"Your presentation on Influencing Clients to Accept Change was a highlight at both our Niagara Falls and Vancouver regional conferences this year. In fact, our members' feedback about the lessons learned during these sessions prompted us to ask you to do some more intensive and industry-specific work with us at our 2005 national conference in September. Thank you!

Carol West, President, Canadian Society of Customs Brokers


“Robert, you have introduced Providence Continuing Care Centre to a very effective Change Management program. Two elements a external training program must meet are ensuring the session content meets the needs of the organizations culture and importantly ensuring the trainer 'fits' within the organization. On both accounts you exceeded expectations as our workshop evaluations demonstrated. Your Change Leadership and Communications programs have been very beneficial in giving managers the skills, knowledge and confidence to lead change. We look forward to continued work with you.”

Lauri Prest, Director of Training and Organizational Development, Providence Continuing Care Centre, Kingston, Ontario

“Robert, thank you for a great team building day at our 2004 Benefits Practice Meeting. Virtually everyone who participated in the session gained a better understanding of their primary strengths, motivators, and working style. More importantly, we learned how to respond to the motivations of our colleagues and clients.

Your dynamic presence and belief in the process added considerable credibility which, for a group of actuaries, was essential to get the buy in we needed for the session to succeed. We look forward to working with you again in the future.”

Jill Wagman, Eckler Partners Ltd.

“I just went through the evaluations – they were excellent. Your teaching/presentation skills and knowledge of the topic were rated 4.90 out of a possible 5.00 – thanks again for doing an excellent job. I do hope we get a chance to work more together in the near future.”

Rita Greenridge, Program Coordinator, Centre For Leadership, Government of Ontario

“Thanks for presenting at our National Sales Conference. Your presentations on ‘Win-Win Negotiating’ and ‘Partnering Skills” were highly stimulating and very relevant to our workplace. The audience was fully engaged and post conference evaluations rated your session very highly. You made a real effort to understand our needs and inherent workplace challenges. Participants have subsequently applied the tools that you presented. I am sure we will use you again in the future”
