“Toshi’s teaching style is very energetic and dynamic. He is super excited about the topics and very knowledgeable. He relays a lot of personal experience, either from his roles in consulting or even real life experience to tie in reality to the concepts.”
John Burrill, Senior Director, Thermo Fisher Scientific.
“He's very empathetic. He understands what we go through when we come from a non-financial background. He can translate our language into finance language, I say this phrase and he turns it into finance or economic language. And then a-ha, it makes sense to me.”
Nahida Lebbos ,Director, Varian Medical Systems.
“Toshi definitely embodies a passion and a vision for what he's trying to do, He doesn't (just) distill information. It’s almost like he instills and ignites imagination in his audience, which for me has been great. Again, it's not mathematics; it's about the art and the science behind it.”
Ahmer Srivasta, Director, Western Digital.
“I think one of the things that's been amazing for me is that I felt like Toshi's talking directly to me and addressing all of my needs. But at the same time, as I look around the room, I see that people generally tend to look as if they feel the same way.”
Bradley Patt, CEO, TheraCell.
“Toshi does a great job in really distilling it down to the essence of what you need to understand. And making sure that the concept is reinforced and I think that's what's really important. So I can try to get on the same playing field with my colleagues in finance.”
Lisa Decker, Executive Director, Nektar Therapeutics.
