Customer Reviews

Here are a selection of reviews for our training courses.

  • Course content contained interesting and good material. Liked the philosophical aspect. You can easily use some methods in your private, social life. Was the right amount of content. The trainer was well prepared and motivated. Enough visual display. Loved the interaction. Quite active workshop.

  • The course content was excellent. I learnt a lot of new skills to help me become more organised and better in my job. The trainer's presentation was very good. Enjoyed both days from start to finish.

  • The content was very useful and relevant and included a lot of interactive elements to keep you interested and focused. I like the idea of the summary points and quotes at the back of the manual, that we wrote down each day. Alison delivered the course to perfection. I have never been in a course led by someone so engaging and with such presence, without being domineering or intimidating

  • The content of the course was very good with lots of thought-provoking topics, eg use of words, dealing with conflict, planning and prioritising. There was lots of material to cover but the trainer covered it at a good speed with lots of small sessions of thinking time. Writing our own action plan was a great idea as much more likely to focus on what is important to us.

  • The training course was very useful and packed full of information. The language used was very user-friendly and understandable. The Trainer's presentation was really good, the trainer showed lots of confidence and had great knowledge.

  • Thoroughly enjoyed the course, great confidence builder. Smart questions are fantastic, wrong box-right box is great and time management/priority list was all very beneficial. The Trainer was very engaging, personal and informative. Chris really knew his stuff.
