What Our Clients Say

I thought I had a good working environment and space but after the workflow coach coming in I am now better organized at my desk and this makes the workflow much easier than before.  Great ideas to make your job easier and more structured.  Has helped me out heaps! 
Wendy McCormick, CSP Administrator

A very useful method in the home and workplace with saving time and to get jobs completed instead of procrastinating.  Very beneficial to my whole job.  I would recommend to all levels of positions in the workplace. 
Debbie Shotter, Training/Administration Officer

Workflow coaching has enabled me to become motivated and excited about my work once again. My working day and workload is manageable and I have learnt some positive behaviour to keep me on track even through the more boring or challenging areas.
Amanda Hinks, Midwifery Educator

My training was challenging, testing and utterly useful.  I would thoroughly recommend the Workflow Group to others.  The Workflow Group brings new viewpoints that are worth embracing, regardless of whether you feel on top of your role or not.  
Honor Lymburn, PA to Director of Nursing

Before completing the workflow training I spent a lot of time thinking about work at home and worrying that I would forget important tasks. As a result of the training I am a lot more organised have a great system in place to keep track of and plan the work I do. I go to meetings organised and have completed projects I previously could not find time to do. I fully recommend this training to anyone wanting to de-stress their work and home life!
Kareen McLeod, Nurse Educator - Emergency Dept

Workflow coaching provided me with the tools and techniques I needed to transform a very hectic and knee jerk delivery personality, into a calmer more productive employee. I would advise anyone who has trouble delivering or tracking their workload to take this training and develop into a more well rounded and organised employee.    
Jarrod Bates, Department Manager, Asset Management

“This is the best time/workload management raining I have received in my professional career.  The key to this methodology is that when you fall off the cart as will always happen, it is so simple to get back on and in the flow again. This is great value and my productivity and organisation has improved immeasurably to the overall benefit of my business and the company.”
Divisional Manager Industries,

“Just being more organised and less cluttered has helped a lot.  Making decisions straight away rather than picking up the same piece of paper over and over again. Making use of To Do's rather than meeting entries all the time.” 
Clay Jordan, Manager

“Workflow coaching was very beneficial in helping to regain control of my life and work balance. Tips and methods around dealing with e-mails, heavy workloads and delegation skills have allowed me to free up my time to be spent on the things that are most important to me both at work and at home.” 
Paul Petrowski, Manager

The programme helps you with clarity about what your work is and where you should put your effort or focus. It also helps you to hardwire that in to the way you work.
Ruth Hamilton, Group Manager Human Resources

I strongly recommend the coaching provided by the Workflow Group as essential for anyone in a work environment where they are required to deliver results in an organised and timely manner. Many of us may be specialists in our area of expertise but lack the administrative skills to ensure that our work flows efficiently and to avoid being weighed down by paper, emails and demands which become urgent because of our inefficiency. Workflow training provides a path for us to implement commonsense methods of completing daily and weekly tasks in a way that frees up more time to work on new projects or simply enjoy more leisure or family time. 
Michael Joyce Farm Consultant, LIC, Dairy Farmer, Taranaki Regional Councillor

A liberating experience. Workflow really challenges your comfort zone and methods and promotes more control and certainty in your work life.
Floyd Riley, Principal Engineer of Projects

The Workflowgroup training was one of the most dramatically transformative educational experiences I have had, and yet for the most part, it didn't seem like hard work. Saul's gentle unravelling of the topics and training to commit to action here and now, by acting here and now on your own work, were powerful and effective ways to convey the information and mindset that form the core of the learning. I had always been regarded for my efficiency, but since the training, am probably twice as effective as before. I would thoroughly recommend the training to any busy manager.
Graeme Beals, Managing Director

The Workflow training has made a significant difference to the way the majority of my staff plan and implement their work and manage information. It has given them the tools to proactively plan and manage their time in an efficient and productive way. They are all much more aware of the 'value' of time and how they use their own and the time of others. They prioritise their work to ensure they are doing the most important and high value work first. It has made us all much more focussed on our goals.  Using the Workflow tools staff can see historically what they have achieved in a day/week/month and it is very empowering. Saul is a very effective presenter in the group scenario getting key information across clearly and relevantly. One to one he has a quietly insistent manner when asking the hard questions but is non threatening to staff and really gets people thinking, responding and changing their behaviour quite rapidly.  
Jane Beals, Managing Director

I feel that both my physical work space and my mental head space has been transformed - what once was a disorganised uncalculated mess, has now become an organised, planned controlled environment. I have gained confidence and ability and am finding that my attitude towards my work, my team mates, manager and co-workers, have improved and strengthened.  
Linda Vogt, Property and Facilities

If you are serious about becoming more efficient and ultimately more productive in your work, while also making life easier for yourself, then I would recommend enlisting the help of Saul Ireland and the Workflow Group. Saul was professional, very easy to work with and in 3 short sessions gave me the tools to manage my workflow better and significantly improved my effectiveness as an employee and a manager.
Gerard Langford, Communications Manager

A direct report wanted (and needed) this workflow training. It was recommended that the manager (me) should do it too so that there is support from the top down and that others can see the positive results and see the need for change. I accepted, thinking that I was pretty organised. It did not take at all long for the trainer to come to understand my role and responsibilities. The trainer soon identified several inefficiencies such as doubling handling of emails and incoming mail and introduced me to a new way of working. It is a very systematic approach to planning the wise use of your time. It is very intensive but worth the effort. Expect to be transformed!
Ralph Broad, Manager Consents

The Workflow training has been an excellent professional development course for me personally.  I am much more aware of the 'flow' of work within my control and have greater insights into how to assist/support the productivity of others that I work with.  The many small changes that were suggested have led to significant increases with my productivity and as a result I feel better able to direct my time to the long term high impact tasks. A fantastic course.
Craig Campbell-Stuart, Communications Development Advisor

Before my workflow coaching I was spending lots of time opening emails and not taking any action on them. I had a lot of my outstanding work in my head and my stress levels were high. Now I have a system that works for me and I now know where I am at with projects. I therefore now feel more organised, have more time to spend looking at what I'm doing rather than just doing it, and therefore I am now less stressed and feel more in control. I recommend Work flow coaching to anyone.
Carrie Thorne, Programme Coordinator

Saul & the workflow group are well organised and I gained a lot of useful tips and tricks to help stay on track and manage my time more effectively. 
Rachel Hooker, Personal Assistant

Workflow coaching does exactly what it says it will do.  At the end of the process work really does flow through clear and simple systems.  As a result of the coaching my mind has become free of nagging things to remember and I feel absolutely in control of what I need to do and what I need to follow up on.
Simon Cayley, Chief Executive Officer
