“The trainer was very well prepared (there was an online intake beforehand with our questions and expectations), clearly had a lot of experience and was really empathetic. She managed to identify our communication problems very quickly and proposed concrete solutions. I was really very surprised and satisfied with the output of this training. Top!”

“During this very successful training I was able to master the basics of negotiation as well as being given a number of ‘capstans’ to use during negotiations. The tips on body posture and maintaining rapport during conversations were extremely valuable. These expectations were met and I got the chance to see my own skills but also weaknesses during the workshop.”

“In all aspects, the training fulfilled and actually exceeded my expectations. Not only the trainer perfectly analysed my weaknesses but was able to suggest personalized tips and tools for getting rid of them and improve my time management. Lies Martens was an amazing, enthusiastic, and clearly very experienced trainer, who addressed each participant individually and was able to make the course flow smoothly for the whole time without losing our attention and interest. This course was a pleasant experience and the attitude of the trainer really motivated me. I will definitely apply the tips in my daily work.”

“I will definitely apply the techniques from the workshop. In fact, I already had the chance to do so: I just had a call with a very irritated client, and I noticed I was able to use what I had learned yesterday. It really helped – in the end, the client even apologised for his anger. I hope the attention I gave him will help to defuse the situation around the late delivery.”

“For many years I have been struggling with speaking fast and articulating poorly in Dutch. The coach provided good insights and the exercises and tips are a daily reminder to pay attention to my breathing. I also received some personalized tips that are very helpful. I should have done this earlier!”
