Client Feedback
Feedback from Leading Consultant of Hay Group following a series of workshops for Vodafone in the UK and Australia and New Zealand
"The first thing to say is that they (Vodafone) are truly delighted with what Hay Group and Actors in Industry have delivered. The feedback from participants, both formal and informal has been universally good. People at Vodafone are using what they have learned, and they talk to each other about the styles they are using and the impact they have. In particular, the practical sessions with actors were rated as excellent."
Quote from trainer on a programme for Lex
"Jo and Dan were outstanding - unbelieveable according to those on the receiving end!"
Quote from HR Manager at Hutchison Whampoa
"I just wanted to let you know that Monday was a huge success for us. Paul was not only excellent in acting out his roles but his feedback was extremely valuable. He had not only done his homework and researched his roles and our organisation but showed an active interest in our industry and what our company was trying to achieve. We will definitely use Actors in Industry again for not only interviewing purposes but some training on negotiation and conflict resolution."
Quote from Head of People Development at Lovells LLP following a Partner Assessment Centre (we do these every year)
"Lorraine, many thanks for putting together such a strong team for yesterday's event. The partners remarked at the moderation today how well they felt the role players were working and they were keen to hear their feedback on individual candidates and exercises. It really helps to clarify their own observations and adds a lot to the moderation exercise so thanks to all for taking the time to give Charles and me their thoughts. I think it worked well having the feedback forms too, and it will be a great help when I come to giving the candidates their feedback. Please pass on my thanks to all."
Quote from trainer on a workshop for Roche
"Just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to Christie and Jack for a great day at Roche. They really challenged the guys but in a very constructive and supportive manner and we had good fun too!"
Quote from Stephenson Harwood
"I wanted to get in touch with you following the assistance Cat and Ian gave on our training sessions on the 15th and 20th of March. As this was my first contact with 'Actors in Industry', I wanted to get in touch to give you some feedback. I found the input that Cat and Ian gave very valuable and the feedback from the partners has been extremely positive. They did not complain that the roleplay was unrealistic which, for me, means a quality job."
Feedback from our team leader given by two trainers following a PWC SIGNATURE workshop
"I checked in with Maria and Lorenza after the afternoon w/shps and they were keen to tell us that the feedback from the Partners for all of us had been FANTASTIC! So, I thought you would like to know."
Feedback from Allen and Overy LLP
"Just a quick note to say that Ed and Amanda did a great job at our assessment event - they were convincing in their roles and the feedback they gave on each candidate was useful input to the overall discussion. The partners thought the role plays were very well done and added an important dimension to the process. We enjoyed working with them! I also followed up internally to check that Actors in Industry are known to our Learning & Development team here and understand you do work on one of our current training programmes."

Quote from facilitator at a Management Development Centre held for Linklaters LLP
