4MAT has been the key to creating connection and consistency throughout our education system. Our educators now share a common language for learning design. As a result, the skill and confidence level of both educators and learners has skyrocketed. The concept is brilliant and Hold On, You Lost Me! makes the 4MAT system simple to understand and apply-a must for all trainers and learning-based companies.-Virginia Meyer, Vice President of Education Aveda Corporation of Estee Lauder
