Kaye has facilitated a number of workshops and seminars for me.  These include professional development workshops for clinical midwives and midwifery group practice midwives.  Through effective communication and facilitation, Kaye has imparted skills and knowledge to these midwives to enable growth and development in practice.

Additionally, Kaye has provided coaching for midwifery staff who are developing their practice through a structured framework of practice development.
Evaluation of these events from staff and participants is consistently of a high standard.  Kaye is a true motivator and demonstrates an innovative and dynamic style.  Kaye is an outstanding facilitator!

Kaye has facilitated several session for the staff in the Intensive Care Unit.   The sessions delivered were aimed at developing self awareness and leadership skills which involved staff having to look at their own personality types and leadership styles.

Prior to the arranged dates Kaye ensured she had an understanding of why the sessions were being offered, what the desired outcomes were and what were the participant’s expectations.  Kaye was very professional in her approach to the sessions and came well prepared with all the necessary equipment to engage the staff, not only audibly but included tactile and visual learning tools.

During the session kaye assessed the varied styles of the participants and facilitated the sessions to ensure it offered a range of ways for staff to relate to the topic and gain the most insight into the learning opportunities.
Kaye is a dynamic facilitator who ensures her sessions are creative and encourages the participant to be engaged in the sessions by encouraging staff to add their input.

The feedback received by the participants from the sessions was very positive and they all recommended the sessions for staff considering developing their self awareness and leadership skills in the future.

I highly recommend Kaye to facilitate education sessions and hope to engage her expertise again in the near future.
