Reviews
Because of the Covid situation a lot of people had to reschedule their course date, so I ended up on a course (me in person) with just one other course-taker over ZOOM. James was amazing, he made sure we went through everything that we wanted to know. I particularly loved the role playing and the drawing on the wall đ
I am continually putting things into practice and the course has really helped with everything. I really enjoyed the conflict management course, and it was great it being a small group too â I feel we really worked well together. The delivery was great and it was amazing we could use our real-life examples and see how we could improve them. The relaxed environment made me feel at ease and the knowledge and skills shared have really boosted my confidence.Â
Great team of instructors. Very helpful course with rich content, fun and realistic exercises and with lots of tips and tools to apply.
