Minute Taking
This course covers the essentials to be an effective minute taker: organising the meeting, where to sit, active listening, note taking, recording styles and interrupting for clarity. Minute taking templates are provided to give attendees options to adapt back at work.
Handling Difficult People (Assertiveness Skills)
Of course, there are no difficult people, only difficult people situations! This one day course focuses on both mind and body in changing situations that are perceived as ‘difficult’.
Visualisation techniques combined with best practice techniques on how to deal with tricky situations raises awareness and confidence in attendees.
Time Management Training
Guaranteed results on this one folks or your money back! Recent attendees have reported a saving in time of 2 hours per day (Simon Turner, Carlsberg) and reductions in stress (Andrew Sharman, Airwair International) due to implementing tried and tested techniques to prioritise to achieve projects that matter and to know what work to leave undone.
Management Development Workshop
It is hard to manage others effectively if you are your main obstacle! This course focuses on empowering others to achieve their maximum potential. Each person will work on how they can increase output from their staff by communicating more effectively to achieve empowerment.
Train the Trainer Course
A 2 day course covering leading edge design, delivery and evaluation techniques. The psychology of how people learn, group dynamics and structuring a session to maximise learning is covered. Attendees have the opportunity to implement the learning on day 2 by running a short training session they are currently working on to the other attendees. Feedback is provided and delegates take away their video tapes for self-assessment.
Presentation Skills
Good presentation skills are vital in communicating ideas and for influencing others to follow your direction. In customer negotiations your presentation skills determine success or failure and large contracts hinge on your ability to put across your message. Once learned, good presentation skills reward you for the rest of your life. This course uses video filming and playback to provide feedback and help delegates see themselves as other do.
Further Information
 Our personal training courses have a maximum number of 12 participants attending (except Minute Taking and Train the Trainer where the maximum is 8). This enables the facilitator to give maximum attention to each participant.
Be assured that we won’t let you down. The Development Company does not cancel an open course date once a place is sold. Your diary date is safe with us as we put learning before profit.
Course fees include coffee / tea on arrival, mid-morning and mid afternoon, plus a fabulous build-your-own-butty lunch.

Is the course you are looking for not listed?
If you have a minimum of 2 people with the same need, we will open an open course for you as long as they attend the course on the same day. All we need is 8 weeks notice so that we can sell to other clients. All we ask is that once you have booked 2 candidates, you do not cancel anyone from that date.
