Testimonials
Sue Anderson’s Unshakeable Leaders Program gave me some great tools to develop my leadership abilities. The course content was engaging and relevant, and I really appreciated Sue’s after-course contact to check in and ensure that all my development needs were met.
This is the second workshop I have done with Sue. They are a wealth of knowledge and I only wish we had more time to dive into more topics.
The Feedback Fitness Live course was right on the money. The content was new, fresh and thought-provoking. Sue’s delivery style was engaging, fast moving and easy to follow. Thanks, Sue, for a very worthwhile session.
Sue's workshop was insightful and thought provoking. It made me evaluate how I currently handle feedback situations both giving and receiving and how I can improve in order to benefit both myself and my team. I plan to put the concepts I learned into practice straight away.
Sue ran a tailored ‘Unshakeable at Work’ workshop for our team of 30 women working within the construction industry. Sue made the experience of engagement through to debrief, seamless and enjoyable, as well as provided clear and tangible takeaways through her engaging workshop. It was a delight to have Sue join our team for the day to learn helpful tips to take away into our day-to-day lives. Thank you for taking the time to understand our organisation and team to deliver a workshop that hit the key deliverables as well as having fun.
I have worked closely with Sue to improve the culture of a small but integral team within a large organisation. Sue has a very good way of engaging the staff with the most difficult attitudes. Her program is structured but flexible and adaptively changes along the way in accordance with how the participants are responding. Sue is very confidential and respectful of all participants and manages to get the best out of people. Her support and feedback has been monumental. Sue was able to adapt her program to the virtual environment due to covid-19 restraints and has made the best of the technology available.
Sue ran a tailored workshop that supported us to increase feelings of connectedness, belonging and to improve our communication and collaboration across the department. Sue facilitated a brilliant session that helped us to understand each other's working styles – and there were lots of a-ha moments for all involved. By the end of the workshop, team members described themselves feeling: connected, part of a team, enlightened, seen, optimistic and inspired. The best part is, the learnings are continuing to support us to have meaningful conversations that are strengthening our ways of working (as individuals and as a team) beyond the workshop!
Sue has been great to work with for the past couple of years, tailoring and delivering ‘Unshakeable Leaders’ program to different levels of leadership within our organisation. Sue utilizes case studies as examples of her evidence-based model in a most engaging way.
Sue supported me through a personal, developed process which has enabled me to successfully return to work in a high-pressure, constantly changing and challenging environment. Her resources, tools and program have enabled me to develop processes to better manage my personal beliefs and behaviours in more positive ways.
Sue’s program and facilitation skills were evident in working with a diverse group of individuals from our organisation, providing them with the tools to tackle difficult issues, inspire their staff, and building their own leadership capability and confidence. This has assisted us in delivering improved customer service outcomes for our communities.
Part of growing as a Leader is being able to sit in that semi-uncomfortable zone where you know you are being stretched towards greatness. Having Sue in your corner during these times is a sure way to fast-track the learning and confidently push forward. I personally found Sue’s support essential for my growth and development.
Absolutely brilliant! Re-frames feedback and provides a logical and evidence-based framework. Very engaging, thought-provoking and informative.
Sue’s training is unique, engaging and thought-provoking. Her sessions are tailored, therefore getting maximum response and results. I have found both her group and individual sessions really useful and her methods workable.
I always leave one of your sessions thinking differently and it’s wonderful to know that the team as a whole has shared the same experience, so they get it!! Last week one of my team members even shared a curious insight into a customer experience, and we all got it!
I lead a team of five people who are required to deliver high quality timely legal, compliance and procurement advice. The team function is good, however, I wanted to enable them to move into a ‘great’ space. Sue delivered a half-day workshop that allowed the team to explore our own strengths and weaknesses. The workshop was extremely positive and I have been able to use the outcomes to facilitate further discussions with individuals to help guide and enhance their performance as individuals and as a team. Sue is extremely engaging and delivered the workshop in a friendly and non-confrontational manner. The team's feedback was unanimously positive. Thanks very much Sue!
I am grateful to Sue for expertly facilitating the People and Culture Team through the re-connect program. Sue was able to easily engage with the various personality styles across the team so that everyone felt heard and walked away with something new. The team is feeling more confident and connected as a result, with evidence of greater levels of collaboration between members instantly. Sue has left us with several simple tools to contribute to an inclusive and supportive team culture, along with a greater understanding each other's communication styles. This program comes highly recommended for anyone wanting to build a greater level of connection within their teams, and to move from good to great. Thanks again Sue!
I had the pleasure of organising and participating in the Feedback Fitness program, facilitated by Sue at Pacific Blue. The program was exceptional, providing both managers and staff with the opportunity to deeply dive into the art of feedback. Sue's expertise and engaging approach equipped us with the necessary tools to have meaningful and useful feedback conversations. This program has improved our communication skills and has been invaluable for our people’s growth and development.
Leadership coaching with Sue provided me the opportunity to reflect and break down some of the self-perpetuating myths I had about my leadership capabilities, sit comfortably with my authentic self, and embrace this leadership journey. I have incorporated this fresh perspective into my leadership going forward. I highly recommend Sue’s attentive and respectful coaching style.
I wish I’d learned about Sue Anderson’s Feedback Fitness framework years ago—it’s completely transformed my confidence in giving and receiving feedback. Clear, relatable, and full of engaging storytelling, the program helped our group connect with the topic. We asked questions, shared openly, and left ready to embed feedback into our respective workplace cultures.
Sue is very generous with sharing her Feedback Fitness framework and tool. A great session!
The training session Sue Anderson held at Warrnambool City Council focused on increasing cohesion and empowerment within the team, and it has proven to be incredibly valuable. The training aimed to help staff feel more calm, confident, and connected with one another, and it successfully achieved that goal.
The content was highly relevant, offering practical strategies to enhance communication, collaboration, and overall team dynamics. Sue Anderson created a supportive environment where team members felt encouraged to share their thoughts and experiences. As a result, everyone left the session feeling more confident in their roles and better equipped to handle challenges together.
We brought Sue in when our Executive Team had newly been formed to ensure that we had the strong foundations to deliver together, and Sue was able to raise our awareness of effective, clear communication and of how to perform as a high-functioning team. We are a stronger, better team as a result, and we have the skills to respectfully apply rigour around the work we do together as a team.
From a team coaching perspective, Sue was able to gain trust from the team to develop a baseline understanding of team culture. Sue works with the team to assess where staff are at in their careers and the role they play within the team. The independent review conducted by Sue has allowed improved staff morale, workplace behaviours and supported staff to make informed decisions. Sue’s coaching renders great results in building a resilient team.
Sue provided both 1:1 Coaching and Group Coaching support for our Leadership team. Feedback from participants was that the information provided was practical and things they can apply on the job. The questioning and insights provided during the sessions also provided some important reflection moments for the leaders involved.
