Brian and Ian facilitated group and individual sessions for our company. As a new team and changing organisation, coming together and developing a shared language to discuss way of working was extremely beneficial. The training has led us to together and individually develop our strengths and working relationships. Other than that Brian and Ian are just the nicest guys and I really feel like we are a part of each other's story now. Would 100% recommend for improving your working relationships and self-understanding.

As someone currently looking for my next opportunity, I worked with Brian on my strategy to get the job I’m looking for and left feeling energized and reassured. Apart from being a great colleague, he’s also a great person who seeks to understand & connect with you before giving advice. Thanks again Brian!

I have been working with Brian for over a year now and there isn't much to say other than a stellar coach. I have spent many years dealing with horrible guidance counselors and not knowing where to find unbiased and helpful advise, and from our first session, I knew that I would be a regular one of his clients. Since our first meeting, Brian has helped me discern how to maximize the results of self-discovery from a gap year, balancing various subjects of interest, and which career path is right for me. Instead of going into a meeting and hearing the classic "so what is it you want to do with your life?", Brian has his unique method of navigating the conversation to ensure you get what you're looking for out of his meetings. Nothing but praise from me as our meetings has resulted in me starting the ball rolling on some of my lifelong goals, some of which are already achieved. if you're reading this review....BOOK IT!

I worked with Brian over a few sessions. I found him to be enthusiastic and engaging, asking leading questions that in many ways, were so simple. The questions called on me to draw attention to the stories I've been telling myself and speak them out loud, which brought them into the conscious mind. I was amazed at how seemingly such simple questions led to me such deep thoughts, realisations and understandings.

I worked with Brian of Essential Trainig with one on one coaching and found his practices very effective. Brian has a great temperament and works to fully understand his clients before moving into coaching methods where he uses questioning to help you to reflect on issues. I found this really helpful as he creates an environment for an individual to gather an understanding of their thoughts and experiences, and broaden the horizons by challenging perspectives through questioning to find answers within.

I would highly reccomend Brian and Essential Training for personal or corporate coaching.

I've worked with Ian over a period of time in a one-to-one and group setting as a client and I can't quite put into words the profound impact that time has had on my professional and personal life. I highly reccomend anyone thinking of exploring this as an avenue to pursue it. The improvements and benefits I experienced weren't babysteps but entire lightyear leaps.
