Mind Fit Testimonials

The Mind Fit programme is accredited and endorsed by the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM)  – here are a few comments from employees and employers.

 I have assessed numerous programmes and processes over the years in all different types of organisations. I have seen mixed results. I was not prepared for what happened over three months within shop floor production staff. The result was staggering in all areas. Not only did production improve to an amazing level but the method of working and the initiatives taken were driven by everyone on the production line. This resulted in a team of people cooperating and collaborating together for the benefit of them and the company. They became totally engaged.ILM Endorsed.

This was a team that was totally dysfunctional and nobody knew what to do. Various professionals and specialists had been involved and people had been sent on a variety of training courses. None of this made any noticeable difference. There were those in the team who deliberately set out to hi-jack the Mind Fit programme, but they too, converted themselves very early in the process. You had to see it to believe it, and I would not hesitate to recommend the Mind Fit programme to anyone.

National Distribution Group, Operations Director : “Working with the team from Mind Fit has added a new dimension to our business…we managed to ensure that through our structural change we’ve been able to put round pegs in round holes and promote people from within. This means that today we have a vibrant, self-aware management team and a powerful belief throughout the organisation that individuals can progress. This will hold our business in good stead for many years ahead”

Lecturer at Greenwich University: “Mind Fit delivered a workshop for Employability Skills using their approach to my undergraduates at Greenwich University. It really encouraged them to take personal responsibility for their own career development and to work on developing a truly ‘can do’ attitude. The personal growth of all students in such a short time frame was amazing! I can see great value if this was run as a 1st year course as my students are clearly more engaged in their studies and starting early would allow us to build on effective foundations and raise attainment.”
