“
I recently had the privilege to participate in a full day “Extraordinary Leader” Workshop that Ian conducted.
I was genuinely impressed with his facilitation skills and even more so by the way that he brought the key themes and important messages to life.
We subsequently had a 1/1 session during which he very skilfully coached me through ways that I could become more effective in a practical sense, but also inspired me to take concerted action to achieve my full leadership potential.
Having spent nearly forty years in sales based on three continents, I can honestly say that Ian brought a really refreshing approach to his craft.
Personally, I found him to be highly engaging and credible—and was left with the distinct impression that he very much ‘walks the talk’.
All in all, time exceptionally well spent with an exceptionally gifted Chief Enabling Officer – and fine gentleman.

I had the privilege to listen and learn from Ian Tan recently.
He is an exceptional trainer on the subject of Leadership.
He is passionate in nurturing individuals to be leaders, and to be the best person one can be through self discovery and self awareness.
What makes him different from other trainer I have encountered is that he truly connects with the audience! He went the extra mile to share a couple of great articles on the subject of self awareness (post training) which I found to be really helpful and relevant.
