“For my part, I can only thank you for your steadfast support of the Company over the 10 to 11 years that you have provided your most professional services to the Company during my period of service, at least; I am grateful, too that all those members of our staff who attended your excellent courses have been able to benefit from the high standard of training and development which you delivered and from which they will have benefited.”
“Phil has excellent knowledge and presentation skills. A GREAT TRAINER”
“Dear Phil, Thanks so much for making our week on the management course incredible. Thanks to you and your team, we all will take back some valuable experiences that we will be able to hold always. It was a great group and I feel lucky to have been a part of it.
Thanks again to you all – it was so nice to work with you all.”
“Phil. You and your team are tops. I am just getting ready to meet with my boss and I intend to give him a boat-load of positive feedback. This was an incredibly important intro for my professional career now developing here in Europe”
I would like to say a very big thank you for the excellent MBTI workshop you recently delivered to some of our sales team members. I agree that we would all benefit from attending such a course. My team members were especially complimentary not only about the way the course was delivered but also about how much they each individually gained from attending it
“Thanks to everyone at Coachwise for designing, organising and implementing a superb training meeting for our sales team. Feedback both during the event and afterwards has been excellent and we are already seeing an impact on sales as team members enthusiastically apply the techniques you shared with us.”
“You are clearly very knowledgeable about the subject and you covered an extraordinary amount of ground without getting bogged down in theory. You provided a great insight into business development and we now have some very exciting ideas to put into practice”
“I would like to thank you for the excellent presentation skills workshops that you completed for us during May and June. The feedback from the delegates and the managers present has been superb. Your personalised approach and constructive manner were of particular note. We are extremely pleased that all of the delegates made a demonstrable improvement in their presentation skills and look forward to working with you again in the near future.”
“I hired Phil to assist with the development of a customized, blended learning Presentation Skills course for my company and to provide a train-the-trainer session to the three staff who would be teaching this program to our staff.
Phil is very personable, professional and was a pleasure to work with. He makes an art out of presenting material, but is also skilled at breaking it down into it’s essential components so that it can be sucessfully taught to highly technical professionals.
He took onboard our specific needs and helped us put together an excellent program that has been very highly rated by our staff. He was also very careful with our budget for this project, which was highly appreciated given our finite resources”
