"The Brain Friendly Learning Workshop with Kimberley Hare lived up to its promise - it was, quite simply, the best learning experience I have ever participated in. Kimberley skillfully and magically created 3 days of pure learning heaven. I would highly recommend this workshop for trainers, facilitators - and anyone passionate about learning"

"The most fun I've ever had with my clothes on!"

"This workshop represents pure gold for trainers, coaches, facilitators and consultants!"

"I've been training and consulting for 15 years - and believed there wasn't much more I could learn. I was so wrong. This workshop challenged me to think about what I'm doing in a fundamental and powerful way"


"As a training novice, I came away with loads of ideas I can use immediately - and perhaps as important - ten times the confidence I had before"

"I have been aware of Kimberley’s skills for many years and rate her very highly as an exceptional facilitator. She has a very personable way about her and manages to get a group to the end of their session having achieved their aims without dominating the day. Many teams are not aware of the skills she has used to keep them focused on their objectives. She is highly skilled at asking the right questions to get the information she needs and to be able to defuse emotionally charged situations. She is calm and assertive without being domineering. Many groups are grateful for the framework she provides to enable them to maximise their time together without having to worry about managing the process themselves. In this way she adds great value to events where she is facilitating and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to any group with the utmost confidence. Kimberley is a superb facilitator and coach. Her abilities in all people-development activities is second to none. She has responded to requests for support at very short notice and has performed to very high standards, earning herself repeat business from previously cynical clients. The team she gathers around her all perform to equally excellent standards."

"We worked with Kim Hare and some of her colleagues from Kaizen over a period of two years during my tenure as CEO of The Whites Group - a 500 person motor dealership business in South East England. Throughout that time I found Kim to be an outstanding advisor - designing innovative ground breaking programmes to push through major change throughout our business. She won not only my confidence but that of all the other key staff, and was also generous in connecting with and inspiring other staff from all levels of the business. Kim facilitated very large group sessions as well as smaller ones. She did this with great energy and a sense of fun, combined with an ability to really move people and address significant business and personal issues. I personally learnt a great deal from her that I continue to use today"

Lindsay Levin, Founder and Partner, LeadersQuest

"Kimberley joined us to help define and then to facilitate the change programme that we needed to implement to meet the targets and other challenges of our new owners. The project was very successful and long after Kim had finished, people referred to the work that she had done and how it had a positive effect on them personally as well as the company as a whole. I would summarise just some of the key achievements as follows:

  • Kim helped us to create a more trusting culture where people felt secure that the company was dealing with them fairly and honestly. This helped people to open up which in turn helped Kim to realise the real issues that she needed to help us with.
  • She got some of our most reticent characters to get involved, to participate and eventually to contribute positively. As this was done within group activities, and some of the people were quite shy, this was a major achievement. This created a snow-ball effect encouraging everyone to participate more and actively wanting to be involved.
  • She helped to find a number of “hidden stars” amongst our staff and this led to several people moving into management roles and enjoying the process where previously they might have been cynical and would probably have rejected the idea out of hand."
