Testimonials

Through the study at WISPAD, I have found new ways and hope. Before I had many practical experiences, always felt that new problems arise time after time. Therefore we spent a lot of time solving those problems. Before I didn't realize that my own program design and operation models had problems. Through this study, I have deepened my understanding in operation and strategic management. At the same time I very much agreed with the case studies used, which have inspired us to know more about our own organization.
I'm especially impressed about the 3-year plan. It's what I had been looking for all these years but had never got such clear instruction on process until now.
Thanks WISPAD, hope to have more chance participating study here.
