Dear Jack, Thank you so much for coming to Madonna! I think all of us here will take lessons back and put them in effect in our lives. I really liked how you emphasized listening and its importance. In this fast-paced world we now live in, we all don’t listen to each other ...

Crying was such a huge relief – I have kept things inside for so long. I’ll remember this day for the rest of my life!!

Dear Jack, Today was a great experience overall for me because I got to know other students more and learned the qualities of a leader. This taught me to improve my listening skills, and to become a better person. Thank you for taking your time to come to Madonna. (original message)

I would really like to thank the two of you for helping a lot of us today get our feelings out and just to be totally honest. I’m very thankful I was invited today because I’ve had some feelings bottled up that just had to be let out. This whole program today really ...

It felt good to know that I wasn’t the only one that had all these troubles.

Dear Jack, Thank you for this leadership workshop. It was very inspirational, and I felt that there were things in me that I need to change. When I go home, I’m just gonna take some time to just search through my thoughts, and figure out what I need to change in my life. ...

Leader’s Quest Program

Dear Jack, Thank you for today. I enjoyed it. I learned to be a better listener and a better leader. At the beginning of the workshop, I thought I’d feel left out. I saw many familiar and unfamiliar faces. I expected today to run more different than it did, but it was interesting. ...

My expectations for the day were that it could get the majority of people emotional which would most likely get me emotional too. Personally I think the most important message you guys were trying to get across was that people have problems in their lives and when you tease them it doesn’t make ...

I feel closer to people I never thought possible!

This day was full of surprises and unexpected reactions. Today made a powerful impact on the way I see things. It showed that guys have feelings too and that we are all equal… This day was needed to help us open up. Thank you so much. Everything seems so amazing how real life ...

Even with all this emotion in this room, it seems hard to be able to express these emotions or cry. But, with this presentation, it’s helped me open up a lot more with my friends, or even people I don’t know. This day has changed my life in every aspect by the way ...

I really wasn’t going to come today but I glad I did come. You guys were a blast. I wish that we could get you to come back and do this again. Your program Quest I’m On is really great and you guys have to be amazing that you can go through all ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for this amazing experience. It has showed me a lot about being a leader, and being respectful to one another. Today, I will walk out of here with a brand new attitude towards being kind. When we had to cross the line for our problems, it really it me ...
