A Better Philadelphia, Inc.

An Investment in Excellence has captured my heart. This program is exactly what I have been searching for both personally and professionally. Now I understand why I think and see myself in limited terms. I understand that my thoughts and experiences are creating a template for my future and unless I intentionally create a limitless vision supported by positive and affirming self-talk, I will recreate the same limited, unfulfilling experiences. I was so moved by the training that I have requested to become a facilitator of the curriculum. Thank you Lou Tice, Mary O'Brien and all those who saw this vision, captured it and willingly share with others.

		I found the training for A Better Philadelphia a good reminder on how we are better off focusing on the positive and setting high goals. The concepts behind the training is a wonderful counterbalance to the negative and bad news we are bombarded with every day. For Philadelphia to succeed, we need to set our sights high and know that each of us can make a difference. Phil Goldsmith, Former Managing Director, City of Philadelphia Leadership training takes on a whole new perspective after A Better Philadelphia experience. Think of Emotional Intelligence, Myers Briggs and any other training you've had all rolled into one. A Better Philadelphia is committed to just what its name implies; it fosters a mentality, an outlook, that will result in the realization of Philadelphia's (and the region's) potential. Jac Ferber, Executive Director, AchieveAbility Professionally, my training under A Better Philadelphia has enabled me to see things differently, and to explore new ways to reach my students and the people I work with. For example, introducing them to the concepts of the Pacific Institute, positively impacted all twenty plus staffers who participated. Because of our training, we were able to sit down at the table for the first time in a long time and come up with ideas on how to solve our own problems to improve the education and working conditions at the school.
