Brad is a skilled and very genuine person. He uses humour throughout his presentation and comes across very humble and approachable. He uses easily understood examples and exercises. The visualization exercise that reduces the impact of a stressful experience is very effective—I’ve used it twice in the last week! Resiliency training is so important in our world today for none of us ever knows when we might need it.
I have hired Brad several times to present to my clients. The feedback is always positive. Brad has an authentic speaking style with a unique perspective on stress management. He gives practical solutions for dealing with the day-to-day stress common in the modern workplace, and also the intense stress when everything goes sideways. His humourous stories help the audience remember key points. Brad’s workshop resonates with managers and front-line supervisors, and I’ll be sure to have him back to present to my clients in the future.
We hired Brad to do a two-day workshop at our annual conference. He has lots of energy and a vast knowledge on the subject of resiliency. There was a lot of fun, joy, laughter and a lot of learning. I’m taking away some tools and techniques that I’ll be able to use in my role in EAP and as a volunteer firefighter. When I’m on the fly in a heavy situation and I feel my stress elevated, I can easily use one of the techniques to quickly bring the level of anxiety down to a level where I’m better able to help people. I saw myself as a fairly resilient person before, but I’m going away from this training more resilient than when I came.
