A HUGE thank you to Mark Stanley from Turning Point in Manchester who has supported my endeavours for the past few years. I recently ventured to Salford to meet his new troops and deliver my bespoke Motivational Interviewing course. My fantastic actress Heather Broadcast is still knocking it out of the park as ‘Sandra’ in my ever-popular training films. It’s one extreme to another with Sandra, and just how do we use MI to support and encourage positive change when working with people like Sandra, people with bipolar affective disorder...?
I was SUPER impressed with the calibre of the worker, and we all had a brilliant time! Even if I do say so myself, well in fact, why not read a smattering of what the LEARNERS had to say about my training:
“This course exceeded my expectations; the delivery of the training material was first class. This was the most engaging, well-structured and informative training I have ever been on. I have had MI training before, but it was nowhere near as good as this! 😊”
“What can I say, ten out of ten in all areas! Thought provoking and very, VERY interactive.”
“I absolutely loved that there were so many opportunities to learn the skills. This helped me consolidate the learning. Thank you very much Steven.”
“Steven was absolutely fantastic. He delivered the training in an animated and informative way! He kept the learning environment fun. A Wonderful training course and an absolute pleasure to meet the man himself! Thank you 😊”
“I would love to receive more training from Steven. This was a highly informative and interactive course.”
“Thank you for this really good training. Your delivery and style just made the time fly! I never checked my phone once. The depth of your knowledge was obvious and evident without ever being arrogant. I am looking forward to more training with you.”
“Thank you for your VIBE! You have encouraged me beyond words, and I am very happy that I attended your training.”
“Very enjoyable, the content was great, the best thing was the atmosphere created by Steven, this led to great discussions. A great mix of activities and videos, not too many group tasks, no one felt uncomfortable, I’m looking forward to the next session with Steven.”
