What our clients say

David Yudis, Director, Global Learning and Development - Disney Consumer Products

Julie Burdett, People Development Trainer - Marston's plc

“Steve Rhodes has been well received within the business and we continue to use his experience and excellent training credentials.”

Rick Woodward, Learning and Development Director - Kimberly Clark

"Kimberly-Clark has worked with Expression for Growth since 2006 and our experiences have been universally positive. The newly designed senior leader programme for Kimberly-Clark called "Inspirational Leadership" has successfully launched both in the UK and in North America receiving enthusiastic feedback and strong support.

"Expression for Growth’s facilitators are lively trainers, who reinforce messages about inspiration through their own style and behaviour. Alex Selwood in particular responded well to the different needs of each group of participants, was a great source of energy and kept the course moving at a fast moving pace. The facilitators use many interesting training approaches from video clips, discussions, simulations and management exercises - all of which are linked together by a clear content framework.

"I have been delighted with Expression for Growth’s work in Kimberly-Clark - and I know from senior leader recommendations that the programme is significantly benefiting individuals in our organisation and has been identified as a 'right of passage' for our high potential leaders."

Tony Brownlee, Operations Director (South) Sandwich Category - Greencore Group Plc

"High Impact Leadership impacts the individual, the team and the business in a truly multidimensional way through creating better communication, better awareness, better team dynamics and better leadership. I have worked with Expression for Growth on three occasions over the past 8 years, and each time there has been a significant impact on overall business effectiveness through the investment in the High Impact Leadership programme.

"These performance improvements are the result of a combination of factors and cultural change, for example, Greencore's central manufacturing strategy is based upon Lean Manufacturing (now into our 4th year of Lean) - and High Impact Leadership has been a key element designed to compliment the overall 'Lean Greencore' programme. This flexibility was enabled by Expression for Growth's ability to tailor the High Impact Leadership to suit the strategy and culture of the business - a key reason with this programme stands the test of time!"

Frank Teunissen, Managing Director - Dyson BV

"We’ve been participating in Alex’s courses for a couple of years now. Every time we’re surprised by the enthusiasm and energy Alex has. His knowledge and the way he teaches this to his students is excellent and inspiring. A recommendation for every professional, no matter how experienced."

Steven Op 't Roodt, HR Manager (Training and Development) Belgium Netherlands - Umicore

"I highly recommend any organisation to utilise the solutions Expression for Growth offer, because of the quality of the programmes that they deliver. All the facilitators are true professionals, who have a thorough knowledge and understanding of the topics they deliver. To top it all Expression for Growth's facilitators are real experts in animating groups and guiding them through a very intense learning process."

Alyson Johnstone, Commercial Best Practice Manager - Pernod Ricard UK

"Expression for Growth have worked with Pernod Ricard UK since 2005, delivering programmes across all areas of our business; Communication, Sales, Coaching and Leadership. They have worked with us to really understand our business and to ensure that we deliver changes in behaviour that stick. Alex and his team consistently deliver first rate training, and Alex himself is an inspirational facilitator. Feedback from delegates consistently rates the training delivered as excellent, and we have many testimonials to demonstrate its positive impact on individual capability and on delivering results."

Martin Merryman, Regional Director North - RBS Global Banking & Markets

"A follow on set of courses for RBS CRS (Commercial Rates and Solutions) to turn the heat up on the previous sales course delivered by Expression For Growth.

"This was the first time that Ben Lewis had delivered a course to RBS. The effectiveness of the course started right from the beginning with preparation just outside Heathrow airport!!

"The attention to detail and the willingness to really understand our requirements and tailor the course appropriately made the difference. Too many courses are bought off the shelf with unwillingness to listen to exactly what the client wants.

"This developed further with the continued review of each seperate course, and the willingness to adapt to the participants and develop the course as we went along. This will always stand out as a main differentiator for me in wanting to continue work with a training provider.

"Ben's eagerness, fresh delivery and humour coupled with the above feedback makes Expression for Growth a company that will always be on my agenda to discuss ongoing sales training with."

Dimitri Peucelle, Managing Director - Dyson France

"I chose Expression for Growth as they are able to train sales teams in a highly beneficial way which most other generic training organisations are not able to provide. Expression for Growth’s approach is just different as it considers the analysis of psychological profiles as an essential part of the training process: being able to identify characters is indeed essential in order to be able to understand and persuade the person in front of you! Each training course is enthusiastic and energetic; people are completely part of it and are not just listeners, and all this, delivered in our native language - French.

"I would stress that passion and trust are the key words of each session, which helps every participant to become the person he/she truly wishes to be. The impact of an Expression for Growth training course is immediate as it changes people genuinely. I can only thank Expression for Growth, for the outstanding contribution it has on the behaviour and professional skills of our sales team."

Jackie McGee, HR Director - Harlequin Mills & Boon.

"Alex's enthusiasm, passion and energy for running his courses and his
knowledge of learning techniques ensures that the delegates come away
feeling invigorated about what they have learnt and are ready to apply back in the workplace."

James Fellowes, Director - Guinness USA

"I can not recommend Expression for Growth highly enough. They have delivered consistently outstanding training to myself and my respective teams over the last 5 years. They not only preaches "understand the needs of your customer" but they really practice it!"

Grant Gillon, Director of Mergers and Acquisitions – International Power

"The presentation skills coaching session with Lisa yesterday was excellent – a fairly short time period but enough time to run through the presentation a couple of times, some very useful tips, and Lisa is an excellent coach."
