Feedback
I like the different examples of models that I can then apply in my working environment.(November 2023)
I loved how interactive it was. Meeting new people and being able to gain ideas from them. (September 2023)
I found the trainer herself very engaging, she was happy to repeat anything not understood but give clear objectives for each task. I found the training most useful and the breakout room tasks very helpful. (September 2023)
This was the first zoom course I have ever participated in and I was surprised how simple and easy it was to navigate. The information about the stress drivers was very interesting (June 2023)
It was very beneficial being able to do the course with people in similar situations so we could relate and share experiences. I have learnt new skills that I can use in my new role as manager. And overall feel I am better equipped at going into my managerial role.
