Here is just a sample:
"I am writing to thank you for the incredibly positive impact that you're coaching has had at North London Auto Trader.
Never before in my career has one external trainer, clearly developed so many key individuals and dramatically improved the overall interaction of the management team. As a result of one half day initially, you were able to quickly determine our different behavioral styles. This fun but effective method was immediately embraced by all participants and the results simply staggering.
Over the past 12 months we have repeatedly recorded the highest growth of volume and revenue in the southern half of England for Trader Media. We have virtually non-existent staff turnover and are very proud of our staff morale. Your coaching program has played a significant role in all of the above.
I have worked with my Managing Director on two occasions in the past and have always had a good working relationship. However, even our relationship has improved as a result of time spent with yourself. I now understand that when dealing with her I need to be more task oriented, a bit more serious and less playful. Equally, she understands the importance of being interested in me as an individual.
We are all aware of each other's "colours" and this is now used in every day of our working lives. We now understand that our Field Sales Manager is not miserable, and no longer get offended when he does not wish a High Yellow like me a good morning. This is because we understand that his focus is on tasks and not relationships. Equally, because he has been expertly coached by yourself he now wishes me a good morning every day. This is a simple example of what you have achieved, but it is fun and highly effective.
Thanks again for making my job a lot easier, and for helping me to hold onto quality staff.
Yours sincerely,
David Beeney
Commercial Director,
Trader Media South"
"Your Personality Profiling System provided the most effective management tools I have seen in 20 years of Management.
You have giving me a fast and easy system that requires a manager to understand that they must adapt their personality to fit that of their subordinates and peers to get the most out of them, not the other way round.
You will be able to measure the success of Colour Styles in terms of better staff selection, higher productivity and a stronger team spirit.
Potential Unlimited techniques are informative, easy to implement & highly adaptable. Above all, it makes management fun!"

"A* for your Personal Profiling System!
Thanks to the invaluable input and training by James Knight members of the teaching and student body at Princess Helena College have been introduced to the undisputed benefits of his Personal Profiling System.
All involved have been provided with strategies to overcome their own weaknesses and to understand, and deal with the differences in people. For all age groups this has encouraged greater effectiveness in personal relationships and increased cooperation.
In working with James, the sixth form students have developed a fuller understanding of their natural behavioural style, how they operate under stress, what motivates them and triggers to help increase effectiveness.
Staff have benefited significantly from the program too. Relationships have improved and tensions reduced. Here at PHC teachers understand their pupils better and work rates and achievement levels have improved as a result. All staff cleaners, teachers, kitchen and ground staff, senior managers and administration have gained a great deal from understanding each other better.
James Knight's Personal Profiling System and Positive Self Programming CD's are immensely powerful tools. They allow individuals to develop their potential, and it provides them with the knowledge to improve their working relationships with those around them.
James' programmes scope for good, in environments such as schools and colleges, has Potential Unlimited! I recommend it without reservation."

"I was first exposed to James Knight's Personal Profiling System and Positive Self Programming CD's whilst employed by a market leading publishing business. I found myself nodding and agreeing to everything he was saying during his presentation and I was hooked. Since then I have been lucky enough to spend more time with James and worked to understand my style and how I can interact more effectively with the remaining three styles. It has also enabled me to work on the areas of development in terms of my natural characteristics so I become more effective in everything I do. I especially found the CD useful. Since I was first exposed to Potential Unlimited, I have left my previous employer and have now been running a specialist sales recruitment agency with my wife for 7 months and have never looked back. I believe the program has really helped me on the road to achieving my goals. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to develop themselves and their effectiveness in communicating with others."

"I wanted to drop you a line to thank you for all the work that you have done with North London Autotrader. Your Personality Profiling System and the language of Colour that you introduced has been embraced by all employees 100%. It has helped us to develop as a centre and to understand our client needs better. Personally I use colour styles and strategies with every one I meet, I feel this has made me a better person and ultimately has accelerated my career. Thank you for everything you have done for me personally and professionally."
Tony Doal,
General Sales Manager,
North London Autotrader
"Not only has your personality profiling system revolutionised the way in which I deal with my colleagues but it has also made a huge difference in every aspect of my personal life.
I have more patience with other colour styles now and can make allowances for their personality styles. I understand the drivers of other colours and this has allowed me to be far more successful and tolerant as a result.
I am able to modify my communication style and have seen an improvement in all my relationships both personal and professional. I cannot stress the usefulness of the principles enough to others; it has improved the way in which I communicate with others and the way in which staff within our organisation communicate with one another which in turn has lead to a more unified and successful work environment."
Tamara Coton
"As you know I have worked with the behavioural styles /colours for a few years now. Although skeptical at first when I read the personality profile about myself it was very true to my personality!
Your Personal Profiling System helps people to understand other peoples behaviour styles, and shows you how to adapt to different types of people in life.
I have found it very useful both at work and in my personal/family life. It has helped me communicate clearly with all different behaviour styles and get along with everyone."
Gary Jones
Sales Support Supervisor

"Your personality profiling system is great, and is so spot on about peoples different personalities! It has really helped me to think before interacting with people that are different colour styles to myself (For example I'm a very High Yellow so when talking to a High Green or a High Red I have to be more to the point. Prior to your training I would have waffled on."
Vikki Amour
Copy Collector Supervisor

"I'm sure you've heard this countless times but I think it bears repeating. The team were very engaged and enthused by the morning that you spent with them and "colours" conversations are to be heard constantly within the teams. Those people who couldn't attend (mostly from our Sales Support function) have also taken a real interest in the training.
I thought you may be interested in a quick anecdote from the past couple of days. A member of the Telesales team approached me to discuss her performance against target for the month. Rather than taking her usual (yellow) approach, she'd prepared some statistics and a measurable plan before talking to me because she now knows that I'm a Green!
I hope you enjoyed your trip to Norwich. We look forward to welcoming you back."
