Kennedys

Thank you for designing and delivering the program 'Marketing the Kennedys Image' which very effectively linked presenting, marketing and networking as a pathway to promote and differentiate Kennedys.

Our Lawyers were high in praise of the interactive nature of the PRIORITY ONE TRAINING program which provided an excellent mix of theory and practice.

To my mind the greatest testimonial service providers like Kennedys and PRIORITY ONE TRAINING have is that people come back to us again and again!

We would highly recommend PRIORITY ONE TRAINING and look forward to once again engaging your professional services.

Heller Ehrman

The 'Dealing with Difficult People' training program that PRIORITY ONE TRAINING tailored for Heller Ehrman provided a comprehensive framework and practical solutions to deal with difficult people in appropriate and effective ways.

The interactive training style promoted high interest, and drawing on the experiences of Heller Ehrman lawyers for discussion and strategy rehearsal had everyone fully involved.

PRIORITY ONE TRAINING brings a different and highly professional dynamic to training.

Heller Ehrman would most certainly recommend PRIORITY ONE TRAINING and we look forward to working with you again on other people development programs.

Deacons

Priority One Training was engaged by Deacons' Hong Kong office to provide a highly tailored, solutions oriented training program for senior associate lawyers as part of the firm's Path to Partnership training program.

Priority One Training's facilitator proved to be highly experienced, creative and engaging executive who quickly gained and sustained the interest and involvement of the lawyers in this important one day training program.

The lawyer's feedback confirmed that they and the firm received excellent value for the day.

Priority One Training is highly recommended.

Tailors courses to an organizations specific needs, with particular emphasis on business strategy and organizational vision and values… I have no hesitation in recommending PRIORITY ONE as an exceptional training provider

Leanne Peterson, Australian Training Manager, Fee for Service,

Leader Newspapers

PRIORITY ONE presented a flare that was incredibly well received from some very ‘tough’critics ……your facilitation of the programs (Be Creative) over the two days of our conference not only emphasized potential ideas but introduced a new wave of enthusiasm The content was interactive, solid and escalating thinking ‘outside the square. Your forte is that you generate ability for participants to ‘look within’ to develop new skills rather than teach them This truly reflects an edge in training that PRIORITY ONE possesses Congratulations on your unique style and brilliance in training, specifically in the area of ‘Creativity’

Nicki Arnold-Avery, Human Resources Manager

Fosters Group

The best thing about your approach is that you are willing to think outside the square and be that little bit different. I have taken away some invaluable skills, ideas and techniques …. I will be highly recommending you both within and outside Fosters.

We are delighted with the final product, and recognise the value of having an experienced trainer design the format and approach of the text as well as contributing significantly to the contents Your enthusiasm for the project, and ability to work in with our requirements in a tandem approach, were greatly appreciated

Gill Oscar, Senior Advisor

Your dynamic and energising presentation effectively delivered the strategy and ‘the magic of questions- the illumination of the answers’ certainly involved the conference delegates in challenging their patterns of behaviour…….. would most certainly recommend you as a dynamic conference speaker

City of Casey

The City of Casey was fortunate to have the services of PRIORITY ONE TRAINING to deliver two 'Dealing with difficult people' courses to Council staff.
...... enthusiasm was evident from our first meeting,...... took time to meet with the course organisers to explain training methods and gain an understanding of the roles of the staff who would be participating in the courses

Course participants were diverse: road maintenance workers, community service staff, administrative and technical officers, making the job quite challenging

The feedback received by the Human Resources Department was positive and included the following comments:

"great and I would recommend this trainer for other courses"
"an excellent and entertaining presenter"
"course was good, trainer was good"
"good and made everyone feel involved'"

I would be happy to consider PRIORITY ONE TRAINING for any future training needs for the City of Casey

Sylvia Siemensma, Human Resources Officer

Country Fire Authority - CFA

PRIORITY ONE TRAINING has regularly conducted 'Effective Presentations' skills training for CFA staff since 2003

The CFA members who have attended the 'Effective Presentations' course have provided the following feedback:

puts people at ease when they would otherwise feel anxious speaking in public forums

creates a relaxed and lively training environment

uses stimulating techniques to generate ideas and encourage active participation

My colleagues and I in the CFA's Professional Development Department have always found PRIORITY ONE TRAINING approaches training with a high level of energy and careful attention to detail

The 'Effective Presentations' training must be delivered to meet specific learning outcomes and assessment requirements. PRIORITY ONE TRAINING meets these requirements in a professional and competent manner and provides accurate and timely records regarding the training outcomes
