Leader’s Quest Program

Dear Jack, First off, thank you for taking your time to come here and do this workshop with us. It gave me an experience to go out and find difficulties I need to improve on when approaching new things in life (communicating with strangers, etc.). I really admire how you’re such an easy-going ...

I really enjoyed your program today. It made me realize that people have really serious problems that I never knew about. It also persuaded me to stop and help prevent bullying in G.L. and wherever I do. Thanks, Jack and Jim. (original message)

Dear Jack, My name is L. Graham. As a former and current leader, I believe this leadership workshop was one of the best experiences I’ve had in my life time. This workshop was a great way for different team leaders, to open up to everyone around them. Also to show and share the ...

I feel that your program has helped me get past a 10 year struggle with losing my father. I feel not only can I “not” alone but I truly do feel like someone close care. Jack, you’re an amazing guy who I honestly will always remember this moment. And the program has helped ...

Thank you. Please come back to this school and share your teachings.

Dear Jack, When I first walked in, I thought we all are just going to play around, meet new people and watch a movie. But well I was so wrong. I had the best time here, met all new people, you made me feel special, safe and welcome. The most emotional part is ...

Today has been intense and scary. I never felt so vulnerable in my entire life and I have never felt so hurt. It was amazing. At first I was skeptical. What will we do? How will this affect me? What’s the point? Why do only I feel this way? I was afraid of ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for today. It was really fun and interesting, I’m glad I joined. This leadership session has taught me a lot, I feel more comfortable with the people around me. I even made some new friends. This session also made me aware of everyone’s problems. I noticed some people have ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for today. Today you helped me very much. You helped me to let out my bottled up feelings. You made it a fun experience, while we were learning to trust complete strangers. Today you showed me that I’m not alone and that I have an amazing support system, that ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for teaching me how to become a true leader and listener. I will use the knowledge that I have gained to become a better person and to help those in need. Today I have found my inner self and found a lot about others. One thing that I will ...

This is my second time participating in this, and it doesn’t get easier. It was hard to open up to people that I didn’t know, but it was a great experience. It was hard to see people cry, even if I didn’t know them, and especially difficult to see the amount that go ...

Dear Jack, Thank you for coming to our school! I really enjoyed it, and the skills we learned like teamwork, and supporting people really helped me a lot. Also, the words you spoke to me about my presence and how it is so noticeable that I can light up the room made me ...

Dear Jack, This experience with the younger students was interesting and inspiring. I felt that I have had done a pretty good job in reaching out, and also learned to do better with communication, thanks to your workshop training sessions. Although these workshops were surely successful and moving for the students at the ...

I feel closer to people I never thought possible!

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 ...
