“I read a quote from Google’s Sr VP of People Operations: ‘The only training you [as a company] should invest in is training that changes behavior.’ I attended the Facilitation Training workshop that Terrence Metz and the MG Rush Company hosted. What a fantastic, intense, and engaging 5 days – Terrence’s passion for teaching us the MG Rush Professional technique and for improving our own confidence to lead workshops and meetings, along with his energy for changing BEHAVIOR were contagious!” – T.G., Director, Project Management Office
