Organisations need to thrive to survive and so any training and development intervention needs to be

as well as delivering solutions that give the client the outcome they are looking for!

Now more than ever, as we emerge from lockdown and have to adjust to the ‘new normal’, and the challenges this means for business development and sustainability; as well as perhaps managing people in new ways too.

What Existing Customers Say:

Florence and I worked closely to design a bespoke Leadership course for our management population.  This was an area that we recognised needed investment and Florence was so helpful in helping us to pinpoint the areas of focus.  The course was designed not just to ‘fix problems’ but to get under the skin of issues to help our managers think differently, approach things in new ways and really evolve as leaders.  The feedback from the delegates has been great to hear and we are seeing new and valuable skills, such as coaching, being put into practice throughout the organisation which is having a transformative impact on how we do business.

“Best non-technical course I have ever been on”.

Well structured, applicable to everyday role, applicable to current teams…..Feedback now readily given amongst the team. Team members more open to receiving feedback, as well as the general improvement of the structure of the feedback given as well. We even have an acronym for FLORENCE in our management meetings:

“First Listen Or Respect Everyone Needs a Change to Engage”

You’re definitely a verb as well, also called “having a Florence moment” as well!

Florence’s seemingly effortless presenting/facilitating style makes all of her courses a joy.  The ease with which she guides us (the students) through the various theories and practices is awe inspiring.  Attending any of her courses has many benefits for me not least the learning that you take in the subject matter as it also includes the opportunity to learn, experience and model her own facilitating style.  One course attendee on this course referred to us taking a little part of Florence away with us.

Florence has a real sense of ease and passion in the way she delivers the sessions.  Her knowledge is unsurpassable and she challenges and provokes thinking in a way that engages rather than shuts down, which I have experienced of other people’s courses

The programme is excellent. It enables you to grow as a person and in NLP Mastery. Florence runs a tight ship in terms of learning and practice ensuring learned practice is of a professional standard.
