“Ardy Roberto’s ‘Lead with LIFE’ captured the hearts of the participants, whether a leader or a follower. Listening to him elaborate on Love, Integrity, Faith and Expectations (LIFE) compels one to contemplate how relationships should be handled in the corporate world. It stirs the values of a person that in a world where outcomes matter, the journey on how goals are achieved is of primary importance. ‘Lead with Life’ by Ardy Roberto is strongly recommended for companies that invest in their employee development.“
