"We had extremely positive feedback from all the senior managers that worked with your facilitator and they would all welcome the opportunity to work with you again. They found the session to be energetic, thought provoking and welcomed the fact that it moved at pace. From an organisational point of view we were very pleased with the outcome. We welcomed the opportunity to give the facilitator a thorough pre-briefing prior to the session and found that on the whole the outputs facilitated were in line with our thinking. I am sure that had they not have been the facilitator would have been more than able to pin-point the underlying issues resulting in the non-alignment and could have assisted both parties in finding some common ground. We are now in a position where we are able to implement changes to how we operate with the senior managers with the full buy-in and agreement of all concerned. Thank you!" Karen Hailes, HR Director, PDSA
