“The cockpit training really appealed to me because I could see analogies to the management of my company right from the start. In addition, the knowledge elements demonstrated were clearly and precisely formulated and easy to absorb - you can't learn any faster! It became clear that my assistant's awareness of problems is completely different and that she is the informal copilot who does not appear at the top of any hierarchy. The virtues of the assistant should be put forward. Really highly recommended."
Jan-Christoph Maiwaldt, CEO, noventic GmbH
