      <title>Participant comments on workshop - Leverage - Business Simulation</title>
      <description>A &lt;a href="http://www.multicoach.biz/events"&gt;Business Simulation&lt;/a&gt; half-day workshop was conducted on 27 October 2010 funded by &lt;a href="http://www.enterpriseconnect.gov.au" target="_blank"&gt;Enterprise Connec&lt;/a&gt;t and delivered by MultiCOACH Associates &lt;a href="http://au.linkedin.com/in/paulcurtisperth" target="_blank"&gt;Paul Curtis&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://au.linkedin.com/in/philburtoninoz" target="_blank"&gt;Phil Burton&lt;/a&gt;. We asked some of the attendees what they would say to someone who was considering coming to this workshop in future ...&lt;br&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;A great presentation that opened my eyes to the effects of the different variables in my business.&amp;nbsp; Paul and Phil have a very relaxed but professional presentation style that I found refreshing.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;"&amp;nbsp; Ian Armstrong, Director, BStrategic.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;One of the best seminars I've been at to get you thinking about your business.&amp;nbsp; Very professionial.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;" Russel Hearnden, Owner, EmbroidMe.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;You couldn't get a better return on 3.5 hours.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;"&amp;nbsp; Geoffrey Beer, Managing Director, Innovicom.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;I wish I'd had the benefit of this type of seminar in the early stages of building a business.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;"&amp;nbsp; Karl May, Sales Manager, Bisalloy Steels Pty Ltd.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Fresh and eye opening.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;"&amp;nbsp; Paul Newman, General Manager, Perigean Solutions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;I would do it again to solidify my learning.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;" John Suermondt, Director of Marketing, Harrison Assessments Pty Ltd.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;A fun and interesting way to learn.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;"&amp;nbsp; Jacqui Williamson, Owner, Tak2 Home Inspections.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Good, practical, moves easily.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;"&amp;nbsp; Steve O'Keefe, General Manager, Trident Insurance Group.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
What more need we say?&amp;nbsp; We're looking forward to meeting you or a colleague at the &lt;a href="http://www.multicoach.biz/events"&gt;next workshop&lt;/a&gt;!</description>

&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;If you don't have enough hours in a day, you must do this seminar.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;" Russell Hearnden, Owner, EmbroidMe.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;A 'must have' session for all busy people who have unsconsciously been consumed by their business.&amp;nbsp; A real poke in the ribs for line managers!!.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;"&amp;nbsp; Alastair Dixon, Business Development Manager, intEQ Interiors.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Just do it.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;"&amp;nbsp; Robyn Binks, BiZFiT Project Officer, SBDC.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Highly productive event.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Paul is a superb facilitator who brings humour and enlightenment into what is often seen as a dry topic.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;"&amp;nbsp; Charles Barnard, Business Advisor, The Australian Industry Group.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;"&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Good sense of humour which keeps it interesting while communicating the content effectively.&amp;nbsp; Well worth attending.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;" Mike Jensen, Contractor, WCIT.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
