I think it could be a difficult course for someone with no managerial experience. Personally I am at the very start of a potential managerial journey. Nevertheless i enjoyed the presentations, material and break out sessions, all of which i found interesting and (being new to any managerial / supervisory role) educational I believe we should have had the commitment planner circulated beforehand and gather that might have been the intention? But not sure.

This course really does give you time to actually ‘take time’ to reflect on yourself and to help you structure your thoughts about your personal progression and ambitions.

A thought provoking course that has certainly provided me with a number of useful tips to help with my career progression. It stimulates a lot of self reflection and helps you to understand the areas in which you need to improve / focus on to reach the next level/s.

Overall the course was really good, but some of the impact was lost through the course being on zoom and not being able to take part in person. Whilst Anne and Paul were excellent facilitators, the course handbook could have benefitted from being adapted better to online sessions to use as a point of reference. There was a lot of really relevant content and I will be using this on a regular basis in the future.

Great course. Both trainers are well versed in what they do. Open to ideas and questions. Great!

More time and focus on negotiation tactics and skill would have been useful.

The coloured personalities is always a good one to do and helps bring people together. This was probably the most important bit for me, as this course means we interact with others around the business which we wouldn't see during COVID.

I really enjoyed the module - i've never spent much time previously thinking about my personal brand. However today allowed me to allocate some time to think about my own brand, and how that applies to my daily work/career.

It's hard to explain but I didn't get as much out of today as usual. The morning just wasn't landing and it's hard to explain. I suppose all I could think about was if you're overwhelmed and stretched in work, that you not replying to people is negatively affecting your personal brand and as Peter said, could affect future job prospects. I got more out of the last hour or so based around self reflection and tangible steps. a minor one, probably time to update the Coke vs Pepsi analogy with something more modern?
