However I was very happy with what we learnt during the training session." -SunnyKids

I highly recommend anyone who would like to improve their communication skills to attend this training course." -Transport for NSW
"The most useful thing I gained from this PD is be careful what you say, what you do and how you say it as perceptions leave a lot to be desired.

Mark was probably one of the best presenters/coaches I've ever come across in my 20 year office careers involving countless training sessions on various topics. His energy and demeanour is contagious, and he is very motivating and engaging. I got a lot of value out of the course and his time. I can't wait to put his tips and tricks to use in work AND personal life." -Chubb Insurance Australia Limited

He provided some wonderful learning games that proved to be humorous and engaging in a group setting. Over all a wonderful training day that has improved my communication skill set." -Community Gro
