                   Aetna:
                   "I worked with Ian from approximately 1991 through 
                    1997, when I left Aetna's corporate education function. His 
                    method of identifying best practices in human resources and 
                    education through collaborative research is first rate, and 
                    provided us with very important information to improve our 
                    products and services.  
                     
                    Ian has extensive world-wide contacts which enriched the research 
                    and the follow-on collaboration that the research made possible. 
                    I was very impressed with his ability to incorporate all the 
                    needs of the various company sponsors and provide all of us 
                    with desired specific information. This research was extremely 
                    important to us as we developed new technologies and increased 
                    our education and training opportunities for the executive 
                    population (top 400) at Aetna. 
                     
                    Ian is a great listener, has excellent writing and speaking 
                    skills, and is very knowledgeable about company practices 
                    in areas of human resources and human capital development. 
                    These skills, combined with his networks, would be an asset 
                    to any international project. Ian is versatile and enjoys 
                    learning and expanding his knowledge base. New subjects would 
                    not serve as a hurdle for him but a wonderful challenge that 
                    I am sure he would embrace."
