Alison and Sophie have extensive industry experience and really understand development and how to demystify it. As a result the takeaway is practical and relevant\, and we are given tools that we can apply across all our development work. It is a fantastic framework and I believe the confidence the workshop has given us will translate into commissions\, which is ultimately what it’s all about.
