Some thoughts from managers who have experienced I-Act training directly and for their teams:
‘I thought the Zoom session was excellent and I am definitely looking for you to devise and run more for my team. As a fellow facilitator the Zoom session focussed the team’s attention more than being in a training room environment!’ Andy, National Operations Manager
‘The pace was right and catered for all levels and abilities’, Alison Manager in Birmingham
I feel more prepared for dealing with possible vulnerable team members and know when to stop and understand when something/a situation is beyond me. I now know the next steps. Thanks Jane’, Loraine Manager Northern Ireland
‘I always look forward to Jane’s sessions. They are always professionally delivered and interactive which makes them enjoyable as well as informative.’ Mark, National Account Manager
Jane is a first class facilitator, she makes each session impactful and enjoyable which is a really difficult balance to achieve, I would wholeheartedly recommend. ‘ Andy, National Account Manager ISS.
Employers investing in this training reduce the risk of staff burnout, staff churn, brand reputation and employment tribunals. The return on their investment compared to the potential costs of risks mentioned above, makes investing in I-act programmes essential, doesn’t it?
