WHAT CLIENTS SAY

I have had the pleasure of working with Fiona for over three years. Fiona is one of the best Talent Development / L&D professionals I have worked with in my career. Her strengths are her passionate, energetic facilitation style and her drive for continuous improvement. Fiona is also an accomplished instructional designer and can see the big picture of how a learning intervention will impact her clients. As a professional, Fiona is prepared to challenge others and back what she believes in. She cares deeply about helping people grow in their careers as well as personally.

I have had the privilege of working with Fiona over the past 6 years. Her passion, energy and commitment to developing others is both energising and inspiring. Fiona is an accomplished facilitator, and outstanding coach and mentor, and has developed many leadership modules during our time together. She is naturally inquisitive, a strong collaborator and creates learning environments which foster experimentation and innovation. I would not hesitate in recommending Fiona in the areas of facilitation, programme design and leadership development. She is a professional and creative learning and development practitioner, and I would welcome the opportunity to work with Fiona again.

Fiona has been organising and facilitating training for my team for over 5 years. This training has led the team to learn more about themselves, better understand each other and how to effectively interact. These sessions have been tailored to our needs and have been passionately presented and extremely well received. Further to this, Fiona has been an active mentor for many people in my team (including me). During these mentor sessions Fiona has provided professional and highly insightful guidance and advice. I would highly recommend Fiona to any organisation.

I have attended several of Fiona’s training courses throughout my time at Aurecon and they have always been engaging, interactive, and valuable to my work. One training course that stands out as an example of Fiona’s expertise is the Speaker’s Club. The objective of the course is to become more comfortable with presenting in front of an audience, and teaching the use of different tools for effectively communicating information. We had attendees of all different skill levels, from mumbling and never looking up from their written notes to those who were mixing props with charismatic delivery, and despite the disparate experience levels Fiona tailored the sessions so that each attendee would leave with something meaningful to work on.

I have enjoyed every minute of your training sessions and it is rare that you find someone so talented, dedicated and passionate coach / trainer such as yourself who brings everyone in the room to life, engages everyone so well and keeps everyone interested even after the sessions. I’ve seen even the most introverted disengaged person talk about your sessions to everyone who would listen for months afterwards.
