approach – uncommon material in this space. The stories you provide give valuable perspective.
 
Michael Sprandel - Glencoe, Minnesota  
I learned quite a bit about Mike and myself. Think this was a personal and professional growth experience. Even thought I purchased the full series of material before the class, the class added value because you could go deeper into a concept. Other presentations the instructors show the material and leave. Mike stayed at the hotel and shared much more than most.
 
Theo de Klein - Luxembourg, Netherlands   
This was exactly what I needed. I have lots of ideas and new approaches to manage my department.

Very useful, easy to remember and certainly a lot I will use in the future. Your experience and funny examples can be used in my job forever. Great, I will go through all material again during my flight back to Holland. Next week, IT management will be different and my people will notice the change. Mike, thanks a lot; this training will change my life. Also about givers and takers. Humor will also play a more important role in my IT Depart from now on.
 
James Caruthers - Jackson, Tennessee  
I’m going to follow up on bringing several companies to your sessions. I wish that I would have been able to take this class ten years ago. I’m sure it would have greatly enhanced my career and where I am today.

Provided "real world" solutions and recommendations; easy to follow. Made learning/covering the topics fun and interesting. The training validated several things and provided tools and insight to look at situations in different ways to find the best solution. Not only did the IT manager provide new tools and ideas to help me better manage my resources, it was a validation that the IT organization can provide significant value to their company. The insight and experience Mike shared was practical and something to take back and start using right away.

It was a great investment and I highly recommend that all IT managers attend an Institute.
