“The speech scripting and delivery training Chris gave to our President and CEO Mark Elbourne boosted his confidence, improved his pre-delivery planning and research. He now has a powerful impact on analysts whom he regularly deals with and in the media. He also now has a more relaxed way of reaching out to employees that helps him to champion both the sales and internal communications programme that Chris spearheaded.”
