I had the pleasure of utilizing Neil's services both as a speaker for my client events and my CEO network and as a consultant/trainer for my senior management team. As a speaker he provided thought provoking, relevant topics that kept the audience informed as well as entertained. He was an excellent ambassador for our organization and the feedback was extremely positive. I also had engaged Neil as a consultant and trainer for my new management team. My team and I enjoyed working with him and his training created a much more cohesive team. I will utilize his services again.

Having worked with other MBTI Practitioners, after five years I was still unsure about my best fit type, so I contacted Neil. I received my Step II report within half an hour, and it was everything I could have asked for. Furthermore, where I have found others difficult to get in touch with, Neil responded to all my emails within a few hours, even despite a six hour time difference, and we were able to set up a video conference in less than 48hrs. The video conference itself was very insightful, and Neil was very affirming and easy to talk to. After an hour of talking with Neil, I feel sure of my personality type, and more able to look at techniques for enhancing communication and efficiency. I would recommend Neil to anybody who is serious about embarking on an MBTI journey, no matter which stage they are at.
