Creative Learning Solutions communication leadership problem based learning customer service team building

If you are considering partnering with Creative Learning Solutions, Inc. to assist with your needs, consider what some of our clients have to say:

"It was a complete and total pleasure.... You are good. You're well prepared, you're knowledgeable, you dared to address the real issues that needed to be addressed, and you were very clear about exactly what you were teaching us. You handled the group beautifully. You developed a good rapport with the group. I liked that almost everything, including the games, were a learning tool - everything that we did was for a purpose. I feel that we really got our money's worth. You obviously cared about us and put a lot of thought and attention to our group, rather than treating us as yet another group to do your shtick with. As a direct result of our training, we now have two committees that are actively supporting the work we started there. The team has become closer. For example, one member who had previously kept to herself has developed good relationships with other members of the team. We are handling issues more directly with each other, rather than complaining behind people's backs as we had a tendency to do before the training."

"I was very impressed with [Sheella Mierson's] ability to manage a diverse group, ensuring that every participant had the opportunity to speak their mind. The kinds of questions she asked elicited highly constructive answers. I am most impressed with her ability to adjust to group dynamics as they unfold."

"I wanted to let you know how much our company and all of our employees gained from your training workshops. I do believe that you handled such a diverse group with professionalism and established a great rapport with them. Even having some of them coming in on their days off - not an easy feat around here. The training helped the crews work together as a team while out on the truck. They not only appreciate each other more, but appreciate more how our customers are feeling. I also was impressed with how you took the time to customize the training to situations with which our employees could understand and identify."

"Your workshop was fantastic.... As a result, a lot of our faculty are using more student-centered, active learning in their courses."

"I have found the concepts I learned through your Problem-Based Learning course to be very helpful in managing and coaching my staff. When someone on my staff encounters a problem I like to help them clearly define the problem, identify what they know, what they don't know, and the resources needed to ultimately solve the problem. Those are all skills I learned from Problem-Based Learning. I have found that in the long run productivity and job satisfaction are both positively impacted when people learn to solve problems themselves rather than have a supervisor solve the problems."

"You showed a great ability to cross cultural barriers and actually fit into the group [in the West Indies] as a part of the workshop."

"Sheella Mierson's presentations are always well received. You can count on her to lead a highly interactive seminar. Comments have come back on evaluations stating, 'Why can't the whole week be like that session?'"

"Our diversity group found your training to be among the best we have seen. Specifically, the methods used by you to engage participants moved the workshop beyond didactic to one of the more useful experiential trainings we have experienced. I will come to anything you lead."
