Dealing with Difficult Sponsors

Ori has a wealth of knowledge that he delivers in a professional, approachable and non-threatening way. He uses humour to keep the energy in the room alive. Starting at noon and going until 6:30 or 7:00 is tiring for all, so his enthusiasm and energy is definitely appreciated.
