Customer Comments about Volume 1

We use the DVD in a variety of safety awareness classes for supervisors. It has been a great introductory piece.

Bill Robins, Manager, Health & Safety, Panhandle Energy, Houston, Texas, USA

I have used it in a workshop on interest based bargaining that I delivered to demonstrate what we can miss when we are concentrating on something else. e.g. listening to what the other side is saying, or being focused on our own objectives.
