"I have had the distinct pleasure of working alongside Dr. Erdmann for several years. With each project we have collaborated on I come away with a greater understanding of the problems and solutions. With each interaction I have with Marjorie I find myself wanting to know more about the great work she is doing and the collective work of our communities. She is an engaging thought leader that both keeps you on your toes and brings you in with humility and grace. I am always on the lookout for a Dr. Erdmann collaboration!”

“Marjorie is one of the most innovative people I've ever had the pleasure to work with and her efforts to bring people together to share their ideas and expertise is inspiring. She has organized and facilitated large events to find ways to engage people from any background. She is a passionate expert in innovation and every time I meet with her or hear her speak, I learn something new and powerful. She can clearly explain complex ideas and ignite the ideas in any audience. If you ever get the chance to meet Marjorie or work with her, you will be very glad you did.”

“I can envision this occurring in the hospital and a nurse not realizing the unintended effect they have on patients, staff, and the hospital. I know I will remember this discussion when it comes time for me to prepare my own patients for discharge... I left today’s class with a new insight into what it takes to establish and run an effective process, whether in the hospital or otherwise. In the future, I will more carefully consider the impact my actions may have on others."

"I truly cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Erdmann... While I certainly enjoyed each of our guest speakers’ presentations throughout the semester, this was by far my favorite. I was pleasantly surprised by their unique method of teaching as it was different from what I was expecting coming into class...they were able to break complex concepts into manageable ideas through engaging activities. I found this hands-on and interactive approach to learning not only engaging but also very memorable. I know I will remember the lessons we learned today and will carry them on into my professional career."
