"Ryan is a very good speaker: friendly, clear, and approachable. He sets clear expectations up front to help resolve ambiguity and is careful and deliberate with his language. I particularly liked his leading questions during the breakout exercises, such as TWiG, to help add a dimension to your thinking you may not have top of mind."
