Written Reviews

Such an awesome experience. Attended a course on "influence and persuasion" that was insightful and practical. Concepts were well explained with easily relatable examples. Activities were fun and directly applied the skills being discussed. Our facilitator, Steven, was entertaining and captured our attention and interest. Thank you Colin, Steven and team. Would definitely recommend.

We as a team attended a Zoom Emotional Intelligence for Leaders training with Heidi Haywood and found the training to be excellent. Upon booking the training, I heard some grumbling (why do we need this) when the team was told, yet when we had finished the training, there were smiles all around. We as a team felt that we had learned so much about each other, which lead us to understand behaviors and leadership styles better. I strongly recommend this training to all

On behalf of our team I would like to say thank you to Aptitude Management for organising such a great day. I had a positive experience from my request for training until the final event. Our representative was helpful and patient when I had to make last minute changes and always followed up with my requests. The trainer was also excellent and kept the whole team entertained throughout the training. I am extremely pleased with the outcomes. Will use again thank you.

I am writing this email to thank my trainer Colin for the outstanding course. I have attended many courses throughout my career and by far this was the best I have ever been to. I especially loved his energy and knowledge of DISC. This was a course in communication and he practiced everything that he taught. The rest of us agreed we would welcome him back in the future.

There is no tool for development more effective, than taught by a true leader. Thank you for the training and for creating a great platform for learning, powerful leaders make organisations powerful.
