Who we work with
What our clients are saying
It’s without doubt one of the best training tools I’ve come across for studying. I’m a visual learner and the study material was easy to understand and complimented my research and reading of the learning material, perfectly.
Empower development provides our members with great virtual sessions, accompanied with useful resources, to get individuals thinking about their career progression and the steps they can take personally to achieve what they want.
I left with a much better understanding about creating a brand for myself, how to carry myself in meetings and tough situations and many useful tips on how to engage in meaningful career related conversations
Empower Development are not only knowledgeable in the professional and development field but their knowledge of the insurance market is what really makes them stand out from other training providers.
“My Underwriting team has a real mix of personalities and working styles. The SDI session has really helped us understand each other and made my communication with my team a lot more effective. The trainer’s pragmatic approach and understanding of what we do made the session relevant. I did not expect to gain so much from one morning.”
“Samantha hosted the SDI course for our Global Terrorism strategy day. Underwriters from the London team as well as our international offices came to take part. Samantha organised the training day very well and was extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of it. She coached individuals on the results and what it meant to them and their daily jobs. The whole global team was extremely impressed, and I would recommend this course which has been highly beneficial to everyone that took part.”
“The coaching sessions helped me to gain a clear sense of purpose enabling me to focus my efforts on what matters most to reach my potential”
“I experience the coaching environment as a great place to bring business related problems whilst transitioning into my new role and managing a new team. I was able to explore challenges that have been whizzing around my head for a while by bringing them to the table and discussing honestly with my coach.”
“The attendees really enjoyed the Personal Branding course delivered by Empower Development and have taken a great deal away with them to use in their professional networks both internally and across the market.”
“Sam is an extraordinary L&D and insurance professional. The courses she designs are creative, professional, fun and, most importantly, tailored to insurance professionals. Working together, I saw first-hand how engaged she was with helping people at all levels develop both personally and professionally using a blend of training, mentoring and coaching. I would recommend Sam to anyone looking to develop effective business skills in a credible, industry-specific way.”
