A nice bit of news for a Monday morning - I made it through the director process! Thank you so much for all your help, your coaching was absolutely invaluable to prepare me in such a short amount of time.
Thanks so much!

What a brilliant, if exhausting 2 days. One of the best things I have been involved with in my career. It has changed me, I think for the better forever. It will also help my team and people I work with on a regular basis. Have used some of the learning already.

Once again I would like to thank you for an absolutely amazing session. It was pitched at the level we needed and has engaged so many who would not normally have been able to be reached. Thanks so much again for what you have done for us. Stellar!

The drama was not only informative and thought provoking, but very entertaining and I have rarely seen the audience so engaged.

Practive have really understood the culture at our organisation and what we were trying to achieve with the programme. Their courses are always evaluated well, and our delegates really appreciate taking time out to reflect on this important skill. The forum theatre and skills of the actors take the experience to another level. We only have a small budget for development but feel like this is worthwhile investment as Practive provide something that other facilitators cannot.

I honestly found everything useful. It was fast paced & nothing bored me. (I am easily bored so this is a great achievement)

I commissioned a series of workshops with Practive to provide participants with input and skills about presentation and impact. The sessions were delivered to high quality and were universally well evaluated by participants. As a company, I have no hesitation in recommending them. They are professional and responsive. They bring energy and creativity to their input and provide a skilled facilitated workshop which allows participants to engage and explore their ideas and issues in a safe, constructive environment. We’ve given repeat business to Practive because they have delivered successfully and cost effectively for us.

The course was excellent throughout. Never felt taxing considering the context & expectations. Everyone was treated with dignity & respect & honesty. Facilitation fabulous.

What I really appreciated and helped me was your very warm and genuine presence - this made it easy for me to be "real" myself and to be open about some of my anxieties/fears; your exceptional listening skills - I thought you really paid attention to the language we used and worked with how it was for us, avoiding your own interpretations. This helped me to take my own concerns and my own strengths seriously and to feel confident in my ability; your appropriate sharing of your own experience - it really helped when you shared some of your own experiences (good and bad) and I thought this was balanced well with your listening and attending to us.

Expert facilitators & coaches. Allowed us to work on a real issue. Real change in the group dynamics. Allowed the group to face up to what was stopping us working well & go away with tools that will enable us to do more of this in the future.

I wish it could have been longer! I have raved about the workshop to family, friends and colleagues. The course made a profound impact upon me. It has taught me a great deal, in terms of advice and how to manage my anxiety. I truly believe it will enhance my impact and I am looking forward with great anticipation to developing what I learned and putting it into practice.

For someone who usually dreads this sort of thing and feels it is a waste of time, I was amazed at how much I enjoyed it; how much I got out of it and how much I have grown as a result. A fun, practical, interactive, memorable experience as opposed to the usual boring stuffiness will ensure sustained learning.

I have rarely seen participant evaluations as positive as those received for Practive. The national evaluation of the overall development programme, undertaken by Office for Public Management bears this out. The impact for individuals has been significant. For many middle managers this has been the first time that they have had individual attention and feedback on the softer skills such as presentation, influencing, handling conflict, emotional intelligence. The Practive approach enabled both diagnosis of development needs and someone to one work with participants to start the development journey in terms of the specific priorities identified for each individual.

Really excellent feedback. The participants clearly found every part of the course challenging and relevant, which led to a great deal of learning. Well done to the whole team involved. Fantastic! 99% overall!

The workshop was highly valuable and memorable (beyond my expectations and outcomes). It was the most engaging valuable periods of personal/professional development investment I’ve attended for a very long time.

This has been the most valuable piece of training/development I've done in 20 years in the Civil Service. I rarely give things 10/10, but this workshop deserved it. I wish I'd had this experience years ago!

I felt the actors (certainly mine) were seriously engaged in our learning; their role play was brilliant, and they provided thoughtful, tactful and unmistakably clear feedback to help us improve our game. Overall an outstandingly valuable and enjoyable day.

Excellent tutors/facilitators, who worked so well together and really made an impact on me. The agenda across the 2 days was clearly planned and I was conscious that they had prepared meticulously, however the individual sessions did not seem rigid and felt organic (as though conforming to the pace and needs of the group). A rare skill which made the course all the more enjoyable.

Always a bit dubious of the benefits of 'soft' skills training. However, this course was excellent. It was tough and demanding but think I learnt a lot and I’m confident that the whole appraisal process will be more beneficial and meaningful to me.
