Written Feedback

Overall impression of the Work it Out!programme?
  • Excellent!
  • Really refreshing way of looking at work and life. Simple but powerful because it puts you back in control of your life.
  • It blew me away how the collaborative nature of the group melted preconceptions about how you find and create work. Competitive lines disappeared and people really rowed in and I enjoyed helping them too. I would like to see this available to lots of others as it would enable so many people to get moving on things in this way and build self efficacy.
  • Fast paced. Inspiring – lots to work on! Great peer to peer support.
  • Excellent course. I would love to see this course in other places as it enables people to change their lives.
  • I find it very professional. It provides a very clear concise pathway for anyone interested in building their career or earning money.
  • I found it very helpful to move my business idea forward.
  • Very positive. A boost hearing other peoples' enthusiasm.
  • It was a very well laid out professional process.
  • it is very motivational!
  • It's a great programme to get you focused and help grow your ideas.
  • The network is amazing.
  • A clear functional yet practical approach on how to create and develop your idea regardless of its size.
  • Excellent programme. Confirmed that it's okay to work the way I do!
  • Great for thinking outside of the box. Very enjoyable. Gets you thinking more creatively and working with the team gives you a chance to hear other peoples ideas and in turn generates more ideas for your own skills and learning different ways to make money.
  • Very inspiring! Very well organised. Incredibly well presented - forward thinking.
  • This is an exciting and positive program for those needing encouragement, commitment, motivation, support, staying power and practical skills.
  • ​Brilliant programme!​ 
What would you say to others who are thinking about attending this programme?
  • Unique opportunity – grab it!
  • Will speed you on your journey for development.
  • Opens your eyes and mind to so many possibilities.
  • Just give it a go – try it for the six sessions. They might be the most significant hours of your life.
  • Definitely go for it!
  • This is an exciting and positive programme for those needing encouragement, confidence, motivation, support, staying power and practical skills to get things moving.
  • Brilliant programme!

 How has the programme helped you?
  • Reignited my 'I can do this' muscle. Have loved the advice given and taken by others.
  • The practical advice is so essential – DSED
  • Building and being part of a real network.
  • Meeting new people. Making plans every week and working on them every day
  • ​Generating ideas and seeing different perspectives. DSED – works! Permission to just give it a go and see what happens!
  • Brilliant motivation – I'm a new person.
  • It shows me how many people have skills and long to start some small business or project or new way of life.
  • I got clear and focused about what I wanted to do.
  • I have had so many ideas given to me from members of the group which opened my eyes. It is so much easier to move forward on my ideas.
  • Everyone here in the group has equally something different and positive to give to each other whether it is a good idea or a different way of doing something - that may just be a little bit easier than the way are doing things at the moment.
