"You not only motivated and inspired our Business  Advisers, you gave them the confidence and energy to perform successfully at  the sharp end of what is a new venture for Vodafone. Since then, we have  experienced the best business sales week in retail so far this year." Rhian  Rees, Head of Learning & Development (Retail), Vodafone

"The training course that Seán Brickell did for the Clifford Chance global  PR group was superb. The training more than met its objectives, it really  put us through our paces and, as well as learning a lot, we had great fun  doing it. The team couldn't wait to tell me how good Seán was – and the  formal evaluation backed this up too. He was extremely well prepared and  used enormous energy in running the session. Our thanks for a really  outstanding training event." Anne Groves, Global Head of Public Relations, Clifford Chance

"You would be my first choice for any event we hold in the future which  requires a guest speaker." Rachel Harris, Manager, New Business, Bank of  Scotland

"Seán's role as compère was to hold together a very challenging conference  consisting of four different TV style shows in one day. Each was designed to  communicate particular company messages in very different styles. He  fulfilled his roles very well as a serious interviewer, a chat show and  conference host and as a comedian – all without any autocue. Particularly  impressive was his ability to step up and ad lib for more than 20 minutes at  the drop of a hat when the need arose! Seán was critical in maintaining  audience attention throughout the day and ensured that the delegates were  thoroughly entertained when appropriate. He was a pleasure to work with and  contributed towards one of our most memorable and productive conferences."  Marcus Williamson, Deloitte

"Seán worked with us to improve our interpersonal and business presentation  communication skills on both an individual and a team level. We noticed a  rapid and sustainable improvement in both areas which has proved to be of  great value to the business. He was a pleasure to work with, being  insightful, motivating and entertaining." Veronica Kher, Manager,  Information Management, Petro-Canada Ltd

"Seán worked with me as my executive coach for 8 months helping me to rise  to the challenges of a new job and supporting me in the development of my  leadership team. Seán was infectiously enthusiastic but also wasn't afraid  to challenge and push me to ask questions about myself that I may not have  wanted to ask. Seán encouraged me to explore different approaches to  problems and in doing so ensuring I had considered all options available to  me. Seán is a great motivator and support and understands the psychology of  people which I found invaluable." Tom Hings, Director of Brand Marketing, Royal Mail

"Thanks to you, both easyJet and I have benefited because of the way I and  the company came across. You definitely gave me the confidence and belief in  myself to deal with presenting to a large professional audience in a manner  that was dynamic and brought to life a subject which is normally considered  dreary. The audience even clapped at your colourfully clever introduction  which helped to win their hearts right from the start." Pritesh Dattani,  Head of Internal Audit, easyJet

"Seán, as my executive coach, and I quickly developed a strong rapport and  his warm and challenging approach gave me even greater focus with workable  actions. This has provided me with models and strategies to tackle and  achieve both personal and business challenges. He quickly grasps your  situation and how best to use it to achieve results." Seb Goldin, Managing  Director, Institute of Advanced Motorists

"Seán works hard to understand what the client needs rather than wants. His professionalism and attention to detail are in line with what you would expect from someone who can work at both ends of the spectrum. Seán is comfortable in any environment and displays a number of skills from 1-1 coaching, group facilitation and comparing large groups." Ray Mulvey, Talent & Learning Manager, Royal Mail

"We had a major corporate values launch where it was vital that everyone  engaged in the process and also enjoyed themselves. Seán helped us  communicate our values to the staff and for them to communicate effectively  with us. The way he interacted with the audience and the management panel  was as productive as it was highly witty and that made the whole thing come  to life. People are still talking about it!' Sandra Huelsmann,  Communications & Marketing Manager, HSH Nordbank

"Seán was a fantastic investment for our pioneering conference in South  Africa…as he gave so much of himself for the benefit of the delegates and  the event organisers in and out of the conference hall. He was a great  presenter who helped us achieve our aims with a wonderful mix of  understanding, encouragement and great wit. He has the unique ability to  engage with people of all cultures and meet them at their level whether in a  group or a one-to-one setting." Edward Okundi, CEO, Leadership Shines Through

"100% professional. Seán adds impact and that magic touch to any event." Sue  Wilkinson, Head of Life and Health Propositions, Abbey (National)

"It was a pleasure having you here in Dubai. You showed us by example of how  it should and could be done. I look forward to coming on more of your  workshops." Mohammad Ahmad Bazargan, Senior Relationship Officer, National  Bank of Abu Dhabi

"I really can't recommend Seán enough. We have worked together for the past  3 years on a multitude of different events and the feedback is consistently  excellent. He has a unique ability to add life to any conference or  corporate event. His professional yet engaging personality means that  attendees feel relaxed yet involved with every aspect of the conference  creating a more upbeat atmosphere. Whether it's interviewing speakers to  ensure their introductions are interesting or facilitating Q&A, Seán is the  man for the job." Jason L Hulme, Events & Research Director, Informa Professional

"His seminar was highly original and practical and got people thinking and  acting in new and productive ways which they are now using in their work. He  also made it very humorous and, as a result, made it one of the most  enjoyable and memorable seminars we have ever had." Sarah Ion, Events Team,  Chartered Institute of Public Relations

"It's not surprising that, after your speech, people were queuing up to talk  to you and to ask how to book your training workshops." Anne Morris,  Worcester Business Breakfast Club

"Seán's media training techniques are excellent as was the feedback from our  staff. I have huge confidence when working with Seán in this area of  expertise which adds great value to our company's investment in employee  development." Stephen Swain, Communications Manager, South West Water

"If I could speak to an audience at 10% of your level I would be delighted!  I picked up on a few things you said last Thursday and revamped my press  release and sent it to them again. I have just gotten off the phone having  had a long chat with the business editor and the photographer is coming on  Monday! This is as a direct result of me paying attention to you last week."  John Bates, Travel Counsellors

"Your media profiling encapsulated everything about me, both personally and  professionally, in a compellingly colourful way. It certainly therefore got  the media coverage I needed to help me grow my business because it was so  professionally done - in fact, so much so, that whole chunks of it were  copied word for word by the journalist in a top magazine which is read by my  main target audience! Thank you." Shamus Ogilvy, The Ogilvy Smokery

"With your press releases and handling of the media, you effectively  countered the effects of widespread and inappropriate negative publicity on  my reputation during a legal appeal against a criminal conviction. I was  impressed with the speed of your actions. Your understanding of your  business is thorough. Your writing ability is especially good, being able to  get the message across in a concise, easy and persuasive style. This,  coupled with your shrewd awareness of visual impact, meant that news  articles were accompanied with appropriate pictures to endorse the message.  Thank you." Wing Commander Mohammed Ashraf, RAF
