I've always viewed organisational politics as negative so it was really interesting to see the positive side to this. I also will find the time management matrix useful. I think the balance between achieving self promotion and whilst maintaining a lower self interest is an interesting concept. Lou and Anne help keep the sessions really engaging with some great stories to keep us focused virtually.

Thoroughly enjoyed the course, it was brilliant to learn some really practical tips we can go away and try and practice. Commitment planners are a great idea, really looking forward to working on these with my pace pod group.

Excellent course, just enough theory and colleague participation - some great ideas and tools to start reviewing what i do immediately. The PACE idea and being held accountable with other colleagues is great this will ensure everyone will adopt the new way of thinking, and approaching different issues. Excited to review my existing to do list to identify those things that can be delegated and to start 'protecting my diary' thank you

Top class course and presenters, with very relevant subjects. It's good to be able to identify things that you are already doing subconsciously and then get a conscious understanding of them. Particularly enjoyed the PROBED session as it gives great structure around the questions, so now need to practice that. Thanks.

Quality time (and helped me meet some new people)

Great session and also a great facilitator to sharing views and perspectives on ways to see the alternatives in which we can manage, not just a set way, more a use of the balance around Leadership and Management. Supportive statements and techniques shared and already have the 'How to Manage' book on order from Amazon!

Excellent tools to use and make you really think about yourself and positive changes to make. Worked really well via zoom and breakout rooms.

sincerely excellent. A much needed reality check that my confidence wobbles are in my control to fix. Great tools to use to do this and a welcome opportunity to have a day to take stock.

Thoroughly enjoyed course. Many of the quotes and examples resonated. Thought the guest speaker was insightful and very credible. Enjoyed mix of colleagues In different breakout groups although we struggled with some of the short timings.

- Having the workbook sent out physically has really helped - The breakout rooms worked really well virtually Minor improvements: - Some of the quotes could be shown for longer to allow delegates to write them down - Perhaps having an outline of timings at the beginning of the day would be useful
