David Norman
Non-Executive Director at Foxen Griffiths
“Having almost given up in my search for a quality facilitator to work with the main plc board, I was delighted to have John recommended to me. From his first exposure to the Leadership Team, through the work with us in preparation for the main event and his performance at the Board Awayday John only ever exhibited the utmost professionalism. He is extremely skilled in dealing with people at all levels including the most senior but in a friendly and collegiate fashion. I have used his skills as a coach and facilitator again since then and I have no hesitation in recommending him to you” 28 May 2010

David Peake
Commercial Director at Invensys
 “I've used John to facilitate a couple of workshops with my largest clients. These events have been tremendous successes and a few days work created more opportunities than years of strategic account management. The benefit of an independent facilitator cannot be underestimated. A neutrally hosted workshop creates the environment to share open and honest views with no boundaries or preconceptions. I believe John's preparation and pre-workshop activity contribute significantly to the successful outcomes enjoyed. Our clients have always enjoyed these events and passed on their thanks. My Company has just booked John for another workshop with multiple clients.” 27 July 2010

As a facilitator, John is second to none. He handled some 'prickley' subjects from some outspoken individuals professionally and was able get to the underlying issues. He contributed to identifying solutions and gained agreement amongst the participants. Very effective result and I have booked another 2 follow-up sessions.” 28 May 2010

Martin Parrott
Head of Executive Resourcing, Talent & Leadership at AXA
 “I engaged John to facilitate a large group of people who we needed to get on board with a significant cultural change. We needed somebody who could facilitate a group of 80+ people and whose style, although supportive, would also be challenging and uncompromising. John showed that he had just what we needed showing great skill and care in bringing everybody along the journey and keeping the focus on the outcome. I would recommend John to anybody who is looking for somebody who not only understands personal and organisational change but has the skills and techniques to make it happen.” 28 Septeber 2010
