WHAT DO PEOPLE SAY ABOUT THEIR DYL EXPERIENCE?

DYL has given me a personal space to think about myself both as an individual and a professional. It allowed me to see myself from a different perspective, ask questions I usually wouldn’t, and see my skills more clearly. I found a highly qualified training team and professional participants who were ready to listen – making the exchange of experiences very enriching. The journey has given me greater awareness of my priorities and helped me better manage my “work-life integration.”
