I wanted to write you and Lory Fischler to thank you again for the outstanding work you did with our mentor principals at the CPS 2004 Mentor Principal Institute. After a few months distance and a few de-briefing meetings, it has become even more evident that your workshop was truly beneficial to experienced and new mentors alike. The evaluations indicated a deep appreciation on the part of the participants for your mentoring expertise and for your book. Especially helpful were the ideas of doing confidentiality agreements and in opening the door for mentors to dialogue more deeply with their mentees regarding the mentees' goals and objectives.

We greatly appreciate your work and the insights and expertise you shared with us.

Lory Fischler has the gift of presenting information that is both practical and profound. Her sense of humor and pleasant style made the day truly entertaining, as well. It was a pleasure to have fun and learn helpful skills and tools at the same time.
