Testimonials
"My mind was blown when I realised the difference between teaching and coaching.
And then when I started to address the process of meetings with questions
(rather than providing solutions), my communication and relationships
improved."
Nigel Berridge, Head of Multi Media Marketing, Orange.
"My coach helped me to discover the difference between being
a manager and a director and then develop new relationships and disciplines
appropriate to my role as a director."
Graham Wretham, Operations Director, NICEIC.
"The exercises were very enlightening. Very useful."
Robert Stead, Creative Support Ltd.
"The workshop you led was a valuable experience for us. We were
exposed to a new way of approaching problems and thinking strategically,
and having an experienced scenario planning facilitator helped us move
forward very effectively in a short period of time. The workshop also
exposed some skills that we collectively need to consider improving in
our organization, which was a valuable result."
Chuck Howell, Consulting Engineer for Software Assurance, Center for Innovative
Computing and Informatics, The MITRE Corporation
"We spoke to Brefi Group about helping us prepare for 360 feedback
and development sessions with our Graduates. In one day I moved from feeling
apprehensive/nervous at the prospect to confident and keen! They really
helped us build on our own approach whilst ensuring it was appropriate
given the situation."
Hayley Chalcroft, HR Manager, Orange
