The Power of Yes

Graham Neil Speaking Testimonials

Our experience working with Donovan and Graham was exceptionally positive. The ‘Power of Yes’ concept is very fitting for a corporate audience and the messages are universal to almost any work environment. Plus, the team’s quality/professionalism was just what we needed to not only win over our Executive Team but also the members of the audience.

Epcor

In these past 2 months since the workshop, we are already seeing changes in the way our team communicates internally and externally. I would recommend this workshop for all teams, big or small!

ConocoPhillips

I laughed until my stomach hurt! Along with the laughter came excellent tips on how to be positive, work as a team and how to say “Yes”!

MacEwan College

The whole group had a lot of fun with Donovan and Graham, and we are still using the principles they taught us. It was really informative and a lot of fun. What more can you ask for in a workshop?!

ATB Financial

Getting administrators and teacher leaders to say yes and look at their roles from a positive direction has been most helpful in moving our teachers forward in this time of change in education. Graham Neil and Donovan Workun have never disappointed in their preparation and professionalism.
