customer feedback
The facilitator's skills were outstanding. Initially, our goal was to learn how to develop KPIs from job descriptions, but he helped us shift our mindset. Now, we understand the importance of getting organizational performance right before focusing on individual performance. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the course and found it extremely valuable.
This training is simply excellent. The combination of Mark's experience, technical knowledge, approachability & facilitation skills had me engaged throughout the 5 days. Thank you & very well done.
The programme is very intense but well structured. I found that I got as much value from this course as was possible, to feel empowered and competent to apply this knowledge in my organisation.
A very good programme. One I will recommend to others. I think there is wisdom in breaking it into chewable components, so that focused learning and understanding may be realised.
