The selection committee consisted of representatives from six entities who ‘hated’ each other. Two of these members rated us last (seventh of seven) going into the interview. We designed a persuasive presentation using the Theme-Modular principles. The committee deliberated for 15 minutes and chose us unanimously!!! Our team ‘blew them away’ with our focused, persuasive presentation.”
—RS, Denver, CO.
