What Our Clients Say About Us
"Lesley has provided a prompt, efficient, effective and tailored response to our requests. She has adapted her delivery to the culture and needs of our growing business and feedback and response from delegates has been rewarding. Lesley has made a point of following up to ensure value has been added as a result of the training she has personally delivered and has made on the spot changes where necessary for future courses. What I most like about working with Lesley is that there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach and our business has got what we need at the level at which we need it right now."
Sam Mickleburgh, Rok Service Centre Leader
"Lesley is knowledgeable, very experienced and insists on working to a high professional standard - always keeping the needs of her clients at the forefront. She has an engaging style and is not afraid to challenge when appropriate. CAA employees and managers are technically focused, intellectual and have high expectations and Lesley has consistently received very positive feedback from those she has worked with - no mean feat! I have enjoyed working with Lesley and look forward to continued successes with her"
Sati Khakh, Head of Learning & Development CAA
"Our work with you has been extremely valuable. Your initial workshop on telephone skills has been a catalyst in helping us apply, follow up and evaluate learning not only in this area, but in the workplace in general. It is refreshing to work with someone who not only delivers, but is supportive of us following it up on our own afterwards. I look forward to working with you again in the future."
Anne-Marie Goldsmith, HR Manager, Newbury Building Society
"Developing people is an important part of Rok’s future. People are our future and what differentiates us from other organisations. To give of their best, people need to feel valued, motivated, inspired – we are looking to achieve this through an innovative, individually tailored training programme that helps people work towards achieving their full potential. ROK STARS has started our people on this journey and will stay with them as they develop and grow."
Sam Mickleburgh, Service Centre Leader, Rok Exeter
"Lesley was outstanding at our Monthly Meeting. All our ladies were totally switched on to Lesley and her presentation and we all learned so much about how we run and manage both our personal and professional lives. We certainly want Lesley back in 2009. Mary Fraser of Fraser HR also said, “I really enjoyed Lesley's talk –informative, upbeat and entertaining."
Nicky Guy, Chair, Thames Valley Business Women’s Group
"I found LJA really easy to work with and not only did I learn a lot but I passed on some of the advice to other members of the team which they have started using."
Alison Eve, Head of Resources, UK Office of Statistics
"Imperial College London has been fortunate to have been working with LJA for some years. Initially Angela Eden helped the College develop our Harassment Support Contact Scheme, and began rolling out Harassment Training. This became a victim of its own success and Lesley was commissioned in 2005 to continue delivering workshops aimed at academics and senior managers. Lesley’s style is a great strength with it being a sure thing that a room full of delegates will come out staunch champions for good practice after her sessions. Her experience and enthusiasm for training and development is incredibly infectious and she has wonderful ideas for developing and delivering a range of innovative and engaging training sessions. Working with Lesley makes my job easier and professionally motivating."
