The course content was excellent. Perfectly structured so that it flowed and made logical sense. I have been on similar courses in the past, but the content and particularly the delivery of this one, was the best I have seen. Very impactful.

The course material and additional resources were really helpful. Even though the course was online, it was still really interactive and I now feel I have some great tools to work with. I would recommend this course. Chris was a terrific trainer! His energy was great and I felt motivated to remain engaged throughout. He was knowledgeable and gave helpful explanations and clear answers to questions. It was great to have Chris physically in front of you, engaging and discussing key points while also using the interactive whiteboard to illustrate key points. There was a good balance of slides, interactive whiteboard and discussion.

Very informative training. Diagrams and plans will be very useful, as will the decision matrix in helping me to keep focused on my goals and maintain a positive mental attitude. The presenter was also extremely engaging, fast-paced but clear, good interaction and would definitely recommend this course to others.
Mike Lockton
FWJ Legal Limited
Detailed course with a lot of information to impart, which must be difficult to condense. It was divided into easy chunks and was very clear and structured. I think the benefits will become apparent in time. Engaging and welcoming, clear and informative, reactive to comments from the room, thank you. 100/100

I really enjoyed the course, so many different modules covered that I will find useful in my professional life. Great content, the modules on communication and conflict in particular were insightful and structured. Chris, the trainer, was approachable, clear and concise. I would highly recommend him as a trainer. He was committed to making sure we received the full training. Easy to understand and knowledgeable.

I found the course to be informative and I very much enjoyed the day. The number of delegates allowed for a more personal approach which I found helpful. I have taken away some useful tools to handle difficult and confrontational situations, that can be applied not only in the workplace but in life generally. Having access to the post course portal for further support is also a bonus. I found the course tutor, Chris, to be engaging and would definitely consider attending your courses in the future.

"Thanks Chris, you changed my life!" Honestly, I thought I knew most of it already, but I've learned a lot more. The trainer's presentation was very good, good communication (physical and verbal) and always looking at everyone which is important!

The course content is practical and adaptable to everyday living – not just work! I am sure that the skills I have learnt will come into immediate use and I urge other new managers to take this course. The trainer’s presentation was fantastic and he delivered the presentation exceptionally. He was helpful, energetic, inspiring and fun.

I was looking online at a course that may benefit the position I hold. (Owner of small business company) and I stumbled upon this two day course. I have found the course very interesting for my business leadership & also my own personal development. Also one that my staff can do & I will be using these guys for this. The trainer was positive, knowledgeable and inspiring.98/100
Andrew Scott Challener
Royale Boiler Services Limited
I have attended a few courses in the past and this one is by far the best. It has got a very well-defined structure and lots of useful information. The most useful content was to do with dealing with people in conflict situations: wrong box / right box and success formula. Very clear presentation and good, relevant examples. Did not drift off the point. Was easy to keep focus on.
Alina Krutikovaite

Great content, a lot of useful insights especially about task prioritisation and the value of positive mindset. Great trainer. Nice combination of theory and personal experience. 100/100

I have taken a lot of helpful stuff from this training and it will benefit me to become better with dealing with others at work. The presentation was great. One of the best training courses I have been on. Fantastic trainers.
Michael Wilkes
Midland Building Products Ltd
I now understand that lack of appreciation is often the cause of conflict and that an efficient leader should seek to change the future behaviour. The trainers were very practical, clear and able to communicate very efficiently. They were unambiguous and made the sessions very interesting.
Chinyere Umeh
Niger Delta Development Commission
Course content was excellent covering some really valuable topics in a good amount of detail with practical tools and methods that will be easy to implement without overloading us with too much information. Virtual presentation was excellent, the trainers were clear and gave a good balance of presenting and allowing discussion/ prompting for answers and input from the delegates. I really like the combination of the power point slides, the PDF workbook, and the digital white board used by both trainers.
Mike Geary
City in the Community Foundation - Manchester City Football Club
Really informative with lots of practical tips, especially around how to communicate better—whether that’s inspiring others or giving feedback. The app and online tools were a great bonus. Chris was super knowledgeable and easy to relate to, and the personal stories really helped bring the ideas to life.
Peter Spencer
Western Pegasus
It was the best of this type of course I’ve attended. I found all elements beneficial, particularly conflict management and the success concept. It was a perfect balance of teaching vs interaction, with a nice touch of humour. I didn’t nod off once, Chris engaged me 100% for the full two days. I’m looking forward to applying what I’ve learnt and would highly recommend this course.
Angela Appleby
Royal College of Psychiatrists
A very informative course. Covered many areas of use, with plenty of content. Assisted me in realigning my business approach. The trainer was very engaging, delivered the course clearly in a timely manner. I would highly recommend attending the course, if you would like to understand how to be more effective and productive in your working day.
Mark Willmott
Theiscraft Ltd
I found the course content to be varied and covered a good range of materials. The mix of tool-kits, activities and contextual material was well-balanced. I enjoyed the trainer's manner and delivery. He balanced the course content and personal anecdotes, so the course was engaging as well as useful. He was positive, constructive and knowledgeable.
Sarh Ilieva
British Council
Course content was very spot on focusing on the main aspects of time wasters. Chris was very professional and presented the content in a very interactive manner engaging the attendees throughout the training. Technology was very good. The use of digital interactive background and the whiteboard connection from the tablet was especially interactive. (Live, online remote time management training course).
Geo Joseph
Littelfuse Ltd
An excellent course. This is something all employees should receive BEFORE or IMMEDIATELY AFTER moving to a supervisory/managerial role. Contains lots of useful info, also for general life. The trainer was engaging, maintained interest of the group. Good explanations of the content, in easy to understand terms.
Phil Stubbs
The Binding Site Group Ltd
The course was very informative. I have experienced similar courses before, like SMART, but this was much more cohesive. Very useful in joining the dots and at least confirming that I have the basics that I can continue to build on. The trainer was very good, a bit quirky in parts, precise and demonstrative.
Alison Walker
Stroud District Council
The course content was interesting, and I found it very useful and motivating. I have learnt a lot and feel confident about putting this into practise. Chris is a very good trainer, who kept my interest and attention throughout the course. Good use of personal anecdotes brought real life situations into the learning.
Carole Ball
Diagnostic Healthcare Ltd
Excellent overview of concepts with some detailed analysis of key concepts. Such as the ‘goal’ part of SMART. The trainer was knowledgeable and approachable. I particularly liked that it was their own material – constantly improved and not just ‘a trainer’ presenting a training package.

Great content! Really well explained. The use of fact when dealing with conflict. 8 SMART Goals. To be clear, rational and positive. Chris was fantastic, really enthusiastic, engaging. Made it very easy to understand and learn from his theories.
Razak Malik

The course was informative and made me question leadership skills that I have operated with for years, but made me see a fresh approach to dealing with different scenarios I am faced with. The trainer's presentation was fantastic. He kept the group involved and made everything very clear as the presentation went on. Very knowledgeable.
Dean Stones
Centreplate UK Ltd
I really benefited from annotating the course material, as it helped me stay engaged with the content. The tools and techniques provided were incredibly helpful, and I plan to implement and develop them further in my work over time. Chris delivered a very professional, well-timed, and structured course. He was very positive and inspiring. Thank you.
Kimberley Read
Stroud District Council
The course content was mixed and kept me attentive. I appreciated all the examples and stories, much easier to learn from experiences. The trainer was very interactive. I enjoyed working in pairs, definitely helped content sink in.
Chloe Pott

Thoroughly enjoyable and enlightening, I hadn't previously considered the impact of time management in the way the course was written and delivered. I learnt a lot to consider that I hadn't previously. The Trainer was very positive, personable and knowledgeable throughout the day. Very engaging - post lunch slump never came!
Jo Jones
Cheshire Fire Service
The course content is very useful and is delivered in an open manner so we can easily apply the teachings to any industry. Confidence boosting and good reminders of what we should be doing in our work places. The trainer was a great public speaker. He inspired confidence and motivation. With his complete/diverse professional background, it allows everyone to relate. Thank you very much.
Diane Schaefer

The course was brilliant, very informative and the tools gained to use in my workplace will be invaluable. Well worth it on all levels and will recommend to others. The trainer was fantastic, clear, precise and easily understood. It was a pleasure to be a part of this. Thank you so much.

James Kay

The training course content was superbly structured with excellent notes. Each element was clearly presented and discussed, allowing opportunity to reflect and plan on how to integrate into our professional and personal lives. Gezz was amazing and the best trainer I have ever witnessed. Polite, courteous and understanding throughout, Gezz delivered this course in an interesting and engaging way through the entire sessions 10/10.

Course Content Extremely helpful it has given me multiple tools to move forward. Love good box/bad box & prioritisation framework. Trainer Presentation was Interactive & allowed for personal opinions & feedback
Vicki Martin
RES Group
The course content suited me as it pointed out the ways I could make my own attitude more positive, which would allow me to pass on that positivity to my colleagues. This should ensure a happier more productive working environment. I felt the trainer was excellently prepared. It wasn't a 'classroom' situation and humour was incorporated leading to a stress-free, enjoyable course.
Anthony Krogulec
KCH Garden Square
The course gave me excellent awareness of the importance of negotiation preparation, success formula, persuasion techniques and consequences. The trainer's presentation was excellent.
