Andy Pattantyus, APICS San Fernando President, provides this testimonial after having personally attended the workshop: 

 “Cynthia Burnham’s fabulous workshop “Owning the Room” teaches critical skills to any professional who must present and sell their ideas and proposals with confidence and composure.
