Testimonials

I value Bybreen’s expertise and insight into developmental needs. She has shown she can work to a shared set of goals and priorities but also brings her own unique style and expertise in facilitation to ensure these goals are met.

If someone was asked about Bybreen but had not heard about her, I would say that she brings a clarity and expertise to facilitation and support which has shown real results in our programme.

Bybreen has run a range of course for us, these include; Managing for the First Time, Networks, Project Management and a variety of fundraising courses.  The evaluation of her courses have always been positive. The quantitative scores received for her courses range from 83% to 97.7%, satisfaction rating.

Philip Flynn

Learning Manager

London Voluntary Service Council

Bybreen is excellent to work with. She has a very engaging delivery style.  She brings a combination of knowledge and humour to her courses. Furthermore, she inspires the people she trains and ensures they all feel part of the group.  The best reference I can give about Bybreen is that she is an inspirational, personable and funny person.

Barnet Voluntary Service Council

Bybreen helped our management board to understand their strategic and operational responsibilities. Her courses were delivered through an interpreter, yet they were informative, lively and practical.. She created a sense of belonging and responsibility within the board. They now uphold the organisation’s mission and have the strength to live for it!

Bybreen is easy to work with and her ability to put people at ease is an asset. She has a professional manner and is able to communicate effectively with people at different levels. We enjoyed working with her and would recommend her to any organisation that requires her services.

Jasmin Prasad

Our organisations now work more efficiently and pro-actively as a result of using Bybreen’s services. I would highly recommend Bybreen because of her enthusiasm and ability to provide a service that is not only professional, but fully committed to the people she works with.

Gloria Gifford

Membership Officer

Greater London Action on Disability

Bybreen has a way of explaining difficult issues and concepts in a simple way. All of our organisations said that they gained a lot out of their engagement with her and felt empowered to submit funding applications. This resulted in almost 99% success rate. I highly recommend her!

Susan Cueva

Bybreen is definitely a strategic thinker! She has vision and often provides effective solutions to new organisational challenges. Her approach enables organisations to grasp the importance of strategic positioning to maintain market advantage.
