"Easily the best PD I have done in a very long time.  Learnt a lot and have started some of the ideas and suggestions."

 

"Content was delivered in a way i now feel confident to do a PD with the rest of my office colleagues and pass the information on. Highly recommended!"


"It was a really great session. Sometimes PD's can seem to drag on and most participants are keen to get away as early as possible. I noticed it was 4:15pm and most people even though the finish time was 4pm were still keen to chat and ask questions. The energy levels were kept high and I found the day moved quickly, but in a way that information was easy to retain.I have already implemented 2 of the practises - sacred time or a meeting with myself and the use of body language to discourage "chatters" with out offending. I have already recommended this to the Principal and would go to another pd with this trainer."


"Breaking allocated tasks in work quadrants...learning about "loading" .  Great session...was very timely:)"

I came in with an open mind, and I left very satisfied and more confident.

"Very happy with the course offering - valuable skills and tools gained to deal with procrastination, prioritising, delegation."

-ATEM Queensland Region

"I thoroughly enjoyed the Time Management Skills training I attend 31/08/17. Derek was very knowledgeable and offered a lot of information which I found helpful in both my working and personal environments. I'm a procrastinator, I would make to do lists but prioritising the list was hard. Often jumping from task to task and at the end of the day not having ticked much of the lists. This has now all changed. I gained a number of skills and tips which have been invaluable to career and personal life. I have implemented many of the skills gained. As a result, I am able to better project manage our office relocation, I no longer procrastinate and I am able to work through prioritised to do list while completing task like never before. I completely enjoyed the course content from start to finish. I have attended many training courses and have also delivered them. But this was the best course I have undertaken and I found all of the content valuable. I remained engaged for the whole training and this is due to Derek's delivery of the course content. Thanks again Derek. 10/10 PD Training :)"

Siobhan was a fantastic/engaging speaker. I was a bit skeptical when I found out that the training was for a whole day.... I thought " what is she going to tell me for one full day.... it will be a waste of my day..." But 4.30 came and I was still hanging for more information.

Metcash logo
Best Metcash course I've EVER done in my 10 years with the company - should have made time to do it many years ago. The trainer was fantastic - knowledgeable, enthusiastic, professional & light-hearted - the time flew (which it rarely does in training sessions). The course was well-paced, topical & very applicable to the workplace & private time alike. I will make time to actually read the manual cover to cover. Thank you!

LivingWell Media Pty Ltd logo
A big thank you to Kirsty for the training! I really enjoyed it and have learned some new skills I'm starting to put into practice, already making me feel less stressed and more able to effectively control my time. My desk is even starting to look neater already! Kirsty was also fantastic at handling the group and bringing the focus back to the work at hand in a very polite way when it came to people talking/getting off track - it was actually a non-intentionally provided skill simply because she was practicing it! She was also very professional and friendly with each of the different personalities in the class, giving every one the same attention and chance to be a part of the activities. A great day, a great set of skills and great people. Thank you. Jess.

It was very good. In fact one of the best comments made by the trainer related to my personality type (being quite visual)and the importance for me in keeping my work environment clear of clutter and distractions.

Honda MPE logo
Undertaking this training session has been giving me the opportunity to advance my skills in preparation and planning areas, how to run the training session or to train more effectively. The information, the resources, the life experiences that the trainer has provided has exceeded my expectations. The topics, the discussions, activities and abet of games and the feedback are very helpful throughout. Because its a small group, which is preferable, I got more chances to ask questions to help me understand fully and supportive. Other two participants are also supportive, which I am comfortable to work with, I also leant a lot from their life experiences. At the end of the session, I am able to step out of my comfort zone, growth in my confidentiality and how to structure/plan a training session, its an absolute relevant and beneficial knowledge that I will use/assist for my workplace in future.
