"Andy was fantastic – a knowledgeable, engaging and entertaining speaker who captivated the audience from start to finish. The feedback I have had from attendees has been universally positive."
Simon Hickie, HR Director, Rightmove Plc
"Dave’s presentation and subsequent informal Q & A session was by far and away the best part of the whole 3 days. It was highly relevant to the nature of our ‘Event’, Project Management in general and was expertly delivered."
John Owen Senior Programme Manager, Capgemini
“Dave took the participants on our programme up the mountain with him through a series of images, videos and descriptions. He very naturally and effectively linked this into leadership and got across some important learning lessons. His tale was inspirational for us and the slight twist in the tale deepened the learning. He was able to spend the entire day with us which was great in terms of participants being able to talk further to him and to run networking sessions. Had we realised how good he was we would actually have built further group work sessions around his presentation.”
Sarah Atkinson, Director - Tribal Group
"Excellent presentation...there was a lot of team / leadership pointers that are applicable to any business - I particularly liked the 'leadershift' concept. Sean used the word team throughout the presentation which again endorsed in my mind what the 200+ people in the audience should 'all be about'. Conflict within teams was discussed and I particularly liked how Sean focused the team on immediate objects that all linked to the overall goal i.e. incremental steps that are mentally manageable but all contrive to achieve the ultimate prize"
Alan Turner, Faculty of Health and Social Care Business Manager, Anglia Ruskin University
"Just meeting Karen is an uplifting experience at a personal level, her passion and enthusiasm are bound to rub off on anyone who works with her. She is a natural communicator & coach, working equally effectively one to one, with small teams and in large group situations."
Steve Spreckley , Internal Change Consultant, Shell Europe
“Ian gave the LTA team a great, inspirational talk at the National Tennis Centre.

"Andy was the most inspirational speaker I have ever listened to. His presentation was a perfect way to finish the event - on a high. There were so many ways we could link this to our job."
Major J D Foster, HQ Educational and Training Service (Army)
“Sean's content was a great fit to our development programme and was exactly what we were after. His workshop was inspiring, entertaining and included a wealth of lessons on the challenges of high performance team working.”

"Fast-moving, inspirational and humorous and left our colleagues wanting to hear more about the incredible personal achievement of mind over matter"

"The talk was excellent and inspiring! We've had masses of positive feedback. Tim adapted his talk well to suit the mixed audience of climbers, mountaineers, fellwalkers and general outdoor enthusiasts. We even had some elderly members of the public dotted around the audience who found the talk amusing and enjoyable also!
This was a pioneering event for us this year and we're now thinking about ways in which we can make this happen again in the future.Thanks for all you're help."
Mark Holroyd
Newcastle University Fellwalking Society Secretary
"Ian pitched his talk perfectly to our age group (8-13) and kept all 250 children gripped with his accounts of helping Sir Ranulph Fiennes and Major Phil Packer with their respective climbs of the Eiger and El Capitan. His modest, easy manner, together with the photographs and video clips provided a perfect balance. I would happily recommend him to any school."
John Baugh, Headmaster, Dragon School, Oxford
“Thank you so much for the excellent presentation you gave to our Year 11 students earlier this month. Our aim was to find an 'inspirational' speaker who could provide our pupils with 'food for thought' and demonstrate that determination and a will to succeed is important in life...you fitted the bill brilliantly!...Thank you so much for the positive impact you have had on these young people. I am certain your message has got through to them and will remain with them as they progress through life.”
Lady Manner's School - Bakewell
"We invited Ian to talk to 20 students as part of a skills training summer school and he gave an enthralling account of several of his expeditions in a down-to-earth and very humourous way. He managed to link many different aspects of planning and carrying out an expedition to everyday decision making and teamworking skills whilst still giving an exciting and awe-inspiring presentation. I think it is worth hiring him for his footage alone, let alone his ability to recount a story so well."
Dr. Eleanor John, University of Leeds
"The children and staff all thought it was an immensely worthwhile visit; we all learned a lot and the photographs and videos really helped to bring your words to life. We were impressed by how well you paced your talk, and how appropriately you pitched it to the nine and ten years olds that made up your audience; not an easy task!"
Year 5 teacher, Dobcroft Primary School
"Tim was inspirational. He spoke eloquently, elegantly and with huge amounts of infectious enthusiasm about his outlook on life. The pupils were held spell bound for nearly ninety minutes and the questions flowed afterwards. I recommend Tim most highly."
Ian Davenport, Head Master, Blundell's School
"If you want inspiration, then look no further than Andy K. He had our boys on the edge of their seats with his tales of adventure and triumph over adversity in the most amazing stuations you can imagine."
Mike Toley, Verulam Boys School
