Thank you for organizing this very comprehensive event. These ideas will be a bank for us to dip into as we gradually increase our capacity. A heartfelt thanks to all of the KPMG participants in our breakout group for taking the time to listen to our story, review our website, and bring their experience and creativity to bear, providing best practices for our very small organization. We truly appreciated hearing their experiences and ideas on immediate actions we can take to achieve results.”
