'I had the pleasure of working with John when he delivered “Soft Skills in Hard Places” to our team. The team and I all benefited greatly from this training and it has helped improve the working dynamic within the team.

John is extremely approachable which meant on a personal level felt I was able to ask him about my own personal development which he has helped greatly with. I hope our paths will cross again but in the meantime I would have no hesitation in recommending John, if a company needed his services as he always delivers.'
