TESTIMONIALS
“Having worked with Gordon over a number of years on numerous television projects with the Motion Picture Arts Program at RDC, I can attest to the positive and well organized attributes of Gordon Sheppard. I am a big fan of this man and his talents. It’s typical of my experience with Gord reading about how to organize productive meetings and celebrating positive outcomes. Gord is a man of action and encouragement and supported me when I’d go out on a limb. But he wasn’t just another “rah-rah/group hug” guy. I trusted Gord to be insightful and to critique my efforts in a constructive manner and I must say he never let me down.”
“Having gathered a group of smart and powerful people to consult on a potential new project, I was nervous; these were not people with time to waste. I put my trust in Gord to create a meeting that would make good use of the time they were spending in the room that day, and he did not disappoint. Somehow, he simultaneously fostered a relaxed and casual atmosphere while keeping us on topic and on schedule. He ushered us through an extremely productive and rewarding conversation but never gave us any feeling of being controlled or overly formal. Not only did we accomplish our objectives, several of my attendees commented to me afterwards on the quality of the meeting and the facilitation. I’m grateful to have had Gord in my corner that day.
