Reviews
Professional Business Communication training
This class is 3 hours but it didn’t feel like it. It helped that the class is interactive and each person gets a chance to speak at one time or another. Martin did a great job keeping us engaged. I like the way he explained the topics and I genuinenly walked away with some great pointers regarding communication styles.
Martin was a great trainer!
He made the session interesting and engaging, and gave some really helpful tips for working effectively! Definitely one of the best trainers I’ve come across in sessions like this – would recommend.
"Working Effectively" module with Martin Chapman
Martin is a really friendly instructor whose enthusiasm came through even in a virtual training session. He aimed to create rapport among the attendees which I really appreciated. It was great meeting him!
