Martyn
MD - Food ManufacturingThe process was a refresh and reminder of how to think effectively (NLP processes,beliefs values etc )
I also determined what I was trying to achieve with my life,and became re focused on my objectives.
This lead to re establishing previously successful thought processes that now support my progress.

Adrian
Supply Chain ManagerI have been with the same company for over 8 years and I have always wondered what else lies ahead for me!
From the word go Martin has been the key to opening my mind and helping me work towards my full potential and improving my confidence, factors that until now I never thought I had, or very little of!
Martin has helped me to realise my own strengths & weaknesses.
"Martin has also helped me to create my own plan and I have set targets that have boosted my self development."
This has allowed me to see things more clearly and has helped me to understand my ultimate goal.
AltheaThank you very much for the telephone session last night. When I was reflecting on the experience I was surprised that you were able to help me clarify and outline the steps to progress and meet my target.I felt very energised after the session.
Christa May I thank you for your support and the advise you have given me throught this year and I wish you all the very best for 2009
Joan Dear Martin,
Thank you for being there for us.
MaryJust wanted to say I really enjoy reading your articles and try and incorporate some of the wisdom into my own life as well as through my training.
MarylinJust a short note to say 'thank you' for coming along this morning to present to the Chamber of Commerce Breakfast group.
Your input was valued and I believe people left with the message - how positive thinking can drive their own personal and business lives forward.
SwapnaI received the first mails after I subscribed to your personal development program. They are very interesting, inspiring and useful. Thank you so much for your mails. I look forward for more in the future that will help me to see a change in my life.

I really have to confess, I am changed especially with the last inspirational message I received from you. It is very helpful in ones life, I printed a copy and shared it with my Boss who at the time was undergoing a lot of frustrations in her office. She agreed she discovered that it is due to her own projection of her life to others that people perceived her differently from what she really was.I will always continue to share your messages with friends
Facilitation - John -Venture Now CoachingI just wanted to say a big thank you for your help this week. The event went very well, I spent a while discussing it on Wednesday evening and Thursday morning with a number of delegates. Everybody was very happy with the results, the work and the obvious preparation you guys had put in. The Regional Manager thought the the results were far better than he had hoped.

TrainingAdrian and Martin were approached by myself to support an 'away day' for a large number of local authority officers attending a team building / professional development training day
The strengths of their work were shown through:
• Exploration of what was required
• Thorough preparation
• Meeting beforehand to clarify they were meeting brief
• Ability to work with a large group of people with a wide range of needs
• Flexibility – making changes in accordance to audience response
• Delivery which included humour and greater intensity
• Encouragement of group participation
• Linking to other programme areas
I would not hesitate to approach Adrian and Martin for further work if it was appropriate to a training programme. They are sensitive when looking to interact with a group where needs and expectations differ. They are able to listen and to explore alternative ways to meet those needs at an appropriate level. I would like to add that they demonstrate their belief in self improvement through a positive enthusiasm which supports individuals and groups and is never patronising.
Their work encouraged those present to review and reflect upon themselves as people and to use these thoughts to become part of an increasingly effective work force.
