Seminar Length: These seminars run between one and three hours; however, the preferred length is two hours. I will work with you regarding breaks and discussion/question and answer sessions. I have, on occasion, agreed to speak for as short a time as thirty minutes; but I would rather not, because too much material has to be omitted to meet those time constraints.
