Practical courses by experienced trainers

“I mainly wanted to learn techniques to give better feedback. This expectation was fully met. In fact, we saw even more than this. I learnt technique to stay calm, communicate better and make sure others don't get worked up when feedback is problematic.”

“The Presentation Techniques course provided me with useful tips and skills to improve my voice and posture. I also gained more insight into how to build a good structure for a presentation. My opinion is clear: everyone who gives professional presentations should take this or a similar course!”

“I wanted to gain insights into our team's thinking and thus improve collaboration. There was a nice balance of theory, practical examples and exercises. Each HDBI profile was discussed in detail so we now have a better picture of our communication, expectations and information processing. The result is that we are more understanding of each other. We definitely want another follow-up training!”

“In this course I learned how to better deal with certain stress factors that are out of my control. The workshop was very to the point and very informative. It is the most interactive training I have ever had and with a super teacher. I have the feeling that I will be able to benefit from this for a long time to come.”

“I wanted to learn new concepts about conflicts and become more confident and strategic in conflict-related situations. The trainer introduced several helpful techniques that will be help in real conflict situations. I liked that these strategies were simple, reasonable and well structured. This training made me confident and showed me that conflict is not always a bad thing and that it can be used for an improvement.”

“Initially, I was very sceptical about the set-up and was actually swept along in a fascinating story from the start, giving me a clear idea of what can be gained from such performance appraisals. The approach made it clear that you can extract a lot of interesting and useful info from such an interview and apply it immediately. I learned that a performance interview is not a snapshot, but should be a continuous process. As far as I am concerned, this was a very successful workshop.”

“The trainer managed, in a practical way, to teach me useful things. The importance of asking open questions in the sales process and daring to adopt an assertive attitude. I can now apply this on a daily basis. The training has really flown by. It was a great learning experience! ”
