"The Masters Forum does a remarkable job of finding presenters who are ‘ahead of their time’ -- who offer a way of thinking that challenges some aspect of conventional wisdom."
Jim Ruprecht, Medtronic
"The Masters Forum allows me to have legitimized time to think … to set apart time to go to a session, and listen, and reflect - it's a tremendous way to get back in touch with your own creativity."
Charles Baxter, Polaris Industries
"I really like sessions that deliver the big picture, like Clayton Christensen's talk this year, ideas that help you create a whole new framework for business decisions. Or the ideas that are jarring, that you know not everyone will sign onto, like Meg Wheatley's session years ago, about discovering the random patterns in an organization. Sessions you either hate or love. Even when I hate one, it changes the way I think -- forever."
Tom Eckstein, Arundel Street Consulting
"For anyone interested in new thinking and learning about organizations and business, The Masters Forum is a great investment."
Dave Smilonich, MN Dept. of Transportation
"Better than reading the Wall Street Journal."
Jim Afdahl, NCS Pearson
"The Master’s Forum’s competitive advantage is that they are clearly focused on the usefulness of the learning and application for all their members."
