"In my role as Head of Corporate Training for RasGas, it was a pleasure to have you join us three times for Powerful Consulting Skills. This program has consistantly delivered both quality and transferable skills, that my team of HRBPs, Training Analsts, Business Process Analysts,etc, can transfer directly into the workplace; giving us an immediate ROI.
I look forward to working with you in my role for Middle East and Africa, to bring a fresh perspective to supporting our business."
"To say Innovator is to understate Ms. Wood. Ms. Wood offers a unique service to international clients with varied needs. She has a clear understanding of the challenges facing management and due to her tenure she is able to address issues immediately and with experience. Her extensive network enables her to continual enhance GWA's service. I would recommend that anyone would benefit from not only speaking but also working with Ms. Wood and GWA.
