If you’ve been following me for a while now, you’ll know that I often talk about the social aspect of being human and how it affects the way we work. That’s because I really do think that it’s key to business success, and is becoming increasingly important in a competitive and interconnected world. Quite simply, it’s our ability to collaborate that sets the human species apart, and ever increasingly, it’s the companies that harness this power appropriately that do well in the business arena.

I wanted to thank you for the TMS workshop you facilitated for us on Friday.

All the Team Managers were so impressed by the day – what they learnt about themselves and each other and your ability to create a connection with each of them during the day. The success of the session was really due to having you there facilitating and working with them. Thanks
