We found your training session in Detroit last week to be very informative, and we are excited by the potential for Mars Electronics and Mars Inc.  Thanks for running a great course.

This class will reinforce many product development ideologies that you may already have and introduce you to a world of new possibilities.

The Systematic Innovation class is a great compilation of innovation tools, with sufficient depth for new and experienced users.  The class is fast-paced and a very valuable use of time.

We want to thank you for the great presentation you made at Kimberly-Clark.  Your training was very well received.  Discussions and plans are being developed to proceed with the next step of more in-depth sessions.  Thanks for the time and effort you put into your excellent “Take Random out of the Innovation Process” presentation and hope you will be able to work again with Kimberly-Clark R&E in future trainings.

Just wanted to thank you for efforts on the 2-day session.   You did an OUTSTANDING job and delivered exactly what we needed.  Your introduction part was great and I believe it gave the people enough information to proceed into problem analysis.  Also, appreciate your patience and experience in the problem-solving portion.  You finally got this quiet group to actively participate.

Great instructor with a diverse and applicable example(s) for each method/technique.  Nice historical mix.  I would recommend this course to anyone who enjoys thinking.

The whole idea of bringing structure to the invention process blew my mind.  It was a great to know and learn that it actually works.

Dave Verduyn choreographed an outstanding Innovation Workshop with 20 attendee’s, keeping their focus for the whole event while yielding excellent results!   Success was due to Dave’s willingness to spend time understand our needs and his time planning and customizing the session to make it a success.  Our senior management has stated this workshop has set a new precedent on how we need to run all future sessions.  Great job!  Well organized and well supported.  Hope to work with you again!

Need the equivalent of a B12 shot for your creativity? ..... Spend a day or two with these methods.  The training was solid, detailed content delivered very coherently in a relatively short amount of time.

This course inspires critical thinking about different ways to solve problems.  Not jumping to solutions is a difficult skill to master, but understanding the process (you taught us) yields much better end results.

This was a tremendous learning experience.  This set of problem-solving tools could be the core asset (crown jewels) of any lean DFSS or NPD regime, but its usefulness will apply to almost any field or discipline.

Dave is a great presenter, smart and has provided really effective and useful tools that are easy to use and understand.  This will DEFINITELY help in our product development process.

I have worked with Dave several times over the last 20 years.  I’ve recently moved to a new organization, and we had a major project that is in the early stages.  We needed to find someone to help the cross-functional team generate new ideas and build a toolbox that they could use to spur innovation and creativity. Dave exceeded my expectations.  The team came away with many new ideas and are very excited about the new tools they learned.  There is no question, this will be helpful for our business for years to come, and we will have Dave back for other phases of the project, and for other projects in the future.
