What our clients have said…
“I’ve known two exceptional facilitators in all my years in corporate life—one is a woman in her 60s who’s been doing this all her life and the other is Jill.”
Executive Director—Australia Council for the Arts
“I thought I knew a lot about MBTI before I came to this program and I wasn’t sure what I would learn. This program opened up a world of possibilities I didn’t know existed.
Senior Consultant and participant in Advanced Influencing—Ernst & Young
“I was riveted by Dan’s presentation. His war stories kept me on the edge of my seat, and I really wanted to win that hour of his time prize! This guy is clearly an absolute master at negotiation.”
MBA student, MGSM and Sales Manager—International software company
“I usually find courses like this too warm and fuzzy. This one was excellent and provided practical techniques I can use straight away.”
Senior finance person and participant in Effective Meetings—Clayton Utz
“When I was a General manager at an international Telco, we ran everybody through a standard MBTI program. The results were less than we wanted, and now that I have done this program, I know why. This program truly increases understanding through a focus on who you are being, as opposed to what you are doing.”
Technology Director and participant in Advanced Influencing—Telstra
“Jill’s energy during the program was unrelenting. She is the best facilitator this firm has had.”
Senior project controller and participant in Influencing Skills—Deloitte Consulting
“I want to express sincere thanks to Dan Chivers on behalf of myself and my team. We engaged Dan when we found ourselves stuck in a difficult negotiating position. A successful outcome was vital to the future of our business and yet we found ourselves negotiating with an international associate who was being highly unreasonable and seemingly intransigent. Dan’s analysis of the situation was insightful and his crafting of the strategy was excellent. His guidance was invaluable during the execution phase.
We secured a superb agreement which added 50% profit annually to our business. It was an outcome I would not have believed possible.
I would be pleased to discuss this with anyone who might want to confirm the effectiveness of Dan’s services.”
Executive Director—IBT International
“I realise how I use confusion to hold me back and keep me feeling like a victim. I can now translate that to curiosity and empower myself.”
Finance Manager and participant in Advanced Influencing—IAG
“This is unlike any other MBTI course in the best way possible—you learn about yourself and also experience others in an extremely insightful, exciting and fun way. A safe, non-threatening and challenging environment was created. It was nothing Jill said, it was more the way she was and her energy.”
Participant in Teaming With Insight—Macquarie Bank
“Jill’s involvement was invaluable, in that she provided positive reinforcement to everyone in all teams and helped us focus on what we were meant to be doing.”
HR professional and participant in Vision/Values—Macquarie Bank
“Dan has a real hands on approach. His war stories demonstrate he really knows his stuff. You can tell by the way he mentors and consults around negotiation.”
International Partner—Phillips Fox
“This program stands head and shoulders above other MBTI programs. What made it different was that it went beyond the 4 letters and explored and explained what preferences actually mean and how to use them.”
HR Director and participant in Advanced Influencing—Australia Council for the Arts
“Jill was born to do this. Her passion for the topic is clear. Excellent management of content & flow on the fly. Very effective. Knew how to pick my brain.”
Participant in national Quality Client Service—Phillips Fox
“I never knew there was so much to creating and projecting a positive image. I was quite skeptical going into this session and never knew the depth of the topic. Jill really brought it alive and her knowledge is astounding. Great facilititator—one of the best I have ever seen.”
Team Leader and participant in Professional Image—Merrill Lynch
“Great delivery. Developed fantastic rapport with the group and made everyone feel relaxed and ready to participate in any and all activities. The day was innovative, challenging, rewarding and fun. I couldn’t have asked for a better result.”
Director and participant in Unique Team Behaviours
“Dan has made a great contribution as a guest speaker on commercial negotiation on a number of memorable occasions over the past few years. He is always a hit with our streetwise MBA students. They can be a tough audience to please, but so far Dan has had a 100% strike rate. His sessions are lively, at times confronting, information-rich and always entertaining. In addidtion to engaging Dan for his speaking work, I have personally consulted him on a number of occasions, as a member of my negotiation brains trust. His advisory style always cuts through to the key issues leaving me empowered to take the next step myself. Dan is a trusted advisor.”
Lecturer—Macquarie Graduate School of Management, NSW Australia
“This workshop was very practical, without being dry and Jill was very open, approachable and inspiring. She’s very polished but with heart.”
Senior participant in Scoping Skills
