What FD Global Customers Are Saying
Working with Trena and her team at FD Global on the “Mastering the Business Growth Lifecycle” workshop series was a delight. Trena’s warmth and commitment to helping founders succeed were evident from the start. Her organized and proactive team made the experience enjoyable. I’m grateful for our partnership and excited about future collaborations.
