Training and Development Manager
Orange UK

"New Tricks have worked with Orange in developing a training academy which provides our staff with clear succession guidelines and career progression into management roles."
"Kevin and Alison have been instrumental in ensuring the programme works alongside performance management and day to day development activity, but also assist staff who want to further their career in a management role and ultimately help Orange identify talent."
"From diagnostic through to design and implementation their understanding and interpretation of the Orange vision has been second to none."

"Kevin was recommended to me by a colleague in the NHS as a man who 'knew what he was talking about' and someone who I could trust to help me achieve my vision for a leadership development programme that met the needs of my organisation. Kevin was able to give clarity to my ideas and deliver a programme that was challenging, interesting and needs-led."
"In addition to designing an excellent training programme Kevin brought a wealth of experience and knowledge which was an additional benefit to the participants."
"Kevin has a natural facilitative style, he handled challenges within the group expertly and confidently."
"I met with several consultants before I met with Kevin and none had his honesty, enthusiasm or creativity."

Karen Kirk
Training Manager
Arriva London

"Arriva London have recently been working with New Tricks on a number of projects aimed at strengthening management performance at all levels of the business."
"In particular, we have worked together to develop a competency based assessment programme aimed at identifying talent within the management population. Kevin and his team worked hard to understand our business environment. Because of this, they were able to tailor exercises to broadly suit the experiences of managers across all of the functions within the company. Forty-five of our managers attended the two day assessment centre. Feedback was wholly positive in terms of the learning that was gained from the actual assessment process. As a business, we also successfully identified managers with talent to move onto a development programme."
"Over one hundred of our managers attended a three day management skills training programme. The programme was written and delivered by New Tricks. Of those who completed feedback forms, 90% were satisfied that the content would benefit them back in their workplace."
"As a business, our performance is currently strong and, without doubt, part of our success is due to the development that we have undertaken with New Tricks."

"I invited Kevin to take on an evaluation project within Arriva London in January 2003. Looking back that was the start of a relationship with our business that has evolved and matured. The training and development work he has delivered and facilitated covers the whole management spectrum from improving strategic awareness at senior level to modular training for new managers. The most fitting testimony I can give is that with his style and ability to understand people and the culture of our business we regard him as 'one of us'!"

"Kevin Meaney is an outstanding trainer. His understanding of our needs was first class and meant that the training outline has met our requirements. He has advised us on how to ensure the training is effective for the future and we are now watching and waiting to see how this improves and drives our business forward."

"I felt it appropriate to write to thank you for the professional way in which you delivered in-depth management training to our managers."
"All attendees have reported that they have greatly benefitted from this training and they all agreed that the training had been delivered in a most professional and easy to understand manner. From the evalution results it is evident that the training content was at a level which would enable them to implement the information which they received within their individual departments."
"As a lot of our managers are quite young and some are relatively new to management, I feel that this training session would certainly benefit both our business and indeed our managers."
