Testimonials

Read what senior people have to say about their learning experiences:

"A raving fan"

"I work with Tom personally and used his services for 20 people in our group (lawyers, portfolio managers, sales people, compliance and operations experts). He was accretive across the board: took time to understand our business (which is complex and niche), clients, realities and issues. He crafted a custom program to ensure we got the best value for time spent together. He worked under pressure and very tight timelines on sensitive information and his contribution was palpable.  I am a raving fan of Tom and his methods and would use him again anytime."

François Rivard, CEO, Innocap

"Our startups were more confident and relaxed on their big day"

"Tom did an excellent job at preparing 10 science startups for their DemoDay during our accelerator program, AdMaCom. His patience, support and the very organised structure of his training paid off - our startups were more confident and relaxed on their big day and their presentations were much clearer."

Antonia Caraveteanu, Managing Director, INAM

"We got funded!"

"We met Tom when we were preparing our pitch for a public funding. Besides providing us super valuable resources, Tom supported us in setting up the storyline of the pitch and making sure our pitch is easy to understand. And it helped: we got funded! If you're looking for someone to help you clearly communicate your story, Tom is your go-to person."

Selcuk Aciner, CEO and founder, Wellspent (acquired)

“I became a fervent believer in the power of storytelling”

"The web development course was exactly what I needed. I went from knowing nothing about coding to building my own websites in just a few months."

Joanie Babin,Senior Advisor, responsible investing
Bank of Canada

“The best of the best”

"Being trained by Tom Hayton on presentation skills and storytelling is like having guitar lessons by Jimi Hendrix or Eric Clapton: you’re trained by the best of the best!  I had some apprehensions before starting our sessions because it was going to be online…  and then, because Tom is so engaging, it didn’t even take 5 minutes at the beginning of the first session to feel like he was with me, in my home office!
 In addition to being an expert teacher, Tom has a lot of humor, which made every minute spent in his trainings a lot of fun!"

Michaël Maltais, Head of HR, Talent & Culture, Innocap

"Very engaging and interactive"

"I’ve participated in one of Tom’s workshops focused on storytelling for technology professionals and I really liked it. It was very engaging and interactive with the perfect mix between theory and practical exercises. It’s been a while since I took the training, but I still go back to Tom’s slides for inspiration whenever I have to prepare a presentation."

Tupac Celery, Program Manager for Carbon Reduction, Siemens

FAQs

Don't worry, I got you. Here are some answers for your questions.

Absolutely not. If you just want to do this workshop, that's fine. If you decide you would like to engage me for more training, that's great, but this will be a self-contained experience and I promise you will walk away with lots of value.

None. This workshop is for everyone who has expertise to share and wants to get better at communicating it to non-experts. Just come along with a pen and paper and a desire to learn.

You don't have to. But you will get more out of it if you do.

There are alternative dates. But I will also send a recording of at least one of the session and post it online afterwards.
