TESTIMONIALS

Cheryl Jarvis, Organisational Development & Training Manager, East Coast Community Healthcare

“We have been working with CAKE People Development for many years using their Leadership and Management programmes very successfully. CAKE understands our business needs and the skills our people need to be great leaders and managers. Without exception, everyone who has attended one of their programmes has returned to work buzzing with newfound knowledge and itching to share and show those skills. Our values are closely aligned and this makes for a very easy collaborative relationship, I truly believe that CAKE has a passion for what they do and that shows at every opportunity.  Happy to work with them to continue to grow and develop our leaders now and for the future.”

TESTIMONIALS

Sean Kent, Executive Resources Director, Hundred Houses Association

"We have been working with CAKE People Development for 7 years as a learning and development partner. Margaret and CAKE have supported us in several ways, whether it’s designing and facilitating our Conferences for all employees or coaching individual managers. We are committed to growing and developing our employees and in particular, Margaret has been facilitating regular sessions for our leadership team to develop our collective approach to leading the organisation. What we really appreciate about working with CAKE People Development is their ability to respond to our needs as they emerge."

TESTIMONIALS

Laura Broome, Training & Development Manager – Operations, SmartestEnergy

“From the very first conversation about our bespoke training needs, CAKE People Development were open and curious about our business. They took the time to get to know our culture and understand our needs, ensuring that we developed learning programmes aligned with our business strategy and core values. Each programme they put in place for us considered the needs of individuals, their learning styles and their availability. Those who have taken part have provided great feedback about the sessions and the impact they’ve had on their personal and professional development.”
