Practical courses by experienced trainers

“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!”

“A very practical training course. You can use it straight away to simplify your daily activities: for example, record a telephone conversation with a customer, keep track of your own activities and bring structure to your tasks and plans.”

“Thanks to the training, our meetings have become much more proactive and we get the most out of our online group discussions. Furthermore, we received very good tips and tricks to better deal with video calls. Zoom video meetings are now standard in our team. I can definitely recommend this new way of working! ”

“In this training I hoped to receive tips and tricks on how to avoid misunderstandings between people from different nationalities and backgrounds, especially between Dutch and Belgium co-workers. I have learned that behaviour can be a cultural reaction but also that the individual attitude can play an important role. Being able to understand, flexibility and not judging the expected feedback from colleagues are the major learning points.”

“Many tips were provided and the fact that we were allowed to make our own exercises made us think more. It made us realise that we communicate a lot every day, but not always in the right way (too negative, unclear, not clear, not to the point,...). The trainer was very pleasant and ensured good interaction. There was a relaxed atmosphere and questions were answered immediately. A real tailor-made training :-)”

“Lies Martens combines great expertise and experience with a warm personality and great empathy. The group immediately felt at ease and received excellent advice. Through many practical exercises, we were immediately given actionable and very useful tips.”

“I was looking for some techniques to deal professionally with the media. Expectations were fully met and the immediate feedback on the camera exercises is very interesting. Smooth and interactive training given by Lies Martens, who knows her profession inside out.”

“I was looking for insights on giving feedback, delegating and management by objectives. All I can say is: excellent on all fronts. The trainer provides very clever working frameworks that can be applied in the day-to-day business environment and spends a lot of time on coaching and support. Each part of the training allows me to put it into practice, and that is its strong point.”

“The course fully met my expectations. The trainer was great both in terms of content and the way the training was given. I now have a better understanding of how to answer certain questions from the media and which techniques can be used for this purpose.”

“The training was very interactive with practical exercises and good, useful feedback. I was given useful tips on how to instantly trigger the audience and generate interest. From the beginning, the trainer drew me into an engaging story. It was an enjoyable day that flew by, so to speak.”
