Delegate Feedback
A small selection of some of the stories of transformation from our seminars:
"A thought-provoking, pragmatic and commercially orientated workshop"
"I was amazed. I am still amazed."
"The course has made me 'go for it'"
"It was quite a turning point in my life"
"A thought-provoking, pragmatic and commercially orientated workshop"
"As business leaders, we focus on the importance of 'development' for our people, whilst all too often, investing in ourselves comes way down the list of priorities.
I was intrigued by the GQ™ (gender intelligence) aspect of Tracey's programme and was keen to understand how this translated into business relationships in the boardroom. So my intent was to go along and 'observe'.
It's fair to say that I had some initial reservations/cynicism around an 'all women' programme - team hugs/fire breathing feminism is not my bag! After all, isn't it the guys that we need to help understand how women do leadership 'differently'. My doubts were blown away with a thought-provoking, pragmatic and commercially orientated workshop - delivered professionally and at a blistering pace!
The tools/techniques and processes learnt will stay with me and the ongoing support/challenge from my fellow delegates, stimulated with great discipline by Tracey, will endure. Lasting friendships have been formed!
Truly one of the best 'return on investments' I've made in years... Thank you!"

"I was amazed. I am still amazed."
"As a genuinely sceptical person with regard to self assessment and motivation, I did not believe that I would gain enough from the course that could re-align my thoughts on the subject, let alone re-align my direction in life. However, I was amazed. I am still amazed. One and a half months on I still have motivation on the subject, which must be a first from a course for me and am continuing on my new life trail. I have also shared some aspects of the course with friends who have embraced the challenge and are now also thinking about their direction. Yesterday, I ordered my new planner!"

"The course has made me 'go for it'"
"When I came on the Creative Female Leader Course I felt frustrated, held back and didn't see how I could move forward within the company. This was mainly due to having a negative boss. Since then I have been promoted into a role that couldn't be filled even though it had been advertised for many months! In my old way of thinking I would have thought "It's too soon since my last move". Also the sector I have gone into has been standing still for some time. Instead of thinking "I don't want to be part of that culture" I thought that I could really make a difference and improve things for the company.
Tangible benefit? I could have left and they would have to pay lots more to replace me and still wouldn't have got anybody for the other position which would have resulted in more people leaving and probably the loss of some contracts. The course has made me "go for it!", be more organised in my life and also made me realise that having balance in your life is really important."

"It was quite a turning point in my life"
"I'm still putting into action the skills learnt on the course. I especially found the life mapping good as it helps me to focus on targets and half of my targets I have achieved so far. It helped me fight for pay increments and gave me back my sanity at a time where I was at my lowest ebb. The 'think positive thoughts about yourself' was great and I achieved a great feel good factor from that. However I would benefit from a 1 day refresher to refocus me on those positive vibes as at those dark times you can forget to think well of yourself. I probably talk about or think about the course most days and I can honestly say that it was quite a turning point in my life. I use the organisation process a lot and have found that my things to do list has dramatically reduced to a manageable level. The "touch a piece of paper only" once was brilliant and has saved me many many hours of pontificating and missing of deadlines."
