From our employees

"My experience in the HTH Momentous Leadership Program was excellent. I learned how to better leverage my strengths, tackle crucial conversations, communicate effectively with my peers, and many other leadership skills that I’ll be able to use for the rest of my career. This program also allowed me to network and form friendships with people from HTH and the other subsidiaries. I’m very grateful that I was given the opportunity to participate in such a constructive program."
