Many Data professionals are brilliant.
Their analysis? Razor-sharp.
Their models? Advanced.
Their attention to details? Exceptional.
But translating insights into a story that non-technical stakeholders understand...

I had the pleasure working with Gilbert to initiate and plan a 3-month learning experience for 12 Decision Scientist across multiple functional digital analytics areas. Unlike traditional hard skill online courses, Gilbert's program offers practical, interactive training sessions that break down silos and foster cross-functional collaboration. This unique approach ensures participants not only understand concepts but can apply them effectively in real-world scenarios that we will continue to stress-test and drive business value. Gilbert's commitment to collaboration is truly remarkable. Throughout our engagement, he consistently looked for opportunities to enhance our experience by actively asking for feedback and optimizing each workshop accordingly.

Gilbert and his team recently trained my team of data scientists, analysts and engineers using his #MindSpeaking method. My team are experts in their field and in their global roles they have to collaborate a lot with a variety of people and roles in 'the business'. Through making them aware of personality types (their own ánd those of our internal customers) and communication/presentation styles, they are now more aware of what is required to create a better mutual understanding and to get their message across. It's highly recommended for data experts who have to liaise with the business!

I confidently recommend Gilbert's MindSpeaking training and him as a trainer.
He's a strong listener and adapted the training to fit our needs that positively transformed the mindset and behaviour of our analytics colleagues.
His expertise and interactive training style improved the storytelling and stakeholder engagement skills of our colleagues. I endorse Gilbert for any organization aiming to enhance the soft skills of their analytical professionals.
