I’m not talking about those close to you, I’m… Read more »
I recently read an article that suggested that if you were a child of the 70’s then you are very lucky to be alive. It’s a very funny piece of work and quite thought provoking. I am indeed a child of the 70’s, I played kerby, had a Raleigh Tomahawk (I was to small for… Read more »

Double trouble - Functional
Skills, Operations and Facilitators showed up to the Fuel office today very N’Sync!
What a fantastic day we had with the Graduates at Whittlebury Hall delivering our Influencing programme. Using Cialdini's principles, teams had three hours to influence businesses, charities and even some locals to come back with the best item without exchanging money. Well done to all of the teams who took part! Teams were successful getting a ride in a Tank, a stadium tour, a driving range experience, a hair cut, and a free pizza! A personal favourite was the fire engine success ... uniform included!
We work with the worlds leading edge companies. We have built and continue to build relationships from executive board level and throughout the different levels in diverse industries. We become part of each businesses DNA, as we believe in understanding what truly makes them unique. We know what we are outstanding at. Each and every one of our facilitators is a world class development professional. All of this enables us to gauge where our clients are and enable them to move to where they want to be. We want our clients to succeed and do what it is they do, only better than anyone else.
Fundamentally we believe that our programmes are only successful when participants can apply the learning that has taken place on a programme when they return to work. That is why we use proven, tried and tested formula to ensure they will achieve business and learning objectives. Participants on every programme will Learn, Experience, Apply and Practice the lessons. Every concept is underpinned by a practical tool for application in the real world backed up by materials that reflect our ethos and quality. We aim to inspire all to strive for greater success. We work in true partnership with our clients to engage their key stakeholders to ensure the solutions and interventions are the right ones – building the solution together without the need for presenting a best guess solution!
Someone once said that words are cheap. So instead of reading what we say about ourselves read what our clients say about us. We think you’ll find that what we do returns more than the investment. We practice what we preach. We deliver on our promises. That’s why our clients keep coming back to us. Our words and work is priceless.
Just had to let you know, yet again, what fantastic, motivational courses you run. Your character is infectious Steve & delegates can’t fail to come away without a highly positive attitude. I just love every minute I’m in the room with you. I’ll let you know when I hit my 1st target as I’m sure I would have struggled to rally the enthusiasm without you.
Great energy & infectious enthusiasm. My expectations were far exceeded & very much look forward to the next course!
