Testimonials

Shell

"Desire Dedication Determination". Dat is wat Charles heeft overgebracht bij de start van onze managementteam meeting Manufacturing om te komen tot Performance Excellence. Maar ook de uitleg over het verschil tussen Targets en Expectations bleek zeer bruikbaar tijdens het vervolg van onze tweedaagse. Dat je geen vrienden hoeft te zijn om een winning team te vormen is voor velen een eyeopener gebleken. Zijn "no compromise" benadering van Accountability zal nog lang doorklinken in de prestatiegerichte organisatie die Shell wil zijn."

Cap Gemini

"Charles stimulated great debate about how business could harness his attributes for high performance cultures and he was generous with his time to support our delegates think this through. An inspirational speaker, combining an aura of excellence with down-to-earth pragmatism that enthralled our senior leaders". - Cap Gemini

McKinsey
"The parallels you drew between your experience in elite sports and the challenges we in our work face every day were spot on. The response from our audience was overwhelmingly positive"

Qatar Shell
"We particularly appreciated the care and attention Charles put to weaving in Qatar Shell"s vision & mission, and key values & goals into his presentation to make it more relatable to our business challenges and objectives."
