Dr Sharp's presentation went extremely well with just the right mix of knowledge, humour & irreverence! I also want to mention that working with Tim has been a treat. Having worked with lots of people I particularly look for those (a) who take the time to listen, "get" us and are able to adjust content accordingly, (b) whose work has integrity and (c) who're easy to work with. Dr Sharp satisfied all of those and I was impressed with the amount of time he was happy to spend with us to get there. I hope to be able to work with him again in the future.

Prof. Sharp teaches powerful strategies that were incredibly relevant to me and the organisation within which I work. Just as importantly, Tim's teaching style combined academic rigour with lots of fun, and he did a tremendous job of facilitating a diverse group with different and challenging agendas.
