During this time Lisa met the diverse training needs of a wide range of employees from front line customer facing staff up to members of the Board of Directors.

Lisa has several years of line management experience and has managed a multi-million £ budget. Her background within the highly competitive and dynamic retail industry ensures that the development activities she provides are both practical and realistic.

Since setting up her own training consultancy in 2002 Lisa uses her highly flexible approach to design and deliver innovative development solutions, which are tailored to her clients needs. Lisa loves the buzz she can create in the group training environment. This enables her to create an engaged response to what people are learning. It also encourages the practical application to come out from the participants themselves by them feeling confident to feed off each others best practices and ideas. This remedies much of the criticism levied at training as being interesting but not workable.

Working on a one to one is however an opportunity for people to have a truly tailored experience. It also avoids wasting time tackling issues which are not relevant. Often this is the only environment where people feel they can be honest and therefore huge progress can be made with some long standing issues. Lisa always seeks to ensure that her clients are clear and confident about exactly what they are practically going to do when they get back to the work-place.

She is a NLP (Neuro linguistic Programming) Master Practitioner and is qualified to administer the Myers Briggs Type Indicator step 1 and 11, The FiroB psychometric tool and the Emotional Intelligence Competency Inventory.
