“This is very effective tool to be used on day to day basis.”
Bring awareness on ourselves and how we interact with others.
I want to recommend this course to colleagues and other institutions (other consulting firms, IBs, corporates, MBA students, etc). Through the High Stakes Communication training, we were provided with very well structured techniques to deal with tough situations in a business setting. It was also helpful to increase the awareness in the subtle micro messages that might have a great impact on the team’s performance. The training was effective as we had many group sessions to digest the concept and discuss in a group to apply the methodology into the real business situation- how to discuss sensitive topics, finding common ground via Shared Pool, maintaining safety in a tough situation, etc.
Hands on practical knowledge than I will apply at home tonight with wife and kids and going forward at work. Well delivered.
Great way to approach communication challenge that daily life presents. Very detailed and imforative training.
This is a training which provided lots new ideas in persuading. It changes people's mindset. Additionally it is set up with funny pictures and interactive activities. I like it and learned a lot.

“Neil taught us how to improve immensely while making just small changes in what we do.”
I have just completed the online CPD course, "How to develop negotiation power, Part 1". It was a very engaging way to cover the subject of the psychology and practice of successful negotiation, tailored for an audience in a law firm. The course, which took me exactly 90 minutes to complete, consists of a mixture of video content, questions requiring written answers on a note pad facility, and multiple-choice questions. Although I have prior experience of the theories behind the learning, I found it useful and pitched at the right level to avoid me feeling either patronised or fed technobabble. I would recommend the course to any solicitor in private practice, not only those working in dispute resolution but also those who have ever had to sell in a challenging market - and that's all of us.
I recently completed Evolution-U’s online negotiation power training. Like most professionals, I have had my fair share of online content during 2020 however the video and content quality of this course make it one that I will remember. The quirky use of avatars and storyline to get across important points on how to develop negotiation power were a good reminder to me, even as a senior lawyer, how small things can have a significant impact. I recommend this online course not only to lawyers, but any professional that wants to get an edge in negotiation.
The online training is really good! I have been a partner at a corporate law firm for 15 years, winning countless clients and mandates, but your online training has given me a great refresher (and a lot of good tips) on negotiations. I could have avoided giving up a lot of fees over the years! The training is a great introduction for first-time negotiators as well as seasoned professionals. Highly recommended!
Neil trained the group of us (BNPP staff members) on negotiation skills for the last 2 days in the form of an online webinar. Neil talked in a well-structured way and with his own experiences easily explained the theories to us. He has a wealth of personal experiences in business, investment and financial industry which have benefited us in the training session with real-world examples that enhance our understanding of the topic. He also has good history knowledge which he inserted in the training, and made it fun and illustrating. Neil talks with substance. I found not a minute wasted in any of his talking. He addressed our questions with both concepts and real-world examples or personal experiences. I recommend his training to anyone who is interested in effective communication, negotiation, work better with other people. I have already done so with my own teams and my service provider.
I found Neil’s online CPD course on developing negotiation power (Part 1) to be extremely useful and well structured. Not only did it explain the theory behind negotiation principles but it applied them to familiar legal situations to provide valuable context. The interactive nature of the course encouraged me to consider how I have approached negotiation in the past and also how I would improve my negotiation skills going forward. The importance of developing negotiation power should not be underestimated as a transferable skill, especially by legal practitioners, and this course ably demonstrates how effective negotiation can be key to achieving a successful outcome.
Neil led an online development course I took part in on managing and effectively resolving conflict. Throughout the course, Neil showed himself to be extremely knowledgeable, considerate and an excellent communicator with people trying to understand how to get more out of themselves. The insights he was able to share have already proven valuable to me in both my professional and personal life, and I am better placed to drive results for having taken his course. If you're considering taking one of his courses or hiring him as a consultant, I feel that he would undoubtedly have a positive impact on your skillset and the performance of your organisation - I whole-heartedly endorse him to you. Thanks for your help and guidance Neil!
Neil Orvay is Asia's best soft skills and presentation skills coach. Hands down. Engaging, passionate and intense; Neil will have your attention gripped from the 1st minute and you will go away feeling inspired after every session. I've seen Neil coach in person and on Webinar; it's hard to keep the audience's full attention on a Webinar but Neil will grip your attention with his storytelling, content and mental breaks to keep you engaged. I personally attended the course Present Like a Pro: Not only will you learn about the psychology and science behind communication and persuasion but you'll experience it first hand and walk away being able to apply the same techniques that will change your life forever.
A session with Neil is vital for anyone looking to enhance their communication and presentation skills. This applies to the home or workplace and especially useful in sales. My most recent course with Neil - 'Webinar Like A Pro,' was a good example of adapting to the times and utilising these strategies in webinar presentations. Neil’s USP is that he is a seasoned entrepreneur and has worked across a variety of industries. The education and theory he provides are practical and easy to implement from day one. In an increasingly diverse and crowded world of communications, everyone is looking to differentiate and be heard - Neil will help you achieve this. Having lived and worked in Asia for over 20 years I have not come across a better trainer that will add value across the board.
