Learned a great deal!
Our Team Leaders have been doing playbacks of their business case on the problems they’ve identified and worked with during the training and it is clear that they have learned a great deal from their sessions. They still have a way to go but its nothing some practice and support can’t help solidify. Thanks again for your assistance and guidance.
Feeling motivated, inspired and empowered!
Dr Sharon is just amazing, I left the session feeling motivated, inspired and empowered. Her knowledge and experience of the subject was just out of this world, After the sessions I felt that I had the power to effect the change I need to see in my work.
Impressed!
I liked the workshop and was impressed by the way Sharon brought along a group that was pretty skeptical at the start to being very engaged and learning well. Job very well done. We would definitely work with Sharon in future to engage and empower our people.
