WHY CHOOSE US?


If we teach it, we’ve done it

Our trainers practice what they preach. When they teach you how to negotiate, it’s because they’ve been negotiators. When they show you how to present better, it’s because they’re great presenters. We’ve solved our share of tricky problems, so whatever situation you’re worried about, we can help. From standing up in front of the CEO to handling that million-dollar deal.

We are born-chameleons

We adapt our training style to best help the people in the room. From teasing a quiet group of data-driven, training-cynics out of their shell, to injecting more authenticity into an over-confident sales team. And because of our backgrounds in the creative industries, we’ve talked to a lot of different types of people. Introvert? Extrovert? Left-brain? Right-brain? Not-got-a-clue brain? We can work with you.

Finding your fix is our specialty

One size doesn’t fit all. So we look at each person in our sessions individually. What do they need for a boost of confidence? How can we help them command the room? What key will unlock their hidden powers of negotiation? We find the fix, the angle, the technique that works for you. One of our clients calls it our ‘magic dust’.

Less talk. More practice. Bigger breakthroughs

In our training sessions we get you up and doing stuff. It’s not just theory to send you back to your desks with. We work in short, sharp bursts and then get you discussing what you’ve learned. You’ll try the techniques out on each other, in situations that directly relate to your day-to-day world. So you get a more engaging session and the techniques are more likely to stick.

Shaking things up since 2006

For some people the idea of a training course leaves them yawing because they’ve only experienced the droning boredom of unengaging training. At Make Yourself we’ve built our strong reputation on creative training techniques. We approach subjects from new angles, we challenge and push our participants, and we’re always making our sessions better.

Tell us what you need. We’ll do the rest

We know our stuff inside out. So talk us through what you’re hoping to gain, and we’ll pull together the right modules for your team. We know what works together and what doesn’t, and we know how to get the best from a session. So let’s talk.

Helping people fulfil their potential since 2006

If you are looking to help your people develop their skills in leadership and management, presence and presentation, negotiation and influencing, then we are here to help. Whether you’re a fledgling start-up, a FTSE or a Fortune 500, we help people fulfil their potential.

We know that learning lands best when training is interactive, so interactivity is at the heart of all our learning modules, whether virtual or in-person. We also understand that you might have specific objectives, so we work with you to adapt our sessions to meet those objectives. 

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I'd like to thank you for being such good partners and making our leadership programme come to life. You delivered a high-end learning experience and your combination of professionalism, knowledge and wittiness is remarkable.

— content platform company

I have had fantastic feedback from yesterday. Thank you so much…You have ‘blown out of the water’ a previous development company we used.

— tech sales company

In all other courses I have been on there's much more theory than practice, but here we were able to try out everything we learned in a very comfortable environment (I was slightly nervous about the amount of live 'presenting' required before I arrived!), and most of all it reminded me that presenting can be fun. Also, the tips we learned apply to so much more than presentations - it's made me look at my approach to meetings and general office interactions. Thank you - I've never enjoyed a course so much and taken as much from it.
