Testimonials for Real Personal Effectiveness

Jeff Kelly, Learning and Development Manager, B&Q plc

At B&Q NLP is an important part of our Learning and Development Programme. The improvement in the performance, state, confidence and drive in delegates returning to the workplace is clearly visible and gains much positive feedback. What makes this course unique is the knowledge, expertise, passion and flexibility of the trainers. This creates a calm and relaxing environment which aids and supports each individual on the course.

Divisional Director, B&Q plc.

I wanted to extend my thanks again for the support you gave me on the programme. I am starting to tune my sensory acuity and have started to see some results – still find myself in broadcast mode a little too often and will need much more practice before I notice all the signs. I used the future goal visualisation technique with someone whom I am coaching on an ad-hoc basis and was surprised by the results – it is good to see this stuff working outside of the safe environment of the course.

Business Continuity Planning Manager - B&Q plc

Wow!! I had the first part of this course at the weekend and just wanted to feedback to you how fantastic it was. I went in with an open mind which allowed me to get as much out of the course as possible. I had so many light bulb moments! It is by far the best course I have been on and I can’t wait to go back for the second module.

I have never been in an environment before where I was able to be so open with complete strangers. I have learned so much about myself, I now understand why I am where I am and what is preventing me from achieving what I want to achieve. Really looking forward to putting into practice some of the techniques I have learned.

We will be getting in touch with you about others within our team going on the course.
