Wesley Gransden, Kent Branch Chairman - Chartered Management Institute | Chartered Management Institute
“Having made contact with Steve via Twitter and seeing his background & previous connections with the CMI we invited him to do a presentation for us and members at our Kent Branch of the Chartered Management Institute. Steve delivered his presentation "Unlocking the Secrets of Motivation" at the Ramada in Maidstone with presence and expert delivery. It was very well recieved and we were rewarded with probably the highest feedback scores I think we have ever had. We look forward to further work with Steve in the near future. I highly recommend Steve for his presentations and training delivery. Kent Branch Chairman - Chartered Management Institute” August 6, 2011
Amechi Udo, , Euro Coach List Conference Coordinator | Euro Coach List Annual Conference
“Steve was a speaker and presenter at the 2010 Euro Coach List Conference. Steve spoke with passion and expertise on the panel debate 'You will fail as a coach if you do not have a niche' as well as presenting two packed sessions on the use of the motivational mapping tool. Steve made sure that he gave the best possible value to delegates as well as giving them the option to deepen and extend their professional relationship after the event. A straight talker, I believe Steve works with integrity and honesty to ensure clients get best value from,working with him - I certainly did.” November 5, 2010 ,
