Bradford Supporting People bought in Actualise to begin the process of building up the team to address key issues relating to poor team performance.  They came in at a very early stage where distrust and loyalties were being challenged, and delivered classic team building to include group exercises and to challenge some of the impact of negative working.  The day resulted in a number of outcomes... we are still on a journey of discovery and still have a way to go but I cannot underestimate valuable team building and the positive impact it can have.

Matt  Ramm
Thank you for your assistance with our recent senior level recruitment. We were very happy with the service provided and cannot fault it.  The pricing was competitive and the work was provided within a short turnaround.
 
We liked the style of the tailored reports which were particularly useful (linking to our own competencies). Our interviewers found them extremely valuable, especially the competency based questions which linked to areas of potential development need.
 
We wouldn't hesitate in using Actualise bp again in the future.

Professor Graham Wood
May I take this opportunity to thank you for what has been a very positive experience for me and one which you constructed with great skill and wisdom.  I always found our coaching sessions a joyful experience and one in which I learnt a great deal, probably most in terms of increased self confidence in my skills as a manager.
