Jenni Nixon - Business owner I first met Kevin in 2008, we were both attending an NLP Practitioner training course. We did not really chat initially until we had the opportunity to work together in one of the practise sessions. To this day it remains one of my favourite NLP sessions. In the time since then we have worked together on a number of projects and supported each other’s personal and business goals through exchanges of personal coaching sessions, Shared work opportunities, involvement as trainers and facilitators in each other’s businesses and as trusted advisors and friends. Kevin is someone who actively lives his values. He is highly resourceful and manages to bring a fresh vibrant energy to every situation. He has a natural ability to engage with people and a sincere desire to see people achieve the best results they can. Kevin is always actively pursuing new learning, and takes every opportunity to grow, expand and improve. I have called on Kevin may times to assist me to move past situations if I feel I am getting stuck and always find his approach to be useful, sincere and fun. As a somewhat strong minded individual I appreciate his light-hearted yet relevant way in which he challenges my thinking to help me shift my perception to find ways to achieve my outcome more successfully. I have always found value in Kevin’s input and am inspired by the way he puts everything he learns into practise and applies what he teaches first. He is energetic and exudes charisma I believe that Kevin’s diverse and creative approach to what he does coupled with his ability to engage people makes his a very valuable member of any team and I have always enjoyed every opportunity to work with him.
