Testimonials

“The session I attended was great - I definitely learned a lot about what I'm doing right and where I can make some positive changes. Your style made it interesting even if the material could get a little dry. Loved the personal anectodotes too. I really like that you have a ton of credibility and experience. You kept us laughing - and you are the Ron James of edutainment.”

- Karen Willsteed, Shell Canada

 

“Mr. Lannon is at the forefront of the energy business analysis discipline. He will no doubt shape the industry. I think you are a great presenter. You use realistic and easy to understand examples. You are clear in communication.”

- Tyler Durk, Telus

 

It is important to feel like the instructor has the applicable ‘real world’ experience. Mr. Lannon had many excellent examples of these types of scenarios that helped the course material ‘sink in’. Richard has an engaging style that gets the group interacting and learning from one another as well as from the course material. He is very approachable and made everyone in the class feel valued and open to asking questions and giving feedback. Mr. Lannon is an excellent instructor and would be a benefit to any teaching situation.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for so enthusiastically teaching the program this week. You were able to maintain an extremely high level of energy throughout the five days of class, which I know is very difficult to do. The courses provided me a great deal of practical knowledge that I am excited to bring back to

a consulting environment. I look forward to taking future courses with you.
