“As a Queen’s Award-winning family business, we were confident that we were executing our business framework but most importantly that our colleagues were happy and proud to work at The Pitchmark Group. Our initial objective was to maintain this success whilst finding marginal gains across The Group, which is why I reached out to Nadeem at SMART Way Forward. Our immediate priority was to upskill existing members of the team to ensure we were continuing to maximise opportunity and operate at optimum levels of efficiency. The training and ongoing support we receive has been fantastic; Nadeem really is an extension to our ‘family’ and his passion, enthusiasm and belief in our vision definitely underpins our performance.”

“Thank you so much for running the leadership management training course last week. What can I say, it was just brilliant! I learnt so much about myself and the staff I work with. I was amazed at how Nadeem had discreetly arranged problem solving tasks/obstacles on his arrival without me even knowing, just so he could assess my approach, reactions and emotions ahead of delivering the course – incredible! Nadeem really sets the standard for how to deliver an excellent bespoke leadership training programme based on individual training needs.”
