Tee Up For Success
Effective coaching in organisations – a two day training programme
Every delegate on the recent two day programme held at Northop Country Park Golf Club said that they would recommend the course to others. Dave Carruthers, HR Manager with North West chemical processing company, Pentagon Chemicals added “The programme has given me a good framework and structure to use in the workplace, and it will help me to achieve my goals. Often training does not deliver solutions which you can use every day, but this course succeeded”.
Paul Smith, Director of Liverpool based marketing company Lorica Marketing, said of the programme “I found the delivery relaxed but professional, in a splendid setting with good food. The mix of outdoor/indoor provided a fresh and creative approach to this important subject”.
