At First Point we found the training conducted by Jim to be of a high standard. We retained his services on a ongoing basis and increased the number of courses. Keeping experienced recruiters interested can be a tough job, Jim managed this well and all said they found the courses useful. Whether covering new topics or brushing up on old techniques forgotten. I would happily recommend Enabling Change to other companies.

“SEC Recruitment Limited has been using Enabling change for over three years and have found them to be one of the key reasons for the doubling of our profits.
Their knowledge of sales training but more importantly the recruitment industry is second to none, no matter what the subject they have a clear and effective program that delivers results. We really see them as part of us and not a supplier.”
“Jim Atkins of Enabling Change has been running the external training for SEC Recruitment for the past three years. In that time we have seen unprecedented success and we know that Jim has been one of the key factors. In the three years Jim has not missed one training session and he is now definitely part of the team.”

" Napier Scott continues to use Enabling Change as an integral part of it [recruitment] training system. Jim Atkins (of Enabling Change) is able to command the respect of his listeners by challenging their thought process and, as often as not, adapting it accordingly. In seeking a valid and appropriate [recruitment] training course I sought three main criteria. Firstly credibility, in that the trainer had to be able to control my City staff all of whom come from the City front office inferno and do not suffer fools gladly.
Secondly, that as a search firm handling candidates regularly earning seven figure sums, we required a more refined course of [recruitment] training than the industry standard.
Finally, the course needed to be tailored to our specific business model. Enabling Change met all these criteria successfully and Jim has since become a respected friend of the company and its mentor."
