Jerry is an amazing presenter. He is flexible in tailoring presentations to the needs of his audience, energetic, thoughtful, and a great listener! He responds well to group interactions and can make everyone feel an important part of the dialogue. He is very well versed in volunteer management and administrative issues and is sensitive to the many subtleties that present themselves in our work so is very responsive to the variety of needs of professionals and volunteers. From the administrative perspective he is a wonderful colleague, timely, cooperative, willing to pitch in, and with a sincere desire to see an event succeed. His sense of humor, lively style and kindness make him a great choice for conducting workshops and conference sessions!
