“Pete came highly recommended to me by another colleague.  He has worked with my senior team over an extended period of time and has really helped to galvanise my vision and mission of where the business is going.  He has motivated and inspired my team to become leaders in their own right which has enabled the business to grow from strength to strength.  It has been brilliant to observe the changes in my team and to see them grow and take on the challenge of growing a business in a highly competitive market. I would highly recommend Pete to anyone that is looking to energise, motivate and inspire their organisation.”  CEO – Feng Sushi

“Pete Cohen helped take our business to a whole new level. He worked with my entire team in December 2015. His style captivated everyone, the team listened and were fully engaged in the sessions that he delivered. He was able to communicate my vision to the entire team and this was extremely beneficial as they saw my desire for a unique customer experience from another perspective. He was able to unleash many of my teams potential and the results since his visit are incredible.  Ourr customer satisfaction has improved measurable, we have more returning visits to the hotel and our turnover and profits have increased considerably.  We are welcoming Pete back in February 2017 to continue the teams personal and professional development.” General Manager The Vine Hotel – Maderia

“We just came back from our International Conference, where about 60 representatives from 45 countries participated. This group is an amazing round of fascinating people, however, sometimes it is challenging to make sure that a message arrives as intended. We invited Pete to this three days event and asked him beforehand to help us with the following tasks:- To assist that attendees focus on a certain topics and really commit- To convert tough tasks into a real mindset, enabling people to truly adapt things at home once they left the conference- To translate very dry topics into a different, entertaining mode. Pete fulfilled all three tasks with superb skill, added with his great personality a very positive spirit and enhanced the power of the conference substantially. He got frenetic applause at the end and our team and the conference participants were very sure: we will invite Peter again for our next event. I could recommend his services strongly!” Babor

“Pete's enthusiasm is unlimited, his positivity infectious.  Comments from my staff “I would like to express how interesting and inspirational  I feel after today’s seminar.”  “I have come away  feeling motivated  and to be honest his ideas have given me food for thought.” And “he was very interesting to listen to and that he spoke to you and not at you, liked also audience participation” as well “I felt myself wanting to hear more, and for him to tell me more helpful tips and methods of gaining confidence and general life coaching, the session went quickly”  A huge plus for us as a company is Pete's follow up too.  There is nothing worse than a presentation that builds everyone up then they walk out and forget all about it.  Pete's delivered a number of short follow up videos to reinforce some of the key messages from his keynote presentation. An absolute must for any successful or growing company.  Every company in the U.K. should have a Pete Cohen presentation.” JT Development Solutions

“Without a doubt the best decision we made. We hired Pete as the guest keynote and motivational speaker for our annual training roadshow.
