3. Lunch & Learn Session 1 Feedback: Structured Problem Solving 8.6 How valuable was the session? Not Valuable Incredibly Valuable What worked well? • Mix of independent and team exercises. Exercise after each concept. • I liked all of it • Format and group engagement • Hands on activities What could be improved • It was good to engage the group, but could make delivery a little more fun/exciting so people want to participate more. • Make it more translatable to CLIENT's workflows around DD • Tying the value of these concepts to our work - in particular to address the "is this relevant to diligence?" question. Make the session longer and include more examples and exercises based on real CLIENT engagements. • More group discussion into the rationale behind each break-out group’s decisions - I would be happy to discuss more in person for clarification Other comments • Exactly what we need for college hires • This will be a great session for our new hires this summer. • Thank you • Huge improvement on anything we have had in the past! • Super excited for the next session
