"The impact assessment creation process was the highlight of the whole program. We always looked forward to the sessions as they helped us unravel our business in phases we hadn't looked through before. The communication channels were used well. We especially love the fact that we agreed on the mode to use at the beginning and it was followed duly. The 1-hour deep dive calls flew by very fast; maybe you could consider adding more time for future cohorts."
