Stepping into Management Programme Reviews

This was a fantastic course and Diane's teaching and delivery was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic that it was a pleasure to attend every session. The course materials were thorough and provide and excellent reference guide to look back on once the course is finished. The weekly 'prizes' of self improvement books were a great incentive for everyone to contribute. Most importantly, I feel like I am a better manager for having attended the course, and I now have lots of new tools to use to help myself and my team.

Brilliant course - really informative and fun. Diane was exceptional and the coarse material is very useful. Really interesting to hear reports off colleagues too, and a great opportunity to get to know everyone a bit better.

Diane is an extremely engaging trainer. I thoroughly enjoyed the course, it was fun, thought provoking and I feel that it will help me become a better manager and leader. Diane also provides support outside the training and she was able to help me through a difficult situation at work. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending Diane to any business.

I had been managing a team for 6 years and prior to going on the course had a general reluctance because I felt I didn't need it. I freely admit I was wrong, some of the course content has made a significant positive effect on my team which has both benefitted them and myself. Delegation, effective communication, coaching under performance are some of the areas I improved almost overnight. Diane's infectious enthusiasm and delivery style turned my initial cynicism into the positive attitude which underpins all aspects of the course. The fact that 12 managers from our business attended following around 30 predecessor's is a testament to the positive impact the training has on a business which continues to grow year on year.

Well delivered, engaging, ran at a good pace, Diane was extremely enthusiastic, positive and knowledgeable making the course fun and interactive for all. Very inspirational, gained many fantastic skills that will help now and through the rest of my career. Excellent!..

Diane is just great! I always came away from the course in high spirits and ready to take on any challenges. Not only did Diane engage all parties but also brought the fun element as well. I would highly recommend the management development course to others within my business. I thoroughly enjoyed being part of such a great course!

The course taught me practical processes I could use to help motivate my team better. Diane practices what she preaches and first seeked to understand us individually, I think this helped her to teach us really well. The course was crammed full of really useful stuff from start to finish, was well presented, challenging and fun.

Usually I never give anything full marks, as there is always a little room for improvement, but in this case everything was spot on. This includes the course handouts & personalised folder, the books to compliment the course, and suggestions for further post course reading. Dianes enthusiasm and motivation was consistently high across each of the monthly sessions, and this was reflected by everyones desire to contribute to the sessions and coursework. Each of us agreed that we could see everyone change and improve throughout the training. This course is a must for every company as they will 'finally' get to understand themselves and their colleagues, which will strengthen any company from within. A company is only as good as its output from its people. This training will enable you to improve this.

The DMM course provided the team with support, education and inspiration throughout. The sessions were fun and Diane has a special quality to get the best out of people and get them believing in themselves. The guidance provided has enabled me to approach my work with more dynamism. I have realised every meeting counts and every conversation counts. I now have a more developed skill set to help me deal with scenarios to do with Mentoring, Stress, Appreciation and I feel I am better equipped to lead. I have always tried to lead by example – but I feel I am better equipped to do this more successfully now. I would recommend this course to anyone managing / influencing people who aims to develop themselves and their teams respectively.

Hard work. Well worth it. Great encouragement through out. Well done Diane.
