Reviews
Derek was very knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming to everyone in the group. He was positive and helpful and enthusiastic about the course content and the company he represents. I would recommend this course and your company to anyone requiring this type of training.

I personally found this course very informative. I am new to a Team Leader role and have not had to deal with any person on a difficult manner at this stage. So getting some well informed strategies to assist in the future was very useful with this course. Thanks to Derrick for the opportunity.
- Australian Communication Exchange
It is such a busy time of year & I wish I had more time to review the ground (& notes) covered by the course, to help consolidation. But I was determined to attend as it is an area that has already caused me problems, and I am very pleased I was able to rearrange my timetable so I could make it. And the notes (from my quick glance) are easy to read, review and absorb, tools I know that will be useful well down the track as I negotiate the inevitable challenging issues ahead of me. The energy, knowledge, empathy, commitment and common sense of the trainer was also impressive and an inspiration.

Our trainer Josh perfectly executed the session and his communication and enthusiasm was so engaging, which inspired everyone to get involved. It was such a brilliant session and the agents got so much out of it.
Josh was very engaging and informative - highly enjoyed his training session.
- Catch Group
Derrick was extremely sensitive to our needs on the day. He was very perceptive to subjects that we needed to speak about on the day, adjusting his training to suit us. Very well done.

The course content and how it was delivered has given a better and meaningful insight to the different personalities which exist within the team at the venue and therefore the general impact on how this can impact on the delivery of the requirements of the day to day business activities.
Anne was a great trainer. Very responsive and quick on her feet so was able to integrate what our team was saying and make the content relevant to our situations.
