“I have attended many workshops of this kind over the past years, but this was by far the best one, mainly because of all the easy-to-follow daily-life advices. I also liked that we covered so many different aspects, that are or will become essential for our future career planning.”

“Thank you very much for your excellent talk in Münster. I gained some new insights which will be very useful in everyday business situations.”

“Thank you very much for the notes. I am also thankful for the new perspective I got on the workshop, it certainly helps with the handling of some people!”

“Thanks for a wonderful and informative workshop! Truly!”

First of all, Rob has a great sense of humor and a very special, but probably unforgettable way of leading us through this workshop, that made us understand a lot of things. The discussions during the workshop were very open and deep and I felt free to ask a lot of questions or make comments. Besides this I really enjoyed the open workshop structure, that gave us time to talk and learn about the topics that interested us the most. I felt very valued and heard during the whole time, which motivated me even more. Finally I think I learned some really valuable life lessons in this workshop and I really thank Rob for this opportunity.”

“First ever workshop after which I implemented the ideas and noticed some change.”

The skills we discussed and developed there will definitively be of great help for me in the future not only for my career path but also in my everyday life. Rob knows how to make the atmosphere pleasant for everyone to feel comfortable, speak and exchange ideas. Thanks a lot!”

“We appreciate the reliable and engaging cooperation with Rob. He is a very professional and experienced trainer. His workshops regularly receive very good reviews by participants. Our doctoral candidates and postdocs cherish especially the open structure and the fact that they decide on the topics dealt with in the workshops.”

“Thank you very much for the course, it filled me up with a lot of positive energy.”

“Thank you again for the seminar. I liked the day. And I was already able to make use of some of the things we talked about.”

“Your lessons are coming in handy right now. Thank you for that amazing course you conducted here in Jena.”

“I wanted to thank you again for the course and the extra-material you sent us afterwards. I especially liked your style of moderation – instead of suggesting a fixed schedule you supported the positive dynamics in the group and helped us to reflect and reinvent ourselves. Thank you!”

“Amazingly the workshop was tailored specifically to the needs of the participants, no other workshop I attended managed to have such an immediate impact on my work and career.”

“My first intention was to attend the workshop for 1 hour, as I was not actively looking for a new job. However, at the end of the workshop, I did not want to leave, as there is so much more to learn from Rob about ways to excel at work and beyond. Thank you!”

“The workshop was indeed remarkable.”

“What a fantastic workshop! I learned a lot about networking and people overall. This is a workshop that would be of use to anyone no matter what profession since much of the exiting stuff is universal. Thank you Rob for opening my eyes on so many points!”

“The course was the one with the most “Aha!” experiences I ever had. Many possibilities for self-reflection. Rob was a great and inspiring teacher.”

“I have known Rob for many years. I have always been impressed by his insight into people. He often has a different and original slant on situations and an understanding of why people are behaving the way they are. He is very approachable and gets involved, but at the same time is able to analyse situations as though from the outside.
This allows Rob very often to provide a new and simplifying view on things that explains the real underlying causes. This enables people and businesses to understand difficulties, and to adopt a new approach to them and overcome them.”

“Thanks for the great workshop! It really made me see things from a different angle even though it is common sense. The atmosphere was amazing!”

“I would like you to know that your workshop had a huge impact on me and I will be forever grateful for that!”

“Attending Rob’s workshop changed me from being very nervous about networking and job hunting to actually looking forward to it. Rob managed to give this tailored workshop in a very pleasant atmosphere.”

“The teamleading workshop given by Rob Thompson was one of the best workshops I ever attended. Due to its interactivity and the topics chosen directly by the participants time was flying. I really learned a lot and will probably also make use of this knowledge in my daily life. I am looking forward to the next workshop. Thank you!”

“Over the last few days I went several times through my notes. Even if I repeat myself, your workshop was really an eye opener and changed the way I see leadership, job hunting and the importance of self-responsibility. Regarding this, your handout provides a great support, and also facilitate to deepen the content. Thank you very much!”

“It was my first workshop with Rob and the experience was just amazing. Very interactive and dynamic. All the problems presented were attacked from different angles and the solutions were not just presented, he lead us to them through brainstorming and logic. I will definitely attend more workshops from him.”

“The workshop with Rob is a great opportunity to discuss all issues and situations in academic management you were ever interested. The form of the course is very interactive and gives a great opportunity for everybody to be actively involved. Furthermore, I have to admit, that Rob is very big expert in communication and management, he is very charismatic and has a great sense of humor, it was such a pleasure to take part in his workshop.”

“What impressed me most was Rob’s self-confidence model and how you can overcome low self-confidence. I feel like this is a skill not only useful in job hunting, but also in daily life. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.”

“If there is any workshop I would love to attend over and over again or recommend it to anyone, then it must be Rob’s. Thank you so much for the wonderful seminar that left me positively energized and ready for any leadership role.”

“Finally, a program that does not TELL you to be more confident or come with a RECIPE book (neither ever worked anyway), BUT someone who makes you REALIZE confidence and strengths and simply WANT to go after them and enforce them in your everyday behaviour.”

“An authentic and inspiring workshop! Our PhD students profited not only from Rob’s great experience as a trainer but also from his knowledge of the scientific working environment.
In the work with the participants, he effectively “en passant” demonstrated how humour and a high level of commitment can create a positive and motivating working atmosphere: a true lesson in leadership skills! Plus, truly a workshop highlight for our doctoral students.”

“I really enjoyed your workshop and your workshop style. There was and still is a lot of stuff to think about and to digest and the workshop definitely made me much more aware of certain points.”

“I’ve attended the 2 days workshop given by Rob and it was a real positive surprise because of the approach Rob is using to present.
It’s not like a lecture where the speaker is coming and tells you how things are but a more a reflection about different topics, with concrete examples. Rob is also really flexible in the themes approached during the workshop and everybody could add a particular or specific point more related to his own wish. The atmosphere was really relaxed during these 2 days and everybody could speak freely about his own experience. I would strongly recommend people to go to Rob’s workshops which are really tailored for your specific needs and wishes with a really not-traditional point of view.”

“Thank you again for your wonderful and inspiring course.”

“The atmosphere in this workshop was one of the best I ever had: Rob was very helpful and flexible in terms of topics, participants could discuss freely about their thoughts and opinions. It was relaxed and open but never boring. Thanks for a very good workshop, the content is useful for everyone!”

“Thanks for your very entertaining and insightful workshop.”

“One of the best workshops ever!”

“If you look back at your life and try to identify the moments that influenced your career, your workshop would be one of them.”

“The fact that Rob allows participants to choose their own topics allows him to tackle every issue so that everyone is satisfied.”

“I finally found somebody who could analytically describe many (if not all) of the negative and positive behaviours I see around me almost every day. And I didn’t expect to hear anything like that during the workshop, so I was really positively surprised.”

“If I have to describe the workshop in one word, I would say it was fantastic. Great atmosphere, friendly brainstorming about topics that matter not only in your work but also in private life. One of the best workshops I attended so far.”

“I want to thank you Rob, because every single advice you gave during your workshop was important, especially those about the things that are between the lines.”

“I would strongly recommend people to go to Rob’s workshops which are really tailored for your specific needs and wishes with a really non-traditional point of view.”

“Rob’s workshop provided me with an effective intelligible framework to disentangle my apprehension of tricky professional interactions. If only I had been told all this much earlier! I’m sure I would have spared myself months of listening unavailingly to the wrong persons and trying to follow the wrong advice. I feel better armed now.”

“I have never seen a more engaging and passionate life coach. I am glad I attended. The content was very transformative.”

“Thanks again for the best ever workshop we had this week. I’m already implementing the ideas we discussed and have a positive outcome.”
